Welcome to Mexico! I am Diego a certified private tour guide in the Riviera Maya specialized in Mayan archaeology, nature and adventure. I was born and raised in Chiapas, Mexico, a place surrounded by natural beauties and indigenous communities. I remember that since I was a little child, I dedicated myself to explore the most beautiful corners of my country: rivers, waterfalls, archaeological ruins and climbing volcanoes. Now my job is to share these experiences with others and to raise awareness in preserving our natural resources. Life took me to many places, and 12 years ago I decided to move to Playa del Carmen looking for a relaxing life near the beach. It is beautiful to live here, surrounded by culture, cenotes and the most beautiful beaches of Mexico. Since I arrived here I have worked as a tour guide, a very noble work and I love it. I have guided tours to Mayan ruins, underground caves, Mayan communities, jungle tours with activities like canopy, rappel, ATVs, snorkelin and I had the opportunity to take the great travel writer Rick Steves on two amazing tours here in Riviera Maya! I have learned a lot about the Mayas, their flora, fauna, medicinal plants. I have even learned to speak their local language Maya Yucateco. Now I want to share all these life experiences with you through my private tours, taking you to unique places, giving you the best of the Mexican Caribbean in your next vacation!

    This is an excellent tour and Diego was a great guide! Getting to see Chichen Itza and Ek Balam in the same day was amazing. They are very different experiences and we really wanted to be able to see both of them. Diego gave us so much information (but not too much!) and really made the sites come to life. Having a guide by our side was invaluable. He made everything...

    I highly recommend taking a tour with Diego! From pick up at our hotel through the drop off he made the day enjoyable. He is very knowledgeable and doesn’t just throw facts at you, he asks questions to get you involved. The experience is very personalized for your group. When we return to Mexico we will schedule our next excursion with Diego!!

    Diego wins the day! Absolutely the best experience in Tulum. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history, culture, and all the sites--especially the hidden secrets and personal stories he shared growing up here. Punctual, considerate, friendly, and aims to please his guests. Book it now!
