Museo de las Momias de Guanajuato
The Museum of the Mummies is a popular tourist attraction located in the city of Guanajuato, Mexico. The museum houses a collection of mummified human bodies that were naturally preserved due to the unique climatic and soil conditions in the region. The mummies were originally buried in the local cemetery during the 19th and early 20th centuries, but were exhumed in the mid-20th century due to a local tax on burial plots. The museum has over 100 mummies on display, including men, women, and children, some of which are in various states of decay. The mummies are arranged in different poses and positions, with some standing upright while others lie down. Visitors can see the mummies up close and even observe details such as their clothing and facial expressions. The museum offers guided tours and audio guides in both English and Spanish, providing historical and cultural context about the mummies and the traditions surrounding death and burial in Mexico.
The Mina de San Cayetano Valenciana, also known simply as Valenciana, is a historic silver mine located near the city of Guanajuato in central Mexico. The mine was first discovered in the late 16th century, and it became one of the most important silver mines in Mexico during the colonial period. The mine is known for its rich history and its impressive engineering, with underground tunnels extending for over 20 kilometers. The mine produced an enormous amount of silver, estimated to be worth billions of dollars by today's standards. The wealth generated by the mine was used to build many of the beautiful colonial-era buildings and churches in Guanajuato. Today, the Mina de San Cayetano Valenciana is open to visitors for tours. Visitors can descend into the mine and see the underground workings, including the original tunnels and shafts. The tour also includes a visit to the mine's museum, which houses a collection of artifacts and tools used by the miners.

3.00I found the information given regarding the mines and history interesting was well as the mummy. museum. I did not like being directed towards vendors. I just wanted to learn more about the history of the area. I wished we went to more than one mine site. The two gentlemen were pleasant. The guide was informative.
Great tour

5.00Our guide, Rames, was great. Stayed with us to provide context at all the stops. Certainly got to see some sites not easy to access from downtown.
Not What we were Expecting

3.00We were disappointed not to get to any other museums than the mummies. The only other museum we were offered was the Museum of Torture which we declined. Our driver was lovely and polite and a good driver but he did little guiding and his English was only fair. It was not what we expected.
