Getting to San Miguel
Getting to San Miguel requires some travel, but it’s not as challenging as some may believe. There are two area airports that you can fly into and either hire a driver, or arrange for shuttle transportation. If you are looking for a larger airport, Mexico City is the next closest option. The scenic drive from Mexico City to San Miguel De Allende is approximately three to four hours. There are private airports, shuttles, hired drivers, and public bus transportation. Although logistically it is a bit challenging, the benefit to this slightly remote area is the exclusivity and privacy. Once you are in the city, it is very walkable. If you are heading out to Luna Escondida, I suggest hiring a shuttle company or private driver.
One of the unexpected advantages of hosting your wedding so close to Mexico City is the access it provides to some of the most creative and talented wedding vendors and production houses in the world—rivaling even those found in New York City. From avant-garde florists and world-class caterers to bespoke event designers and top-tier entertainment, Mexico City is a hub of creative talent that can elevate your wedding at Rancho Luna Escondido.
If you are planning a destination wedding to San Miguel De Allende, I would love to chat. It’s a beautiful city, with so many possibilities. Luna Escondida being one of them.
