Welcome to Chiapas! The land of the ancient Mayas and their extraordinary XXI-century descendants, the land of fascinating nature and splendid colonial towns, the land of beautiful mountains and hot tropical selva, the land which makes you fall in love at first sight. I'd like to show you Chiapas I love. I specialize in design, organization and guiding of one- and multi-day tailor-made tours in Chiapas, all Mexico and Central America. I've been living in Mexico since 2010 traveling all around the country. It's my passion which I like to share with my guests. Whether you'd like to climb a volcano, hike in the jungles, swim in a waterfall, stroll along narrow cobblestone streets, meet local indigenous people or learn the profound history of the ancient Mayas, I'll be more than happy to help you.
