Activity Overview
We will pick you up at the designated hour in the morning from the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Monterrey. Following this, we will embark on our journey to the Pueblo Mágico ('Magic Town') of Arteaga.
Upon arrival, we will visit the intriguing irrigation canal that weaves its way through the town. Next, we'll stroll through Alameda Square on our way to the Church of San Isidro Labrador, an impressive basilica from the 18th century, notable for its grand four-tiered tower.
If your visit coincides with a Sunday, you’ll have the opportunity to explore a traditional market, brimming with local artisan crafts and regional goods. This two-hour interlude allows ample time to savor lunch and pick up some unique souvenirs.
