Trip Highlights
Boutique trip from Mexico City for wine lovers, creatives, and conscious explorers.
Cheese tasting at an artisanal ranch
Step into the rolling hills of Querétaro and discover the secrets of traditional cheesemaking at Rancho Santa Marina. Walk among sheep and goats, learn how the region’s best cheeses are made, and indulge in a curated tasting with handmade bread, jams, and panoramic countryside views. This is slow living at its finest.
Two wine tastings at top vineyards
Sip your way through Dos Búhos and Tres Raíces, two of Guanajuato’s most acclaimed wineries. From organic methods to award-winning blends, you’ll enjoy tastings in stunning vineyard settings — barrel rooms, sculpture gardens, and panoramic terraces included.
Gallery visit & walking tour in San Miguel
Wander through cobblestone alleys and pastel-colored facades and listen to the hidden stories of San Miguel de Allende. We will also visit a contemporary art gallery showcasing bold Mexican creativity — a perfect mix of culture, inspiration, and design. Bring your camera (and your curiosity).
Build Meaningful Connections
Travel isn’t just about places — it’s about people. With just 10–12 curious souls, you’ll share stories over wine, laughter over meals, and experiences that turn strangers into friends. This journey is designed to connect — with yourself, with others, and with the heart of Mexico.
