About this tour
This tour begins in front of the Cervantes Theater, right by the statues of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza. Its aim is to show you the secrets of a city with almost 400 years of history.
During the tour we will walk through different areas of the city: you will see the old riverbed, now an underground street, and walk through the old entrance to the city. We will visit churches and monuments that witnessed the Spanish colonial era and the War of Independence, and learn the stories behind local festivities and the legends of Guanajuato.
Join us on a walking tour lasting 2.5 to 3 hours and discover the history of this wonderful city.
Highlights
- The old riverbed, now an underground street
- The baroque and neoclassical architecture of the historic center
