While most of the tour staff generally are not proficient in English or Spanish, even if they say they are, they usually have some knowledge of the historical and cultural areas of Central Mexico.
Take a tour that covers cultural centers like Mexico City (walk and drive along the Reforma, the city's main drag, or visit the pyramids of the Sun and Moon in Teotihuacan). You can visit any one of these historic cities: San Miguel de Allende (where Mexico's revolution against Spain began); Guanajuato (learn about the mummies in one of Mexico's most beautifully preserved colonial cities); Querétaro with its elegant colonial architecture; Dolores Hidalgo (cradle of independence and a designated national historic monument); and many other historic locations. Last but not least, go on one of their special guided tours to see the marvel of the annual return of the Monarch Butterflies to their wintering grounds in México, or visit a hand-painted pottery operation in the mountains near Guanajuato.
Find a tour company that has a mission is to make your stay in Mexico as comfortable, informative, and rewarding an experience as possible. Eliminate the hassle and broaden your horizons. Don't leave your Mexico vacation to chance.
If you haven't experienced the Magical Powers of San Miguel de Allende, start enjoying life and come on down!
