Aguascalientes Haciendas Tour

At 10 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel to start our tour of the historic haciendas of Aguascalientes.

First, we will visit El Chichimeco, an 18th century hacienda associated with the Armillita family, known for bullfighting. The farmhouse will showcase bullfighting artefacts, including costumes and trophies.

Next, we will visit the Garabato Hacienda and the neoclassical Basilica of San Isidro. The hacienda was one of the first focused on breeding fighting bulls in Mexico, providing insights into the sport.

Subsequently, we'll explore San Blas, a 17th century agricultural hacienda housing the Insurgencia Museum. In its porticoed courtyard, we will learn about the deposition of Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla and the Battle of Calderón Bridge. This location is adjacent to the Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, a 2560-kilometre trade route from Mexico City to Santa Fe.
