Throughout my career, I've work in several areas of the tourism industry including restaurants, hotels, airlines and tour operators from the United States and Canada. I also worked as a Customer Service Representative for Sunquest Vacations. I begun my guiding career leading large groups for several tour operators and cruise lines such as First Choice, Signature Vacations, Virtuoso, Carnival, Disney, Celebrity cruises. Today, I'm proud and happy to be a guide with ToursByLocals. One of the things I enjoy most, is sharing the beauty of my country with visitors. I have a true passion for Mexico- its history, culture, traditions, and people. I love nature, spending time with my family, and meeting people from al over the world. Qualifications : Tourists guide credential issued by tourism department Federal driver license for transporting tourists First Aid course (recurrent) I look forward to showing you the best of Puerto Vallarta and creating unforgettable memories together!

Overview of your Puerto Vallarta tour

San Sebastian del Oeste is one my favorite villages to visit in this region. Located up in the Sierra Madre Mountains, only 2 hours from Puerto Vallarta, we discover this quaint little village with a rich history and a long silver mining tradition. Founded by Spanish Conquistadors back in the XVII Century, San Sebastian del Oeste has been a witness of Mexican history throughout all these years. I feel a connection with these villages, because my grandparents came from this region of Jalisco. San Sebastian del Oeste gives me the chance to connect with my past and to glimpse the beauty of simplicity of old days. You will discover the charm of San Sebastian as you walk the quaint cobbled stone streets and look at the old adobe houses roofed with terracota tiles, and you'll smell the aroma of fresh roasted coffee mixed with the cool breeze from the pine forest. I can customize your tour to meet your needs and interests.
