Exploring Guadalajara and Surroundings

The region of Jalisco is the most representative of the whole country. Jalisco is the land of the mariachi, tequila, charreria, and much more. Its colored villages invite you to walk, relax, and have fun. With many attractions like museums, galleries, shops, and excellent restaurants. The state capital, Guadalajara, is a fascinating place, a cosmopolitan city with its very own identity. The Lake Chapala area, with beautiful towns and very gentle weather throughout the year, is a favorite destination for winter vacations. Mexico is a country with a very rich culture and history. Ranks first in the Americas in the number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Its diversity of customs, its magnificent and traditional cuisine, climate, and above all, the friendliness of its people are what make this country a place to visit at least once in your life, always invited to return. Socrates said: "There is only one good, knowledge. There is only one evil, ignorance". My passion to know my country, its very vast history and culture, is what motivated me to become a tour guide. Since I was very young, I have enjoyed interacting with people from all over the world. I have been fortunate to be able to travel, live, and work in many different countries and learn about other cultures and customs. Now that I have the time and opportunity to show my country to visitors from any part of the world, I have the feeling that I am reaping the benefits of the knowledge I have cultivated all my life. Most of my life I have lived in this beautiful region, and I know very well its places, customs, and lots of nice and helpful people who always make us feel welcome. I am a good, experienced driver, and you always feel comfortable and safe in my vehicle. I will always do my best to make your experience in this region of Mexico memorable and enjoyable. I am a professional book editor and photographer. For the past 25 years, I have edited art books for museums, art galleries, and artisan towns. I have been working in the hospitality business for more than 20 years. While working for the local newspaper, I visited all the museums, historical sites, and buildings, as well as most of the towns and villages in the State of Jalisco, writing articles and taking photographs of all these places.
