Santa Maria del Rio Tour

At 10 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel and start our trip to Santa Maria del Rio, one of the four magical villages in the state of San Luis Potosi. After an hour's drive, we'll arrive in Santa Maria del Rio, known as the origin of the rebozo, a type of shawl. Our first stop will be at a workshop where this traditional garment is crafted, where you'll learn about ancient techniques passed down through generations.

Next, we'll visit the Casa del Rebozo, the only place in the world devoted to the preservation of this traditional clothing item. Through its interactive exhibit, we'll learn about the origin of the rebozo, how it's made, the types of stitches used, the spools of thread, and historical artifacts.

Our next destination will be the Church of the Assumption, a prominent example of colonial religious architecture in Santa Maria del Rio, originally part of a 17th-century Franciscan convent, surrounded by handicraft stores and traditional bakeries.

Lastly, we'll end this tour by dropping you off at your hotel at 2.30 pm.
