I'm passionate about the history, traditions, rich gastronomy, nature observation, and social dynamics that make for the cultural wealth of this complex country that we call Mexico. At every place I guide you, I'll provide information about the history, art, famous people, and special places that you will find beautiful and interesting. Before being an independent nation Mexico was a colony of the Spanish Empire for almost 300 years, we inherited a legacy of architecture, art, religion, social organization, gastronomy, language, and traditions that mixed with the ancient culture of the civilizations that strived here. Mexico has several archaeological sites, natural marvels, colonial towns, and traditions that I take pride in going off the beaten track to find. People and their complex relations is a most interesting field of study through direct contact, history, and even archaeology; on my tours and services you'll contact with the communities, the cooperatives, and the real people who offer their services and the role I play is of a facilitator and translator for you to get to know the country as deep as you may. My adventure-seeking attitude, preparation as a certified Tour Guide, Dive Master, and other qualifications will lead you toward the most thrilling experiences in the most professional way. Every activity I plan carefully for the safety and full enjoyment of my customers, with more than 25 years of experience in the tourism industry, I am committed to the service and well-being of my guests, who often become long-lasting friendships. I started in the tourism activity as a waiter and earned the Five Diamond Award for Excellence in Service two years in a row at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Cancun, I have experience planning complex logistics, leading groups, solving special requests, and enjoying new demanding challenges. Thank you for your interest in my services, I'm looking forward to providing a memorable experience of your visit to Mexico.

Overview of your Mexico City tour

Join me on a day trip to the Mexican state of Puebla where we'll visit Cholula and downtown Puebla, just two hours away from Mexico City. The highway among the mountains has great landscapes and breathtaking views of the Iztaccihuatl and Popocatepetl volcanoes; Cholula is famous for its hundreds of churches, the most impressive to me, Santa María Tonanzintla showcasing a fine example of indigenous baroque architecture. Puebla is popularly known as the "City of Angels", I'll take you on a walking tour through the beautiful historic center to admire and tell you stories about the Main Square, the Cathedral, the Rosary Chapel, a library that will take your breath away and many buildings from the XVI to the XIX centuries and the stories behind them. After lunch we'll enjoy the arts & crafts market full of the most beautiful and traditional art of central Mexico.
