Guanajuato's famous underground road network wasn't built for mining or for traffic — it started as flood control. The city sits in a narrow ravine that the Río Guanajuato once ran straight through, and for centuries that made it dangerously prone to flash floods during the rainy season, with floods causing real damage and loss of life over the years. Beginning mainly in the 19th century, engineers dug a series of wide channels through the bedrock beneath the city center to divert the river's flow away from the streets above — the same riverbed tunnels that visitors pass through today.
Once later water-management infrastructure reduced the flood risk, those dry diversion channels were paved over, lit, and converted into an underground road network — the first vehicle is recorded as having driven through in 1961. The result is a genuinely unusual piece of 19th-century urban engineering still doing its job today: much of Guanajuato's through-traffic now moves beneath the historic center, which is part of why the pedestrian streets and plazas above feel so unusually quiet and walkable for a Mexican city of this size.
The second half of this full-day tour heads several kilometers outside downtown to the mines and haciendas that built the city in the first place — territory the shorter, city-based mine tours don't reach. That typically means the La Valenciana mining district, roughly 5-6 km north of the center, where the still-standing Templo de San Cayetano was financed directly by the mine's silver profits and completed in 1788. Because entrance fees to the mines and museums along the way aren't included in the tour price, you can choose which sites are worth paying to go inside, with your guide and private vehicle free for the whole day.
