I am passionate about traveling and adventures, likely as you are. I am 38 years old and currently living in Mexico City, providing private tours to international customers. I was born and raised in Mexico, but have extensively traveled Europe, North, and Central America. At the age of 19, I moved to Montreal - Canada - for what was a life-changing experience. The time spent living in Canada allowed me not only to improve my language skills (both English and French) but contributed to change my entire perspective and shape my personality. As I returned to Mexico, I started working as an adventure tour guide in the Mayan Riviera, guiding people on ATVs through the jungle or snorkeling in the coral reefs. Then I moved back to Mexico City and started my tour guiding career here in DF, touring people on Segways around the city. I am passionate about the outdoor, I really enjoy the feeling to be out in the mountains, hiking and camping. I also love film and music in particular jazz, funk and soul. Let me show you Mexico City, one of the biggest cities in the world, rich in history, myths, legends, street life, and culture. This capital is both the oldest capital city in the Americas and what was once the biggest and most powerful empire. Let's discover the most interesting museums, delight our palate at restaurants and markets. We'll visit jaw-dropping ancient sites, and feed our eyes with art at Frida Kalo's house. We'll follow Pancho Villa's trails while we try the best tequila in town. Let's learn how to dance to the hottest Latin live music. All this and so, so much more. . . Life is not about finding yourself, life is about creating yourself. Certified Tour Guide # N009922. Certified by the Ministry of Tourism Professional experience in Ecotourism in the Mayan Riviera. I only do pick-ups within Mexico City central area. Santa Fe, Interlomas, Puebla, and Queretaro are not included.
