They allowed us plenty of time to sight-see on our own, gave us detailed history on each landmark in Guanajuato and even gave us a generous amount of time to stop for dinner in San Miguel de Allende. My mother and I went on the tour knowing we had to be exactly back at the bus terminal at 7:30 pm. We let the tour guides (Gabriel Alcaraz who narrated the tour & Jose Luis who was our driver) know ahead of time of our time crunch and they were more than accommodating! The tour was kept at an easy pace but always mindful of the time. We of course made it to the terminal on time to catch our bus back to Guadalajara! Mom and I were so thankful they remembered and did their very best to help us out. Great customer service from Gabriel and Jose Luis. We will never forget their kindness! Fantastic tour!

Despite the fact that I speak only enough Spanish to count and order a meal, I couldn't resist the…read morechance to join a Callejoneada while in Guanajuato. For a price of $8US per person, this is a lot of entertainment even if you have no idea what's being said. You will no doubt notice the attractively costumed performers in town, mostly at the Jardin de la Union. It's these performers who will lead you through the streets in the evening, playing their instruments, singing, and telling stories. They will also offer additional things for sale including huge clay pots containing your choice of tequila or vodka drinks and other things I won't mention, not wanting to give away any surprises. In truth, I had essentially no idea of what was being said but in no time I was singing along and swaying to the lyrics of one song that was oft repeated. It's fair to say that everyone had a smile on their face pretty much the entire time. There's a good deal of walking, up and down the charming streets of Guanajuato as well as stopping for stories, jokes, and music. I got my tickets on TripAdvisor but you can also purchase from tourist booths in town or from the performers themselves. I can't imagine coming to Guanajuato and not partaking in the Callejoneada experience. Surely more fun if you understand the stories but the joy of the whole performance is undeniable.

Even though this is a great event to take when you visit this city, you have to be aware of all the…read morepromises they make in order to hook you up. We came here on December 28th (yes, Mexican fools day) and when we parked our cars we we're approached by Miguel, who is the Public Relations director of Tuna Compostela. He gave us a good deal as he did not charge us for our kids and gave us an adult for free and that if we wanted to go, we had to purchase them right away as they have limited attendance. BTW we were a group of 18 people. So far it was good until we showed up to our 8:15pm show where he had promised we were going to have 80 min of "callejoneada" with a big entertainer (El Gordo), as well as a "porrón" for our fruit juice. He did say they no longer serve alcohol. Well, long story short we did not get our "porrón", they started with a nice show in front of Iglesia de San Diego, and then departed to start the "callejoneada" with approximately 150 people!!!! It was insane! We could barely catch up with the crowd. We decided to go back and select a different show. We waited until the one at 9pm as it seemed less attended. Well, we were probably over a hundred customers walking along the stretched streets of Guanajuato. It was scary at some point as you could barely move in some of the streets...some of them are so narrow that it can only fit 2 persons! So you can imagine waiting for all the crowd to go through this bottleneck. As we moved along, they played nicely. However with so many people in the streets, we didn't arrive at the most iconic place: "Callejón del Beso". You could barely get into that street. So they left us a block from there and then they finished the show. It's good if they truly adhered to their promises. But this was disheartening as we won't trust again next time we are here...we will walk on our own and just watch their show at the church. Disappointed...

The mine was originally started in the 1700s when silver was found on the surface. It was originally a few hundred feet and then expanded to about 1500 feet in depth around 1806. They say a third of the silver that Spain got from the New World came from this one mine. if you go into the mine office there is a map on the wall showing the maze of underground passages.Today the mine is owned by a Canadian company, and it is still in operation, but he said they use a different entrance.

He said he may have to charge me to return. He had not even been gone 15 minutes. I thought well ok I'll give him a tip for his time.

I had 2 credit cards and my Driver's license. In the zipped area i HAD three bills of $500 pesos and $40 in us currency. Cards were there but when I unzipped it I only had $20. I asked him where my money was and he kept saying he didn't know maybe it fell out of my walled which was zipped up when he handed it to me. This went on for several minutes until I finally just told him I was going to report him which i did. He had the nerve to say "I thought you were going to give me a tip."
