Witches and Crosses Tour

Enjoy, up close and personal, what makes San Miguel de Allende the epicenter of both the cult of cross and witchcraft.

Learn about

  • The 1531 Battle of the Barbarians that formed what we celebrate in today’s San Miguel de Allende for the entire month of May, St. Michael’s day in September and fiestas year round
  • Why being the geographic center of the Americas places us on a gateway to the afterlife and some really odd weather
  • Why witches stopped flying over SMA with the arrival of golf
  • Where, why and how witches worship around town

Traveling just outside of town you’ll see the battlefield, the chapel marking where the cross appeared in the sky and some local hotspots for the dark arts to view the remains of yesterday’s offerings.

San Miguel de Allende is one of the world’s most church and witch laden cities.  Learn why at 10AM on Sunday, Feb. 12th.  The tour is 1200 pesos or 60 US dollars and lasts two hours with brief driving to the sites and flat walking.  The tour is lead by TripAdvisor’s top ranked historical walking tour guide the Amazon bestselling author of the SMA Secrets’ series of books.  Visit JosephToone.com, or contact Toone.Joseph@yahoo.com  to guide you to SMA’s Secrets!
