Hello! Welcome to México, I'm Tita and I have been an Official Certified Tourist Guide since 2013. The things that I enjoyed more have always been traveling, nature, and learn about other cultures, that is why now I feel so lucky to work in what I love. I have worked as a guide in Spain and Italy, now I'm also working as a tour leader for multiday tours in Belize, Guatemala, Cuba and Italy. As a nature and archaeological guide, I consider essential for everybody to preserve our different ecosystems with a conscience about the connection between Nature and our cultural heritage. I have the idea that as much we travel and interact with the local people from the places that we are visiting; our understanding and respect for the other cultures grow and that will help to create a better world. I invite you to have an authentic local experience. All my excursions are Customized!

We cannot recommend Tita highly enough! From the moment she picked us up right on time, she made our family of five feel welcomed and completely at ease. Her English was excellent, and her knowledge of Tulum, the Maya civilization, local culture, plants, wildlife, and history was incredible. Every question we asked was met with a thoughtful, detailed answer. Traveling with three kids (ages 8, 10, and 11) can be challenging, but Tita was wonderful with them. She kept drinks and snacks available throughout the day, paced the tour perfectly, and made sure everyone was engaged and having fun. One of the highlights was the beautiful cenote she chose for us. It was absolutely stunning, and the cliff jump was an unforgettable adventure for our kids. To top it all off, she surprised us afterward with a spread of fresh local fruits, explaining each one and encouraging all of us to try something new. It was such a thoughtful and memorable way to end the day. Tita also brought along her 11-year-old nephew (discussed with us beforehand), who was an absolute joy. He was kind, helpful, and interacted so naturally with our kids that it felt like they had another friend along for the adventure. A perfect addition. We loved getting to spend the day with someone who genuinely loves sharing her knowledge and culture. It was absolutely one of the highlights of our entire trip to Mexico, and we'll be talking about it for years to come. Thank you, Tita, for giving our family such an unforgettable day! If you're debating between a large group tour and booking with Tita, don't hesitate. Our family agreed this was worth every penny and one of the best travel experiences we've ever had.

Tita was THE best tour guide! I’ve taken several Tour By Locals on my travels, so if you are in the Akumal/Tulum area, contact her for sure!! She was so attentive, knowledgeable and easy to understand. You will gain knowledge of the amazing places of interest. She was very accommodating to our needs, and delivered a 5 star experience. I’d book again

Excellent guide who is passionate about the region and its history. Tailored the tour to make it accessible to our kids (6 and 4 years old) and kept them engaged while imparting a lot of knowledge - no easy feat! The transport she arranged was likewise excellent. I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a private tour in the area.

Teresita was great. We had a private tour for 3 adults and 6 kids ages 8-17 and it was a great day. We went to Muyil rather than Tulum as we wanted a 9 AM start. We had lunch with Teresita and our driver. Great day with a great guide. Was really good with our kids too.
