Join us on an unforgettable 8-day journey through the heart of Mexico's San Luis Potosí, perfectly timed to enjoy the vibrant Day of the Dead (Xantolo) festivities.

Immerse yourself in local customs, explore breathtaking natural wonders, and discover the quiet magic that makes this region truly unique. We will be there with you every step of the way. Let us take the stress of the details off your shoulders. Learn more below & contact us with any questions.

San Luis Potosí remains relatively undiscovered by most travelers from the US which presents unique challenges for solo adventurers. With limited transportation options to certain areas and few English speakers, navigating this state can be a bit daunting for non-natives. However, this untouched quality also preserves its authentic charm, offering a rare opportunity to immerse oneself in a genuine cultural experience. We encourage our guests to approach their visit with open minds and hearts, embracing the differences and reveling in the safe and captivating environment that awaits. You will have a guide with you at every step to assist with translation and the navigation from hotels to activities and everything in between. While San Luis Potosí is considered a safe destination for travelers, everyone should use caution and common sense, as when traveling anywhere that you’re not familiar. Travel lightly, both in spirit and footprint, as we strive to preserve the integrity of this remarkable destination.

Given the scarcity of tours in this captivating region, none quite match the unique experience we aim to offer. It’s this void that inspired us to choose this location as a perfect starting point for our Tour Operation. We will be providing a service that we have personally been unable to find elsewhere and we are excited to share this region with folks that don’t speak Spanish but want to discover something new.
