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.

Overview of your Puebla tour

Explore one of Mexico’s most fascinating and beautiful archaeological sites. Just 1.5 hours from Puebla City, Cantona was once a thriving Mesoamerican city, remarkable for having the largest number of ballgame courts ever discovered and for its strategic location along ancient trade routes. Walk through its impressive stone causeways, plazas, and temples while enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys. Let yourself be captivated by the unique landscape where semi-desert plants blend with patches of forest, creating a serene and unforgettable atmosphere.

Highly highly recommend taking a tour with Alejandra. And if you don’t mind a little drive in the beautiful Puebla countryside then you should do the Cantona tour because that archeological site is absolutely amazing. We also had a nice lunch after and enjoyed seeing one of the old nearby Hacienda’s and meeting that family. Their small museum is incredible!

Alejandra was an amazing guide! She is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She always took the time to answer all my questions and her English is great as well! I have been to many countries and tours and she is one of the best guides I have ever encountered. She is very passionate about what she does and I had a great trip with her to Cantona. I’m a vegan and she was nice enough to find a place for me to eat and even ate with me while we were at the restaurant. I would without hesitation recommend her to anyone visiting Mexico. She will make your entire trip an unforgettable experience!
