Itinerary

  • Templo La Valenciana

    Baroque temple built at the end of the 18th century by the Society of Jesus, known for its ornate façade and its interior decorated with golden altarpieces and mural paintings, it is also famous for its connection with the mining wealth of Guanajuato and is considered one of the most highlights of Mexican baroque architecture.

    30 minutes

  • Museo de Sitio Mina Valenciana

    Discovered at the end of the 18th century, it became one of the richest mines in Mexico, producing large quantities of silver and gold during colonial times. Today, the mine has become a popular tourist attraction. Visitors can take a tour of the mine to learn about its history and explore its underground galleries. You can also see tools and machinery used in mining, as well as exhibits on the daily lives of miners.

    30 minutes

  • Museo Regional de Guanajuato Alhondiga de Granaditas (Pass By)

    The Museum in le AlhĂłndiga was built in the 18th century and originally functioned as a granary to store grain and other agricultural products. During the Mexican War of Independence, the AlhĂłndiga was used as a fortress by royalist forces. The building houses a museum that tells the story of the Toma de la AlhĂłndiga and the Mexican War of Independence, as well as temporary art and culture exhibitions. It is also used as a space for cultural and social events in the city [We do not stop at the AlohĂłndiga, we only pass outside].

  • Museo de las Momias de Guanajuato

    The museum currently displays more than 100 mummies of all ages dating from the 19th and 20th centuries. Most of them have surprisingly well-preserved facial expressions, making them appear as if they were alive. The mummy collection was formed due to a local law that required the payment of taxes to keep the remains in the cemetery. If the relatives did not pay the taxes, the remains were exhumed and stored in a vault in the cemetery. In the 1860s, the mummified remains were found to be in a good state of preservation due to the dry and cold conditions inside the vault. From that moment on, the mummies began to be exhibited to the public in a building near the cemetery.

    1 hour

  • Monumento Al Pipila

    The monument's bronze statue depicts El Pipila carrying a torch and a flaming stone, which he is believed to have used to set fire to the gate of the AlhĂłndiga de Granaditas during the Mexican War of Independence in 1810. The monument also has a viewpoint that offers impressive panoramic views of the city of Guanajuato and its surroundings.

    30 minutes

  • Hacienda Del Cochero "Galerias de la Inquisicio"

    Museum known for being a sample of the dark side of the history of Guanajuato and can be disturbing for some people, since it shows instruments used for torture and execution of people accused of heresy or who opposed the Catholic religion at the time of the Inquisition.

    30 minutes

  • Guanajuato

    At the end of the first part of the tour (approximately 2:30 p.m.) free time will be given and the tourist will be left in the center of Guanajuato. You will be given instructions to meet again and go to Cristo Rey de la Paz.

    2 hours

  • Cerro Del Cubilete

    Cerro del Cubilete is an emblematic mountain located in Guanajuato, Mexico. It is known for its monumental statue of Christ the King, which is located on top of the hill and is one of the largest in the world. Construction of the Cristo Rey statue began in 1944 and was completed in 1947. It was erected as a monument to peace and to commemorate the end of the Cristero War in Mexico. Cerro del Cubilete is also a place of great religious importance for Mexican Catholics, who consider it a sacred and pilgrimage site. In addition, it offers an impressive view of the city of Guanajuato and its surroundings. Today, Cerro del Cubilete and its statue of Cristo Rey are a major tourist attraction in Guanajuato, and it is a place worth visiting to learn more about the history and culture of Mexico.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Santuario de Cristo Rey

    The sanctuary was built in the 1950s and is an example of the modern architectural style of the time. The church has a cross-shaped structure, and its roof is a white dome that resembles Jesus' crown of thorns. Inside, there is a series of stained glass windows depicting the life of Christ. The Sanctuary of Christ the King is an important pilgrimage site for Mexican Catholics, who climb Cerro del Cubilete to venerate the statue of Christ the King and visit the church at the base of the hill. Furthermore, it is a popular tourist spot due to its unique architecture and its location in an impressive natural landscape.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Guanajuato

    At the end of the second part of the tour in Cristo Rey (approximately 7:30 p.m.) the tourist will be returned to downtown Guanajuato to have free time until the Callejoneada with the Estudiantina begins (9:30 p.m.)

    2 hours 30 minutes

  • N/A

    Las Callejoneadas are nocturnal tours through the narrow streets of the historic center of Guanajuato, in which a group of musicians and singers, known as "estudiantina", accompany the participants while they visit the most emblematic places of the city.
