We went out to Sierra Gorda with our guide Juan Emanuel from Bike Queretaro tours. The drive out is not necessarily beautiful but unique. We stopped at Puerta del cielo for a picture, then went to chuveje falls. The falls were beautiful and a short easy hike. The water is crystal clear but freezing. The food stand right outside was delicious. We then went to Rio escanela and the puente de dios. This was incredible. The hike was a little longer, but not difficult. You cross multiple wooden bridges, with many great spots for beautiful pictures and scenery. The puente itself was amazing, again with really cold water, but I was able to hike past this and there were great views past it as well..

San Juanito is a lovely option to spend a day. Whether you only wish to eat lunch and have a glass of wine taking in the spectacular view of the vines and the Peña de Bernal or you wish to spend a whole weekend in their perfectly setup guesthouse, San Juanito has something for everyone to enjoy. One may go to this place with friends, family or significant other. They organise many events, including the traditional ones you would expect in a vineyard and/or winery like harvest festivals, and tours of the grounds accompanied by their expert enologist who explains the whole process of vine growing and wine making. San Juanito also offers carefully designed yet unpretentious but delicious dinners, luncheons, equestrian festivals and many more. Their proximity to the aerodrome and the quaint towns of Tequisquiapan and Bernal makes it the perfect setting for a hot air balloon ride and a romantic getaway or an adventure with family or friends. One could simply arrive any given weekend, order a delicious pizza, a glass of any of their multi awarded wines and sit in the shade of their terrace to enjoy the peace and quiet of this blessed place in the Mexican countryside. Wear a hat, bring a cozy coat for the sunset and be ready to enjoy a truly splendid time in San Juanito. The owners and staff will bend over backwards to make your visit a memorable one.

Reviewed By blondepenguin - Queretaro City, Mexico
This tour involves a ride out to the boonies then getting in back of a pick up to go up to the mines, the tour guides help kids (and adults if your nice lol) bust rocks and find opals, if you need to relieve some stress and break some things and maybe find a treasure this is fun. I wouldn’t take a kid under 8 tho because it’s quite a bumpy ride up the mountain.
