Hello! I am a tour guide who lives in the city of Guadalajara - with the best climate in the world, 80º f during the year. The economy is iron, arts&crafts, furniture, shoe women factories, and has several technological parks, and cement companies also. My interest is meeting new people from all over the world and my passion is swimming as a sport. I was for some time a taxi driver and then in 1985 got certified as Bonded Tourist Guide. I have a degree in professional Tourism from the University of Guadalajara. I worked also exporting to USA and Spain (Arts & Crafts) also invited by the government to the Ibero-American Summit in Guadalajara. I worked as a private driver for the President of the Dominican Republic, where I had a wonderful experience. I was also hired by a federal security company as an interpreter for an American who came to install the software system. But apart from all these, I want to tell you that Guadalajara has friendly and helpful people and I have not thought of moving since this beautiful city has everything to live quite happily. Also because of its exceptional climate, Guadalajara and Lake Chapala have around 50, 000 American-Canadian retirees. One of my favorite tours is the Tequila tour since you learn and get to know the process of making the famous Tequila in the Magic Town, and the city center is also very nice with its municipality of Tlaquepaque where there is a great variety of crafts inside colonial-style houses. I wait for you then in my beautiful city of Guadalajara with Mariachis and the famous Tequila, see you soon! >Graduated University of Turism. >Obtained Federal Tourist Guide license >Experience exporting Crafts to USA and Spain. >experience as an interpreter in different events > 38 years of experience I am allowed to be your guide in Spanish and English. Smoking is not allowed in the vehicle

Overview of your Guadalajara tour

Let's learn about the history of 481 years, that the buildings share with us. We can enjoy a good cold beer in the oldest cantina in Guadalajara that opened in 1921. I will share its story about a bicycle that was forgotten. We will visit Tlaquepaque (shopping for handicrafts), a beautiful place with houses from the 18th century and where one would like to spend a whole day in this Magical Town since its stops and restaurants encourage you. We will drive and make a few stops for photos on the road and visit a Gothic Church. You will see close to downtown the technology square that offers a lot of items. After driving by, we will stop to visit the beautiful center of Guadalajara where you can see the Mexican families walking and doing their personal shopping with a pleasant climate. After walking and enjoying the place we will have our food and then we can return to your hotel.
