7:30 AM – Departure from CDMX
We gather as a group and set off in our private transport — the first hour is always the best for getting to know each other. Coffee, music, good energy.

11:00 AM – Brunch + Ranch Experience at Rancho Santa Marina
Nestled in the hills of El Marqués, Querétaro, Rancho Santa Marina is a certified organic farm producing natural wines, artisan cheeses and dairy. We start with a brunch buffet on the terrace — surrounded by green pastures and old mesquite trees. Then comes the guided ranch tour: you'll visit the vineyard, the artisan cheese factory, and the underground cava de maduración, where the cheeses age slowly. The experience finishes with a guided tasting of their signature cheeses paired with a glass of regional wine. This is farm-to-table before it was a trend.

1:15 PM – Drive to Querétaro City & Check-in at Hotel Yaga
We head into the city and settle into Hotel Yaga, right in the heart of the historic center. Time to freshen up, change, and get ready for an afternoon that's about something a little different.

3:30 PM – Art Workshop — Paint Your Own Lamp
This is the most purely girly part of the whole trip — and we love it. Settled in at the hotel, everyone gets a lamp to paint and decorate however they want. Cookies and snacks are served. Music is playing. There's no pressure to be good at art — the point is to be creative, laugh, and make something with your hands that goes home with you. A completely unexpected, completely memorable afternoon.

7:00 PM – Dinner & Free Time in Querétaro
The evening is yours. Querétaro's historic center comes alive at night — rooftop bars with views over the illuminated aqueduct, wine bars tucked into colonial mansions, or a quiet dinner in a candlelit courtyard. We'll send you with our favorite recommendations, but the night is entirely in your hands.

8:30 AM – Breakfast at a Charming Café in the Historic Center
We start the day slowly — a cozy café breakfast right in the centro histórico. Café de olla, fresh pan dulce, good conversation. The best way to wake up in a city like this.

10:00 AM – City Tour in a Vintage Ford T
One of the most fun ways to see Querétaro. You board a replica of a 1908 Ford T electric car at Las Diligencias in the historic center, with a guide who genuinely loves this city. For one hour you cruise through cobblestone streets, past baroque temples and colonial mansions, past the aqueduct with its 75 arches stretching 1.3 kilometers, through the old indigenous alleys of the Otomí quarter, past the Casa de la Corregidora where Mexico's independence was sparked, and to Cerro de las Campanas where an empire ended. Every stop has a story. Guides are consistently praised for their knowledge, humor and passion — and it's all in a charmingly ridiculous vintage vehicle that makes for perfect photos.

11:10 PM – Free Time — Querétaro in Daylight
After the tour you have time to explore on foot at your own pace. The Andador Libertad for shopping and people-watching, the Templo de Santa Clara with its extraordinary baroque interior, artisan markets, or simply sitting in the Plaza de Armas with a coffee and watching the world pass by.

1:30 PM – Decorated Picnic at the Lago
Lake park is one of the prettiest outdoor spots in the entire Querétaro metropolitan area. We set up a decorated picnic especially for our group: blankets, flower arrangements, snacks, the works. Just a gorgeous outdoor pause by the water, styled for you, before the grand finale of the afternoon. This is the moment for photos, for laughing, for doing nothing in particular — and feeling completely good about it.

3:00 PM – Puerta del Lobo — Wine Tasting
The perfect ending. Puerta del Lobo is not just a winery — it was named Bodega del Año 2025 in Mexico and has won over 60 national and international medals, including two gold medals at the prestigious Bacchus competition in 2026. Their vines produce Syrah, Tempranillo, Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc and more. The property itself is stunning: the Restaurante Ruinas with its author cuisine, El Mirador wine and cocktail bar at the top of the vineyard with panoramic views, and an atmosphere that feels genuinely special. We'll taste their wines, walk the property, and close the trip the way it deserves — with a glass in hand and a view worth remembering.

9:00 PM – Return to Mexico City
We drive back full, a little happy from the wine, phones loaded with photos, and probably a bottle or two tucked into the bag for later.
