Highlights
As we guide you through this magical place, we'll share what we have gleaned through hands-on experience & years of study about ancient Mesoamerica, the legends & wisdom of local people. You will hear about each place and its cultural significance as you journey along the path the ancients took to reach the pyramid. We've taken 10,000+ people on tours since the site opened to the public in 2011. Our passion is relating information that is just coming to light in an area recently investigated in an enjoyable way. We hope to see you soon. This is "a must do while you’re here…!" "An experience that can’t be missed." "Don’t get left behind."

About San Miguel de Allende
San Miguel de Allende is a colonial hill town in Mexico's central highlands, with a pink-stone church, cobbled streets, galleries and an art school.
San Miguel de Allende sits at about 1,900 metres in the Bajío highlands of Guanajuato, a town of cobbled streets and painted colonial houses built when silver and trade made the region rich. The Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, with its pink sandstone spires, dominates the Jardín, the main square. The town takes the second half of its name from Ignacio Allende, a leader of the independence movement born here, and the historic centre is a World Heritage site.
