Mexico City & San Miguel de Allende – 2023

by Monte R.

I flew into Queratario Airport, Mexico, on solo trip to San Miguel de Allende.  I’m there for a few days then down to Mexico City.  I flew United Airlines from Austin > IAH > QRO.  

This is my first solo trip abroad in many years, before COVID hit and altered the world order.  I think my last solo trip was in 2019 when I went to Israel and Jordan.

San Miguel de Allande has got charm and a laid back lifestyle, great art scene and good eats.  I loved my hotel, Casa Mia Suites.  I met many Americans and made some friends.

My second half of the trip into Mexico City trip went great, too  Better than I expected. I took a bus from SMDA to Mexico City.  I stayed on the Hyatt Regency in the Polanco area, which is like Beverly Hills, perhaps even nicer.  The city reminded my of Los Angeles in many ways.  I loved it – the museums are great.  Dining is spectacular.  There’s so much to do – and it’s all like half as much than what everything costs in America.

The highlights of Mexico City were Museum of Anthropology and the Teotihuacan pyramid. I got tired after the pyramid tour after a week of daily adventures and took a rest.  

Flew back home in business class on Aeromexico – cashed in some points, another free reward ticket. Love them points!
