Unique private tour in magic towns near Querétaro - This was an amazing experience; it definitely exceeded our expectations. Alejandro is very knowledgeable and kind. In addition, he is fluent in both English and Spanish. During this private tour, Alejandro took us to special places in each one of the magic towns that we visited, while providing thorough information on culture, history and nature. We highly recommend this tour with Alejandro.

Three Pueblos, One Guide, and a Whole Lot of Heart: A Day in Querétaro with Alejandro - If you’re the kind of traveler who wants your tour guide to simply point out landmarks, crack a few jokes, and get you back to your hotel by sunset, this one might not be for you. But if you’re after the kind of day where history breathes, stories matter, and every village square feels like it has a soul — then buckle up. Alejandro isn’t just a tour guide. He’s part historian, part philosopher, part cultural diplomat — and somehow, still the guy you want to share a beer with at the end of the day. Fully bilingual in English and Spanish, he picked us up from our hotel in Querétaro City in a clean, comfortable car, and what followed was less of a tour and more of a journey. First up: Amealco. A town that feels older than memory, where Otomí culture threads its way through the daily rhythm. Alejandro pulled the veil back on layers most tourists miss — from the politics of handcraft preservation to the quiet dignity of a doll-making tradition that speaks volumes without saying a word. Then Tequisquiapan — pastel-colored bliss and colonial charm with wine and cheese on the side. It’s easy to be seduced by the Instagrammable streets, but Alejandro made sure we didn’t just see the surface. He told the stories behind the stones, and why they still matter. And then there’s Bernal. The monolith looms, of course, but it’s not just a rock — not when Alejandro’s telling you the tales of pre-Columbian cosmology, Spanish conquest, and what it means to live in the shadow of something ancient. By the time we left, Peña de Bernal wasn’t just a mountain. It was a myth, a memory, a mirror. Throughout the day, Alejandro fielded every question we threw his way — about indigenous languages, colonial trauma, tacos vs. quesadillas — and answered them with patience, nuance, and the kind of depth that only comes from someone who’s lived the questions himself. There’s no script here. No cheesy jokes. Just one man, three pueblos, and a rich, complicated, beautiful country laid bare in the best possible way. Highly recommended? Yeah. But more than that — necessary.

Best Tour - This was the best tour when you come to Queretaro. It was well worth every penny. Alejandro is the best and very animated in his history telling and plans the day out to the T. He has alot of connections in every town you visit which adds alot of extras to the tour. Indeed three magical cute towns each full of character.

Fantastic! - Alex "the crazy" was the best tour guide we have had. The 3 locations were all very interesting, but Alex's extensive knowledge of history and several other disciplines, combined with a great sense of humor, made it a great day.

Amazing magical and beautiful towns! - Alejandro Villar was our tour guide; he is very friendly and an excellent historian, he knows all about these towns. We visited these three amazing magical towns; Amealco de Bonfil, Tequisquiapan, and Bernal. We learned a lot about the history of these beautiful places. Thank you Alejandro for your patience and knowledge! We had an amazing and unforgettable tour.

Loved it!!! - We loved this tour. Alex was a great guide and provided a great overview of the three magic towns, each with its own unique charm and history. Bernal was our favorite! Next time we travel to Queretero, we plan to stay in Bernal rather than the historic center. Well worth the visit to all three magic towns. We highly recommend this tour.

Incredible tour of 3 Pueblo Magicos - Alex is the most knowledgeable person i have met regarding the historical facts of Mexican history. He was able to describe the influences of religious and political leaders of the times. In addition he has the ability to share his deep understanding of the architectural elements of the towns and churches and gives insight to the hierarchical structure of the Catholic church of the time. It was an incredible day.

We visited 3 magic villages, the truth was an amazing experience. - Excellent tour by Mr. Alejandro Villar Aguilar, the knowledge he has of history is incredible, of course you prefer your tour to be simpler and without so much information Mr. Alejandro adapts to what you ask. I personally very much enjoy all the information received.

A glimpse into Central Mexico - We did a 6 day trip of Central Mexico and stayed at Queretaro and travelled to San Miguel and Bernal. Highlights of the 3 places. Queretaro - visit the historic centre and enjoy the vibe on a Friday night or weekend whe. The main square is buzzing. San Miguel De Allende - a little over an hours drive from Queretaro. Lots of history, great views, a lovely insight into the Spanish influence in Mexico. I recommend you take a guided tour with a man authorised tour guide which you will find just outside the cathedral in the main square. This is a must if you do not speak Spanish and would like to understand the history and culture of the area. Pena De Bernal - a beautiful place less then an hour from Queretaro which is highlighted by the worlds third largest monolith. Great views, great eating joints and don’t forget the Michelada’s. Also the cheapest place to buy all you gifts, souvenirs and other stuff.
