FAQs
Question
Do I need to exchange money?
Answer
The exchange rate is ±18 pesos/$1.00 USD. If you divide the pesos amount by 18 you’ll arrive at what it should be in US dollars. There are ATM machines and exchange bureaus in and around the main-square (El Jardin). Many hotels and restaurants take credit cards and US dollars, but many smaller shops may not be set up to. It is best to carry pesos! We would recommend going to your bank a week or two before your trip to Mexico and getting about $300 USD worth of Pesos.
Question
How to get around the city?
Answer
We do not recommend renting a car. The best way to get around San Miguel, is on foot. Some of the most exciting discoveries can be found along its winding walkways. Just be sure to pack comfortable sneakers; cobbled, narrow streets can be tough on feet. There are also cabs are everywhere and very cheap! If you take a cab while in the city, make sure you use a green or white one (these are official). Also make sure to agree on a rate to your destination before accepting the ride. Don't forget though! You will need to book a car to take you from the airport to San Miguel and back. That's the only important ride to be aware of during your time here.
