I’m just a "normal Mexican woman", but with a deep love for my country and a passion for sharing its beauty and history with others. From a young age, I’ve been captivated by Mexico’s rich traditions, vibrant culture, amazing landscapes, and, of course, its fascinating history and gastronomy. My passion for these topics led me to become a tour guide, where I get to connect people with the heart and soul of Mexico, making their experience something memorable and meaningful. As a certified tour guide, I specialize in offering customized, personal tours that meet the unique interests and needs of my clients. Whether you're exploring the ancient wonders of Mexico's archaeological sites, the serene beauty of rural communities, the bustling energy of museums, or the irresistible flavors of our local cuisine, I ensure every experience is tailored to make your time in Mexico unforgettable. No group is too small! Whether you’re a solo traveler or in a small group, I’m committed to providing you with a high standard of service, and a deeper understanding of the places you’ll visit. I primarily guide tours in Puebla State, Mexico City, and the surrounding areas, offering an immersive experience that goes beyond the surface. Through heritage interpretation, I help you connect with the rich cultural, historical, and natural landscapes that define these regions. From ancient indigenous traditions to the colonial influences that shaped modern Mexico, every site tells a deeper story—one that reveals not just the facts, but the emotions, struggles, and triumphs of the people who have shaped this land.

Step off the beaten path and into the heart of Xochimilco’s ancient waterways. On this immersive tour, you'll discover the rich history of the Mexico Basin and how the once-vast Great Lake was lost. Explore Xochimilco not only as a colorful canal system but as a Natural Protected Area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We’ll dive into the legacy of the Xochimilca people and the origins of the ingenious chinampa farming technique—a sustainable agricultural practice that dates back to pre-Hispanic times. Learn about the area’s unique biodiversity, the environmental and social challenges it faces today, and the inspiring community projects and ecological restoration efforts working to protect and revive this vital wetland. This is not just a tour, it’s a deep cultural and environmental experience that connects you with the living past and urgent present of Xochimilco.
