I have been living in Tlaxcala and I love its tradition, culture and tranquility, for 2 years I have been certified as a guide in nature by the Minister of Tourism of Mexico and after exploring every corner of the State of Tlaxcala I can tell you that I am Tlaxcala at heart.

The greatness of Tlaxcala will surprise you for its architectonic wealth in its temples, churches and buildings, but also for its natural grandeur and its great landscapes, without forgetting the exquisite flavour of its traditional dishes that will not only reach your palate but also your heart.

I have a deep taste for the great cultural, natural and gastronomic wealth of the State of Tlaxcala, but above all for its people. I have a career in tourism and I have always been passionate about the history of the places where I have had the opportunity to live, and I realized that I enjoy visiting every corner of this beautiful State.

Today my biggest dream is to be able to generate a productive chain that allows artisans, traditional cooks and producers to improve their quality of life through Tourism.

Come and see for yourself the beauty, uniqueness and diversity that Tlaxcala has, travel with me through the magnificent history, taste the traditional food and meet Tlaxcala from a very local and friendly perspective.

This tour has a very special magic, I remember that when I was little I wanted to be an archaeologist, however, life led me to another more complete profession and I love what I do, one of the treasures that our tlaxcalateca culture has, is the great ancestral vestige of Xicalan Olmecs, who lived in the region and who built very important archaeological zones that to this day are very representative worldwide, such as Cacaxtla and Xochitecatl.

We will arrive at the archaeological zone of Cacaxtla-Xochitecatl and we will visit its vestiges and the great history that it keeps, we will know the history of the warriors eagles and jaguaras well as its site museum, being two different archaeological zones, we will first visit Cacaxtla and then Xochitecatl, both with great wealth.

Once we do the tours in the two areas, we will go to Val'quirico, a tourist complex created with Italian airs like Tuscany, where you can enjoy a unique walk and taste a dish in one of the restaurants or bars that offer a variety menu.

For me, Tlaxcala is and will always be the first city with a history that will take you back to the past, the simple fact of knowing that a social order already existed when the Spaniards arrived, makes you think of an impressive evolutionary process where not only the indigenous people were dedicated to creating crafts or agriculture, their great wealth is reflected in one of the buildings created by the Spanish where we can see the great cultural and ancestral wealth that was created with miscegenation, the

In every street of Tlaxcala you will breathe the history and culture, despite the centuries you will find well-preserved buildings, majestic and colonial atmosphere, you will enjoy every corner and taste a refreshing drink named CACAO,
but, you will also find Val'Quirico!
A typical Tuscany village in heart of Mexico, its narrow streets and tiny plazas are a great place to just stroll through the streets and take it all in.

Walk through the streets and enjoy the magic that surrounds Tlaxcala.
