Hola! My name is Valeria, your local expert on all things Guadalajara! I was born and raised here in Guadalajara, Jalisco: the heart of Mexico. Home of Mariachis, Tequila, Charreria, and amazing food - it exemplifies everything I love about my country. After growing up here I stayed in the city for College, to study communications. This led me to jobs in journalism and a stint in marketing in the tequila industry. My real passion is working directly with other travelers to show them the best that my city has to offer. I have been working full-time as a guide for the last several years. I continue to take classes to learn more about the history of my country and explore more hidden areas of Jalisco. While I have traveled to over 30 countries and have lived in the United States, France, and Colombia, I have always considered Guadalajara my home. As a traveler myself, I understand that others want to make the most out of their time in a new area. I strive to provide experiences that feel more like being shown the city by a good friend rather than a tour guide. With my knowledge of the history, architecture, art, and customs of my city and country, let me share with you the experiences I know and love! Please reach out and let me know if I can assist you with your trip in any way or I could offer a custom tour for you and your group. Looking forward to meeting you! Over 5 years of Guiding Experience in Guadalajara Worked in Marketing for a Tequila Brand Bachelors Degree in Communications Taking Continuing Education Courses on Mexican Art & History Licensed and Insured to drive tourists in Mexico

If you are into architecture and a beer enthusiast, you will love this experience. We'll visit one of the most iconic neighbourhoods of Guadalajara, Colonia Americana, where I'll share its history with you from an architectural perspective. We will spend about an hour and half exploring various historical buildings including residences, Churches and Museums. We will even get to take a peak into an iconic church, where my grandparents watched me sing in the choir. Later on, we'll go to an award winning craft brewery built in a historic theatre. A few years ago I was working on a "Ruta de Cerveza" in Guadalajara - and this brewery is by far my favorite! Here you'll learn about the brewing processes as we do a guided visit, so pour yourself a pint to enjoy as we go behind the scenes and learn how they create their different beers!
·We will begin our tour by meeting in front of the Via Libertad market of the Colonia Americana neighbourhood, from where we will start walking along Avenida Libertad, stopping in front of several residences and buildings. ·We'll proceed to walk inside Templo Expiatorio for a closer look at its incredible stone work and stained glass. ·Later, we will make another stop to go into the MUSA art museum, especially to view a ceiling mural by José Clemente Orozco. ·Next we will walk to an award winning Craft brewery for an informative tour about their brewing process. ·Afterwards we will go upstairs to the Brewery's on-site gastropub for a tasting of 5 varieties of beer! ·At the end of the tour, I'll give you instructions on how to return to your lodging or suggest more local places you might be interested in visiting! This itinerary could be customized upon request.
