I'm a certified Mexican tour guide with years of experience with small and large groups inside Mexico City and its surroundings but also at colonial cities and the south of the country. I love Mexico City prehispanic and Colonial City history and our amazing cultural heritage ( food included) and I think this country of mine is one of the most interesting and culturally rich places to visit. Being a tourist guide for me means that you never stop learning and studying, in order to have all the tools and knowledge I can to make people love Mexico the way I do. I'm really lucky for living in a city where we can find plenty of historical places and where almost every building can tell you a little part of our history. Mexico city is a city full of life and we are always willing to meet new people, we well known for our good mood and our hospitality, so you wont regret choosing Mexico City as your destination. I have a degree on International Relations and studies of tourism, history and Nahuatl Language. I love animals and nature life, art and drawing, but my biggest passion is learning and being a tourist in my own country. I hope we can meet and you let me show this country I truly love. I'm certified as a federal tourist guide by Mexican Secretary of tourism. I am not a driver, but I can arrange for a driver and car rental if needed. For pick up included tours Santa Fe area and address outside Mexico City are not covered.

My Main goal is to guide you through the place as I recall the events that led to the beginign of Lady of Guadalupe Cult, meanwhile we learn and experience the peace and joy this sanctuary brings to mexican people.
