If you like mezcal, you must tour with Miguel! - We reached out to Miguel a few months before our trip. His communication and planning was excellent. He arranged 4 days of mezcal tours for our group of four friends. Miguel picked us up every morning and arrived exactly on time. Each visit was unique and thematically they told the unique story and history of mezcal in SLP. His English is excellent as well if that is a need you have.

Exceptional tour - Miguel did a wonderful job introducing me to the history and science of mescal. His knowledge is deep and wide and his English is excellent. This is a tour that foodies and anyone interested in the culture and history of central Mexico would appreciate. The tasting was an exceptional experience activating all the senses, and Miguel put me at ease as I tried something new. It was nice to meet the local hosts and have a glimpse into their country lifestyle. David shared some refreshing pulque and sweet agave nectar. I highly recommend this tour. What a great way to see some of the rural area around San Luis Potosi. I have great respect for agave plant now!
