Description

Journey into the heart of the Guerrero mountains to discover the silver-scaled beauty of Taxco de Alarcón, one of Mexico’s most picturesque treasures. We will walk together through a vertical labyrinth of winding cobblestone alleys and whitewashed houses adorned with overflowing bougainvillea, offering as a colonial landscape. We will pause to admire the breathtaking facade of the Santa Prisca Church, a masterpiece of New Spanish Baroque architecture whose pink stone towers dominate the skyline, and venture inside to see the intricate gold-leaf altarpieces that tell the story of the city’s immense colonial wealth. Along the way, we dive into the fascinating history of the local mines and the 20th-century artistic revolution sparked by William Spratling, which transformed this quiet mountain town into the silver capital of the world. From the lively atmosphere of the Plaza Borda to the hidden legends nestled in the shadows of its narrow “callejones,” this tour provides an intimate connection to Taxco’s unique blend of mining heritage and artistic elegance.
