We are so excited to celebrate with you in San Miguel de Allende! Getting there is very manageable with a bit of planning—here are the best ways to make your trip as smooth as possible.

Option 1 (Best): Fly Direct or One US Stop to Querétaro or León

The easiest way to reach San Miguel is to fly directly (or with a US connection) into one of the two nearby airports:

- Querétaro (QRO) - ~60-75 minutes by car to SMA

- León / Bajío (BJX) – ~90-100 minutes by car to SMA

Transportation options:

- Taxi/Uber (readily available)

- Private car service (recommended for comfort and ease)

If you can find a direct or 1-stop flight into either airport, this is by far the simplest and most seamless option.

Important Notes:

Flights to QRO and BJX from the US are limited. We recommend booking as early as possible to guarantee availability.

We recommend connecting through the U.S., not within Mexico. While some itineraries may route you through Mexico City before continuing to Querétaro, this requires:

- Clearing immigration and customs in Mexico City

- Collecting and re-checking your bags

- Going back through security

In most cases, this adds time and complexity without any real benefit. If you are connecting, aim for a U.S. connection into QRO or BJX.

Option 2: Fly to Mexico City (CDMX) + Private Transfer

If flights into QRO or BJX are limited or expensive, a great backup option is to fly directly into Mexico City (CDMX / MEX).

Getting to San Miguel

~3-4 hours by car

- Private drivers (most popular and comfortable)

- Shared shuttle or van services

This option works especially well if:

- You’re coming from a major U.S. city with nonstop service to Mexico City

- You prefer more flight flexibility or better pricing

We recommend arranging a private transfer or shared van rather than booking a connecting flight within Mexico.
