Mexico is a warm and welcoming country, full of culture, color, and traditions. I would be delighted to share with you its rich heritage—from pre‑Hispanic times with pyramids and ancient cities, to the colonial era with colossal churches and centuries‑old houses, to the vibrant and colorful markets that make you feel as though you’ve stepped back in time. Trained as an English teacher at the local university, in 2011 I decided to take a new path and studied to become a licensed tour guide at the same institution. My passions are history and archaeology, and I also enjoy outdoor activities such as cycling and hiking. I offer tours in Querétaro (including the Franciscan Missions), San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico City, the pyramids of Teotihuacán, the Monarch Butterfly sanctuaries, and many other destinations. My guiding license allows me to lead tours throughout Mexico, so if you’d like to visit a place not listed among my regular tours, feel free to send me a message—I’ll be happy to arrange a customized experience just for you. Come and experience vibrant Mexico!

Overview of your Guanajuato tour

Guanajuato is one of the most captivating cities in Mexico. In the 16th century, settlers arrived here after the discovery of rich silver and gold mines, which gave the city its historic importance. This four‑hour tour is designed to show you the main highlights of the historic center. We’ll begin at the Juárez Theater and continue on foot to visit the Basilica of Guanajuato, the optional Diego Rivera Museum, the famous Alley of the Kiss, the Alhóndiga de Granaditas, and several beautiful plazas. If time allows, we can take public transport to explore the Mummy Museum or visit an old silver mine in La Valenciana, where you’ll also see the stunning church of San Cayetano. I can arrange private transportation if we plan to visit the silver mine or the Mummy Museum. Please note that this service has an additional cost. Join me and discover the history, culture, and charm of Guanajuato!
