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

Located in one a beautiful area to the south of Mexico City, Coyoacan is considered the most intellectual and bohemian neighborhood in the capital. Historical figures such as Hernan Cortes, Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Leon Trotsky, and many other artists, politicians and all sorts of intellectuals had lived here through times, I will narrate to you local legends, history, anecdotes of the past and present which I have collected here and there. It is a delight to spend a day in Coyoacán visiting the Frida Kahlo Museum, to learn about her life with Diego, her love affairs and the pain of her illnesses, all of which she reflected in her art. On board your private trajinera (Xochimilco traditional boat) a traditional lunch will be offered while navigating through the ancient canals with live mariachi music, colors and fiesta mingling with the Mexican families who come here to celebrate!
