From Miami to Magical: Your Guide to San Miguel de Allende
So, you're tired of the Miami heat and dreaming of cobblestone streets, colorful buildings, and a slower pace of life? Good news! You're about to embark on a journey to the enchanting town of San Miguel de Allende. Let's dive in, shall we?
How To Get To San Miguel De Allende From Miami |
Flying High or Hitting the Road?
The Quick and Dirty
QuickTip: Note key words you want to remember.
If you're the impatient type and money isn't a major concern, flying is your best bet. Several airlines offer direct flights from Miami to Guanajuato International Airport (BJX), which is a short drive from San Miguel. It's like teleporting to paradise, minus the magic wand.
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.
But let's say you're feeling adventurous and have a week to spare. Road tripping is an option. You'll get to soak in the sights and sounds of Mexico, but be prepared for a long haul. And trust me, Mexican highways are a whole different ball game.
QuickTip: Pause when something clicks.
Getting There is Half the Fun
Once you've landed or rolled into town, you'll need to get to your accommodation. There are taxis, shuttles, and even private transfers available. If you're feeling extra fancy, you could hire a mariachi band to serenade you on your arrival. Just kidding (kind of).
Tip: Read mindfully — avoid distractions.
