Hello Amigos! Join me to explore unique experiences. I am an historian and great connoisseur of Art, Architecture, Culture, Museums, Food, Traditions and Lifestyles of Mexico City. I started guiding and sharing my passion of mexican culture when I finished university in 2016 , and since then I have been collaborating with several tour companies. By doing this I discovered the importance of having not only a tour guide, as a traveller you will need a LOCAL FRIEND that can give you any detail about what to do, eat, see, and visit in my city. With my professional experience, my passion for my country and my pride for my culture you will get more than a tour service, you will receive safety, fun, interesting, customized and enriching experiences, ¡ 100% guaranteed ! For the above, I would love to guide you around my city and show you more than of the classic sites, I will also share with you the hidden and fascinating not so known details. I plan carefully every activity for any special request that you might have, so I am happy to customize and offer a memorable experience, so I encourage you to contact me and have a great time while visiting Mexico city. - Major in History by the UNAM (Latin America's Most Important University). - Licesend Tour Guide by the Ministry of Tourism of Mexico - Specialization Course in Mexican Art History by the UNAM and Amparo Museum (2020) - First Aid Certification (2022, 2018). - Course by the Mexican Health Minister in: Tourism: Safe return (Sept 2020) - For larger groups, more than 6 we have to use a Rented Van with private driver, so this will cause an increase in the price of the tours.

Overview of your Mexico City tour

I love this tour because everytime I am amazed by the big mosaic of history, culture, art and lifestyles that this 700 hundred years old city has to offer. In this walking experience I will share with you a time travel across 5 UNESCO heritage sites. I really enjoy this tour because there is simply too much to see, even as a local guide, it always thrills me how the amazing prehispanic past shares the same space with the spanish colonial heritage, and at the same time our modern history was painted by the eyes of Diego Rivera. Definitely this is a time travelling experience. In addition to this, is enlightening how the streets of the downtown are the perfect excuse to admire the different architecture, contemporary lifestyles and flavors we will find in Madero street. This is perfect for enjoying together delicious food and drinks. Come with me and discover places that you could never imagine, my goal is to share what this city can offer, its culture, history and exquisite food.
