Now this is an excursion that you won’t find often… an mining for Opals.
This excursion is near the town of Tequisquiapan, in that state of Querétaro Mexico.
If you have your own car and you speak some Spanish, there is no need to hire a tour guide.
The “main guy” for the opal mine excursion is Héctor Montes. His excursion business is less than 30 minutes from the center of Tequisquiapan, Querétaro, in the small town of Trinidad.
The is location is: Calle Dos de Octubre 1 La Trinidad, 76774 Tequisquiapan, Qro., Mexico.
Thanks for the information! I travel with two dogs and a husband too (LOL)
Hola Meg! Thanks for the comment.
I hope you are able to take the opportunity to visit the Tequisquiapan area… with your two dogs and a husband!

We plan to go in two weeks. By the way, did you tour any of the wineries while you were there? We are planning on staying at a pet-friendly Airbnb that has a nice little yard. It is out of town near the wineries.
I remember going to one, however I do not remember the name because I thought it was just “so so”. Freixenet is a major winery in the area with their own shop in main plaza of Tequiquiapan. I was very impressed with the cheese shops! Have fun!
