A Culinary and Cultural Adventure in San Miguel de Allende MEXICO!
As most of us know, Mexico's culture is rich, colorful, and vibrant, and the cuisine is highly diverse. I would like to extend a personal invitation to join me in San Miguel de Allende where we will create traditional chicken mole, enchiladas, tacos, chile rellenos, burritos, tortillas and much more. We will attend the Food in Film Festival and sample food from respected chefs alongside films that inspired them. The culture, traditions and people are colorful and joyous, and it will be an experience unlike anything you have ever known. Along with the culinary focus, we will also explore the incredible sightseeing that makes San Miguel one of the best kept secrets in Mexico. Don’t miss this delicious opportunity to create Mexican food in an authentic and passionate way. I am only taking ten people, and I hope you are one of them!

TESTIMONIALS FROM PAST MEXICO TOURS:

Manuela Silbach, Underdale, South Australia- "Loved Mexico - the colours, the food, the places and the fun time with the group"
Suzanne Doonan,Malvern, Pennsylvania- "What a wonderful trip. Pam Holland was an extraordinary guide for our first trip to Mexico. Craftours created a community of travelers, hosted so many entertaining and enlightening experiences for us in this beautiful country."

Martha Zydowsky, Madison, WI - "Great tour! It was a nice blend of different activities and I loved Mexico. One of the best tours I've done!"

Cheryl Barnard, Port Elgin, Ontario - "A true adventure!"
Joyce Pearsall, Brevard, NC - "This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip for me. As a volunteer with Monarch Watch as a Conservation Specialist, it was important for me to actually see the overwintering sites in Mexico. I have seen them in California about two years ago, so these are precious memories! Even with the importance of the monarchs to me, what was even more unique was having Estela Romero as a guide and taking us to Macheros to see the children and meet families up close and personal. It was very much worth my money and time to experience that adventure! I learned much and am grateful!"
Deanna Ott, Aurora, CO - "The Monarch Mecca trip was amazing. Seeing the Monarchs was more than I imagined, it was magic. I also enjoyed the botanical gardens in Toluca and touring around Mexico City."
Jen Neve, Austin, TX - "Kylee was a delight. She was very informative and shared enough of her experiences to keep things interesting. She also organized a nice surprise visit from a young lady who had bicycled the monarch migration route. Sherrill was wonderful. Organised and very clear about expectations and timeliness. The Rancho San Cayetano B&B was so pretty. The rooms were comfortable. Hotel Avandaro was incredible-so nice. El Rosario sanctuary was incredible."
Nancy Anne Braymer, Washington, DC - “I misunderstood how CrafTours worked and did not understand the participatory nature of the workshops as I appreciate crafts but have zero talent. That said, I loved the tour. I was honored to be in the presence of Pam Holland who is amazing.”
Joan Lumpkin, Kettering, OH - “It was a very enjoyable trip. The butterflies were very active and an experience to see.”
Diane McCarthy, Bellvue, CO - “As a scientist and a lover of nature, I have wanted to do this tour for years. It definitely did not disappoint!”
