First of all, don't wear socks and sandals when abroad and secondly be selective about your tour and your tour company. Ask questions and be specific. TIP 1: Ask what the tour covers especially concerning admission to sites. Most tours only take you there, but you're on your own to pay for the admission. TIP 2: Ask where are they going to take you and what if you don't want to go? TIP 3: Make sure to ask how is the tour? TIP 4: Your tour will not just be you and your partner but a group of people stuffed in a van. You'll have the couple from Mexico City with their kids, a couple on a romantic getaway that is constantly pawing at each other, the other usual suspects. Now with that being said, It was our last day in Guanajuato. We could have spent the day relaxing and gawking at all the US travelers wearing socks and sandals or we could have gone to the Mercado again but we decided to go on a tour to see San Miguel de Allende since all the influencers on YT and IG said,' It's a must-see!' - More about that in another review. Our tour company said that they would take us to Dolores Hidalgo to visit the tomb of Jose Alfredo Jimenez, the museum, an artisan shop, a restaurant, then San Miguel de Allende. For some perspective, Guanajuato to San Miguel is about 1 hour and 10 minutes by car and Uber was charging about $70 dollars one way. So, the tour option was the least expensive option. Our second stop was the museum of Jose Alfredo Jiminez. Who was Jose Alfredo Jiminez? He was most likely the most important, prolific, and popular composer of Ranchera music in Mexico during the 20th century. Do you remember Hector from Coco, Miguel's grandfather? Hector was loosely based on Jose Alfredo Jiminez, although there are many similarities. He lived every moment of life and perhaps lived multiple lifetimes before passing at 47 years old. The entrance fee, a couple of US dollars, to enter the museum which is really Jose Alfredo Jiminez's home is worth it. Your guide will start you with a large mosaic of Jose Alfredo with all the influences current and past. Then you're pretty much on your own. TIP 5: Take your time but be observant about the amount of time your tour allows. If you're on your own via rental car or Uber, take all the time The patio area and the other collections are super cool. I really liked the bust in the garden by the bathrooms and the music sheets. The kitchen was spectacular. I could almost see Jose's wife or perhaps a kitchen hand slapping masa to make tortillas and smell the pollo colorado bubbling in a pot. The gift shop is your last stop before leaving. There are so cool souvenirs but skip the magnets and the shot glasses. The museum of Jose Alfredo Jiminez was definitely the highlight of our tour and I wish we had a little more time to explore and ask questions. Maybe next time.

With no expectations we were delighted by this spectacular property. I would give the magical Museo Ex-Hacienda San Gabriel de Barrera gardens six stars and the manor, 4 stars. This hacienda was once a major world influence of silver. Built at the end of the 1600's for a Captain Gabriel de la Barrera, heir to the Valenciana silver mine, the grounds stretch over 22,000 square meters. The Hacienda is divided into 16 areas, complete with 17 gardens, all groomed to a different style surrounding the various manor buildings and small plazas. I walked through the various gardens toward the manor house. The weather started out sunny, then some gray clouds came and after a few drops, the sun reappeared. The property is a photographers dream. This place is a must see when traveling in the Guanajuato/San Miguel de Allende area.
