Mexico is a warm and welcoming country, full of culture, color, and traditions. I would be delighted to share with you its rich heritage—from pre‑Hispanic times with pyramids and ancient cities, to the colonial era with colossal churches and centuries‑old houses, to the vibrant and colorful markets that make you feel as though you’ve stepped back in time. Trained as an English teacher at the local university, in 2011 I decided to take a new path and studied to become a licensed tour guide at the same institution. My passions are history and archaeology, and I also enjoy outdoor activities such as cycling and hiking. I offer tours in Querétaro (including the Franciscan Missions), San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico City, the pyramids of Teotihuacán, the Monarch Butterfly sanctuaries, and many other destinations. My guiding license allows me to lead tours throughout Mexico, so if you’d like to visit a place not listed among my regular tours, feel free to send me a message—I’ll be happy to arrange a customized experience just for you. Come and experience vibrant Mexico!

Overview of your Queretaro tour

Discover the rich history of this marvelous city as you explore its beautiful churches and civic buildings, constructed between the 16th and 19th centuries. Since 1996, the Historic Center has proudly held its place on the UNESCO World Heritage list. During that era, Mexico was a colony of Spain, and the Spanish influence is still evident in the architecture of these remarkable buildings. Mexico is a land where Spanish and indigenous cultures intertwine. As you walk through the city, you’ll hear stories that span from pre‑Hispanic times to the present, all within one of the cleanest, safest, and most beautiful cities in the country. I grew up here and have witnessed the town’s many transformations, yet the Historic Center has never lost its magic. In its hidden corners, you truly feel as though you’ve stepped back in time. Join me, and let me guide you through this fascinating city.

We booked a custom week-long tour with Aaron covering Querétaro, San Miguel de Allende, and Guanajuato. Communication prior to the trip was smooth and efficient through both email and WhatsApp. Aaron also assisted in arranging transportation from Querétaro Airport to our hotel in the city center, which was greatly appreciated. During our walking tour of Santiago de Querétaro, we visited numerous churches—both interiors and exteriors—to admire their architectural features. Aaron was patient and never rushed us, allowing us to explore at our own pace. He answered all our questions thoroughly and provided insightful historical context about the city, the state, and Mexico as a whole. Aaron’s English is excellent, and his professionalism, extensive knowledge, and thoughtful service significantly enhanced our travel experience. We wholeheartedly recommend him for any of the tours he offers.

Aaron is a fantastic tour guide. His knowledge of the history of Queretaro and Mexico is vast—and he obviously loves this beautiful and cultural city. He showed us many places that we would never have found without his help and even drove us to see the aqueduct. Aaron spent more time with us than required and was a tremendously gracious host. His English is perfect. Highly recommend!
