Stay Late
If your schedule allows, stay a little while. San Miguel de Allende is a colonial town in the high desert of central Mexico, known for its cobblestone streets, golden light, and centuries-old cathedral. It has long drawn artists and travelers, and the food is exceptional. Below are our favorite nearby adventures and restaurants we love in town.
Horseback Riding
Coyote Canyon Adventures run exceptional excursions in the canyons outside of town.
Hot Air
Balloon
Sunrise trips floating above the high desert as light comes up over the colonial rooftops.
Casa Dragones Tasting
