For the second year in a row, Travel + Leisure readers chose Mexico’s San Miguel de Allende as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. San Miguel de Allende, a colonial-era city in Mexico’s central highlands, founded in 1500, is known for its thriving arts scene and frequent cultural festivals. In the city’s historic, cobblestoned center lies the neo-Gothic church Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel, whose dramatic pink towers rise above the main plaza. Come with us as we explore this fascinating city.
We will leave home Friday morning, arriving in San Miguel that afternoon. A private transfer will whisk us to our beautiful boutique hotel directly on the square in the city center. We’ll be able to see La Parroquia from the hotel.
The weekend will be filled with culinary experiences, vineyard tour, art crawls, cultural tours and so much more. Then on Tuesday morning we’ll return home or travel on to Mexico City as an added adventure.

Hola, Allen Hime here, looking forward to sharing San Miguel Allende with you.
I have spent a lifetime traveling throughout Mexico, and San Miguel Allende is by far the most beautiful city I have explored. If you love art, culture, and history, SMA has it all. This city of 120K is very safe, clean, and friendly. For the exception of a Starbucks, you will only find boutique mom and pop business throughout the city. We will have a very busy five days, so pack your camera and come with me on a dynamic adventure.
Is Mexico Safe for Americans to Visit?
Perhaps our most frequently heard question is “Is it Safe?”. There are a ton of reasons to ask the question, and even more reasons for us to answer “Absolutely!”. Here are some of them.
There will always be areas in every country where we wouldn’t advise travel. And from our experience, there are more of those spots in the US than in any other country. New York, St Louis, Houston, Atlanta, Seattle, or Miami all have areas you shouldn’t visit. Even in countries we see as high-risk such as Iraq, Jordan, China, or India, people go about the job of living just as you and I do. All of the above countries are safe if you use common sense and travel in groups.
