BEST THINGS TO DO GUANAJUATO CITY MEXICO (Our First Impressions)

We travel to Guanajuato City for the first time and give you our first impressions along with a list of the best things to do, see, and eat! We start out walking to town and discover the cities' tunnels and it's school, University of Guanajuato. We make it to our Spanish Class School, La Hacienda Espanol, and then we get some gorditas Las Gueras, next we take the funicular (trolley) up to the top of the city for the best view and to visit the Monumento Al Pipila statue. Next we go to the Basilica De Guanajuato and the Plaza Gardens to hangout. Up Next is the Callejon De Beso or alley of the kiss where we get 15 years of good luck. One of our favorite spots is the Mercado Hidalgo where we get groceries and find Charamuscas! Last but not least we head to Jardin De La Union or the main square for an alley walk (Callejoneadas) from the Traditional Mexican Singers.

We're Faris and Lisa
A travel couple from Metro Detroit, MI. We met in business school and started traveling immediately post graduation in 2016 while maintaining automotive marketing positions. We’ve traveled to over 35 different countries together and still can’t get enough!
In April 2021, we made the leap and quit our 9-5 jobs to follow our dreams of full time travel. We sold our house, donated all of our belongings and moved into Tina.

Wonderful Mexico! The country has the largest number of UNESCO world heritage sites and Intangible cultural heritage elements in the Americas. So much history and culture!

[@FarisandLisa]

We love Mexico and the people! We have learned so much and we continue to learn new things everyday! Thank you so much for the comment :)

[@fgarcia6915]

Being a huge foodie your guys video always make me hungry. Keep it up 👍.

[@FarisandLisa]

Thanks! We love it and making videos of eating always put a smile on our face. Food usually becomes some of the biggest memories and reasons for us wanting to revisit!

[@juliekisil8835]

Awww this video was so great, love the views of the city, your language and history lessons and a bit of romance too❤️Must have been so fun to follow those musicians around town. I want to go!

[@TXMEDRGR]

That was a great travel video set in a beautiful little city, great job. I hope you two have 15 x 15 years of good luck.

[@FarisandLisa]

☺️ we hope it last for the rest of our lives. Awesome city with so many great traditions and stories

[@BookItTravel]

Smashed it! Great intro, love the walking to class clips. Still pumped that we got to spend the week there with you all! 😁

[@FarisandLisa]

Haha thanks Guys! It was a great place and hard to beat with y’all ;)

[@TheBrownVanlife]

Omg guys such a freaking great video. So happy you enjoyed this city as much as us and damn those gorditas. Keep these amazing videos coming.

[@KevinMongrain-dw8wk]

Great video!! We are heading that way with our van and we wondering where did you guys stay ?!

[@victorm7691]

Just started following you. Great and useful content! Where did you park the van in Guanajuato?

[@FarisandLisa]

Hi Victor! Thanks for Following. IOverlander has all the good info. Morril RV park is where we stayed and it is walking distance to the main town. We never moved the van the whole week. It is a must visit! The owner is also very welcoming:)

[@wilocintron6046]

Excelente video. Los “cantores” also known as “La Tuna” as typically known in Hispanic countries and composed of college students for the most part. Enjoy our Hispanic culture. Saludos 🤙🏾

[@FarisandLisa]

Thanks Wilo! Yes the Cantadores! They are great and we learned so much. Such a magical city :)

[@scott6501]

How do you guys not have your own show on the Travel Channel or something?! The video production quality is amazing and you two are great! Keep up the good work!!

[@FarisandLisa]

Thanks Scott! Haha we wish. Would love too if anyone wants to endorse us :)

[@charlenewachlarz1901]

Let’s goooo

[@ShihanTomCallahan]

So fun!!! Did you feel safe driving your van all the way around mexico to get there?

[@FarisandLisa]

Yeah! It has been a great experience, but like anywhere do your due diligence, know where you are going and have a plan :)

[@ciscog9109]

“gUaNAJatOoOo” 😂😂😂

[@mikefanelli1]

😂😂😂

[@MikeAndTum]

How did you find a campground/parking for your van there? Is there an app or website? We have a 23ft Coachmen Beyond on the Ford Transit. Would we have problems driving around in that city? The streets look very small with steep inclines.

[@FarisandLisa]

Hi, iOverlander is the go to! There is a place called Morril RV Park. 170 sprinters made it up there. We also saw a few 4x4 rigs much larger than ours. I would say you will not have a problem making it there. It will be a little tight on the way up but that’s part of the fun. Long sprinter colectivos go up and down those roads all day. There is also a panaramic road that stays out of the main city and offers an easier route in. Totally worth trying as this has been one of our favorite experiences in Mexico.

[@gtr5racer]

Hey guys! You're doing it right! Having fun. I'm gonna share the check out of you, btw you'll find many of us are really finicky about pronunciation, but don't mind the comments too much pls.

[@FarisandLisa]

Aww thank you!! And yes we feel so bad about the pronunciation but we learned now! We traveled all over Mexico and Guanajuato was our absolute favorite!

[@eronik3620]

WOW!!! I think you just visited the most beautiful city in the world. i never seen anything like it and thats because I've been all over europe.

[@bpw3465]

wonderful town. nice video. but I thought your Spanish lessons would help you pronounce the name

[@alfonsomarquez232]

Here in tejas a gordita is 10dollars

[@charlenewachlarz1901]

Hi first

[@FarisandLisa]

My man with the quick hands!

[@touristiqueducanada346]

🐾👣🤙🍺

[@fidelmurillo6860]

The wya y’all pronounce Guanajuato irks the hell out of me. Lol

[@FarisandLisa]

we truly wish we could go back and pronounce it right. We went to Spanish classes in Guanajuato and no one corrected us. next time

[@arerodriguez8196]

Guanajuato was mispronounced every single time 😥

[@FarisandLisa]

We know!! We are so sorry 😭 wish we could go back and change it but I swear we’ve learned it now

[@danielreyes-fj4ji]

10 seconds in you already butchered the name guanajuato😂 has some respect😅

[@FarisandLisa]

We know, and we feel really bad!

[@samwi-fifi1120]
