En cuanto a los lugares y la guía Monse un 100/10 todo fue muy muy bueno! Mi una inconformidad y queja es que en la actividad Civitatis como que hay que estar en el punto de recogida (hotel benidorm) a las 5:30, nosotros no estábamos hospedados en ese hotel y llegamos a las 5:20 y nos recogieron a las 6 am ( esto nos es culpa de los encargados del tour dado que en su organización si decía 6 am) tuvimos que estar esa media hora en esa calle sola y desolada a expensas de ser robados, Translate this opinion into English.

As for the places and the guide Monse, 100/10, everything was very, very good! My one complaint is that in the Civitatis activity you have to be at the pick-up point (Benidorm hotel) at 5:30, we were not staying at that hotel and we arrived at 5:20 and they picked us up at 6 am (this is not the fault of those in charge of the tour since in their organization it did say 6 am) we had to stay that half hour on that lonely and desolate street at risk of being robbed, Opinion translated.

Esta opción es altamente recomendable para disfrutar de la preciosa ciudad colonial de San Miguel de Allende una vez te has relajado en las termas. Tan sólo tener en cuenta que; no permiten acceso con comida a La Gruta y que se vuelve concurrida a medida que avanza la mañana. Es un destino muy familiar. Pese a disponer de varias piscinas, no hay ninguna sólo para adultos. Translate this opinion into English.

This option is highly recommended to enjoy the beautiful colonial city of San Miguel de Allende once you have relaxed in the hot springs. Just keep in mind that they do not allow access with food to La Gruta and that it becomes crowded as the morning progresses. It is a very family-friendly destination. Despite having several pools, there is none just for adults. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos recogieron puntual, éramos 51 personas, el viaje para llegar a San Miguel es bien largo, al llegar nuestro guía nos dio un tour de una hora por iglesias y nos dejó en el Mercado de artesanías... tuvimos dos horas y media para conocer por nuestra cuenta San Miguel... y volvimos a Ciudad de México a las 9:30 pm... en mi opinión considero que el precio es mucho para el tour, MEJOR VAYAN POR SU CUENTA POR METRO, saldrá mucho más cómodo

Very good. At first I was shocked that all people on the bus were local. Even the guide who could barley speak a little bit of English. Then I found out the tour i booked combined with another local travel company that's why all the people were Mexican. Overall it was pleasant and I enjoyed it.

Aunque por motivos de la gran afluencia de visitantes por esta época de Día de muertos, el viaje es una belleza. Comenzamos tarde, pero cada minuto después valió la pena. Única en el mundo, la demostración de la gente hacia el amor que tienen por sus difuntos es impactante. Un viaje que merece la pena. Primero las termas, donde te relajas y cobras energía para recorrer y ver por todos lados ese ambiente único en el mundo. Maravilloso. Regresaría sin duda pero me quedaría un día más. Translate this opinion into English.

Although due to the large influx of visitors during this time of the Day of the Dead, the trip is a beauty. We started late, but every minute after was worth it. Unique in the world, the demonstration of the people towards the love they have for their deceased is impressive. A trip that is worth it. First the hot springs, where you relax and recharge your energy to walk around and see that unique environment everywhere in the world. Wonderful. I would definitely go back but I would stay one more day. Opinion translated. Show original.

Viaje muy largo. (4:15 horas para ir y 5:15 para regresar) En este tipo de desplazamiento tan largo creo que seria importante remarcar que los buses llevaran servicio WC (baños) El lugar es bonito e interesante de ver, pero a la vez muy turístico. Lo ideal seria pernotar en el lugar Tanto la guía Giovanna como Felipe el conductor, se mostraron muy atentos

Very long journey. (4:15 hours to go and 5:15 to return) In this type of long journey I think it would be important to note that the buses have WC service (bathrooms) The place is beautiful and interesting to see, but at the same time very touristy . The ideal would be to note the place Both the guide Giovanna and Felipe the driver, were very attentive

Debido al tráfico en la mañana llegamos 10 minutos tarde a lo que amablemente los encargados del tour nos esperado. (Éramos 6 personas los que íbamos tarde) El guía fue muy amable, nos explicó todo a detalle. Creo que podrían sugerir restaurantes para comer en San Miguel. No tengo queja del tour, lamentablemente al regreso a CDMX hubo un accidente lo cual hizo que nos tardáramos casi 2 horas más en carretera pero bueno, es algo que está fuera del alcance de los organizadores del tour.

Contraté esta excursión para solucionar el tema de transporte, ya que Allende queda lejos de Ciudad de México. En cuanto a ese aspecto, cumplió perfectamente. En contrapartida, el guía no aporta mucha información acerca de los lugares que se recorren

El tour de día es suficiente para conocer los lugares principales de esta hermosa ciudad. Transporte OK, el guía con poca paciencia, necesita tener un distintivo para poderlo seguir. Es recomendable realizar un plan de lugares que visitar por propia cuenta.

Gabriel was an excellent tour guide who kept things both informative and added in a little humor to help keep things light and positive. Now..thank you for the excellent ride to and from San Miguel de Allende. The only word of advice for improvement would be at pick-up to start by telling people loudly which bus is for which trip to avoid any confusion :)

Per trip description, we will be going to La Gruta, after that, the center of San Miguel de Allende, the Church of St. Michael the Archangel, Casa del Mayorazgo de la canal, Temple of San Francisco and Handicraft market BUT we only visited La Gruta and then the bus took us to San Miguel de Allende. One lady made us walk close to the church and leave us there, giving us some time to visit the area by ourselves with NO English-speaking guide. None of the ladies speak English. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

El operador confirmó la noche antes y hasta ahí todo bien, llegué al punto de encuentro y nunca pasaron por mí, no contestaban el número de contacto y luego de esperar por más de dos horas informan que olvidaron pasar por el punto de encuentro que ellos mismos confirmaron, finalmente perdí la actividad y la unica solución fué el reembolso, realmente frustrantrante

The operator confirmed the night before and everything was fine. I arrived at the meeting point and they never came to pick me up. They didn't answer the contact number and after waiting for more than two hours they informed me that they forgot to come to the meeting point that they themselves had confirmed. In the end, I lost the activity and the only solution was a refund. Truly frustrating.

Recientemente, me cambiaron el día para el tour de aguas termales, lo que no me molestó tanto. Sin embargo, hubo otros aspectos que no fueron de mi agrado. En primer lugar, el transporte proporcionado no estaba en las mejores condiciones; la buseta en la que viajamos no me pareció adecuada. El viaje, aunque rápido, solo era vistas panorámicas. En cuanto al guía, realizó una explicación detallada durante el recorrido, que hizo que la experiencia fuera menos enriquecedora.

Recently, the day of my hot springs tour was changed, which didn't bother me as much. However, there were other aspects I didn't like. First, the transportation provided wasn't in the best condition; the minibus we traveled in didn't seem adequate. The trip, although quick, offered only panoramic views. As for the guide, he gave a detailed explanation during the tour, which made the experience less enriching.

La guía no nos explicó nada de san Miguel de Allende, solo nos dio algunas recomendaciones y nos dejó 4 horas libres. Tampoco nos avisó de horarios, llegamos al mercado de artesanía por recomendación de ella justo antes de volver al autobús y la mayoría de puestos estaban cerrados. Por otra parte el balneario no nos gustó porque estaba lleno de gente y parecía simplemente una piscina caliente. Puede ser que fuera porque era domingo.

The guide didn't explain anything about San Miguel de Allende to us, she just gave us some recommendations and left us 4 hours free. She didn't tell us the schedule either, we arrived at the craft market on her recommendation just before returning to the bus and most of the stalls were closed. On the other hand, we didn't like the spa because it was full of people and it looked like a hot pool. Maybe it was because it was Sunday.

Los destinos de San Miguel de Allende y Aguas termales estuvieron estupendos, San Miguel es hermoso, y hay muchas cosas que ver, y muchas opciones de comida y bebidas. Por otra parte, el guía, el chofer y el bus estuvieron muy mal. El Guía no explicó nada, el bus estuvo dañado, dando fallos desde el inicio y era super viejo e incómodo para un viaje tan largo. El chofer manejaba pésimo, un viaje de 4 horas, nos tomó más de cinco. Me sentí insegura durante todo el viaje. Horrible

The destinations of San Miguel de Allende and Hot Springs were great, San Miguel is beautiful, and there are many things to see, and many options for food and drinks. On the other hand, the guide, the driver and the bus were very bad. The guide did not explain anything, the bus was damaged, failing from the beginning and was super old and uncomfortable for such a long trip. The driver drove terribly, a 4 hour trip took us more than five. I felt unsafe during the whole trip. Horrible.

Los lugares visitados hermosos; sin embargo tanto el guía turístico designado como el chofer dejaron mucho que desear. Impuntualidad, informalidad, vehículo con fallas de transmisión e inadecuado para un trayecto tan largo. El guía no habló nada durante los recorridos, ni siquiera conocía el destino de Las Grutas. No sabían como regresar al hotel, tuvimos que ayudarlos. Recomiendo excluirlos de sus proveedores; muy bonitos destinos pero pésimo servicio de estos señores en calidad de guías.

The places we visited were beautiful, however, both the designated tour guide and the driver left a lot to be desired. Lateness, informality, vehicle with transmission problems and unsuitable for such a long journey. The guide did not say anything during the tours, he did not even know the destination of Las Grutas. They did not know how to get back to the hotel, we had to help them. I recommend excluding them from their suppliers; very nice destinations but terrible service from these gentlemen as guides.
