Private Tour to Mineral de Pozos

On this private tour of the Mineral de Pozos, we'll learn about the history of the gold and silver farms that made this Magic Town famous, including the ruins of colonial estates and old smelting ovens.

Description

At the scheduled time, we’ll collect you from your hotel in Guanajuato and travel by minibus to Mineral de Pozos. After 2 hours of travel, we will arrive and visit the Santa Brígida mine, which features 18th-century silver-smelting ovens built by the Jesuit order.

Next, we will explore the Cinco Señores mines, viewing old tunnels and the ruins of a colonial estate located beside a gold and silver farm. Many of these structures still exist in the town.

We will then observe the former El Triángulo estate, known for being the property of President Porfirio Díaz and for its cactus garden.

Near the historical center, we’ll find the old school of Mineral de Pozo, previously one of the best schools in the state, now housing an exhibition about the town's history and a contemporary Mexican art collection.

You will have free time to eat, and after 9 hours together, the tour will conclude back at your hotel in Guanajuato.
