I've been living in Veracruz for 35 years and I love it! Veracruz is known as the main entrance of the mexican culture and its History. Veracruz is also rich in nature, is one of the states of México that has a lot of types of ecosystems, and I would like to have the opportunity to share my love of Veracruz and its heritages with you because knowing is loving, and maybe if you let me be your guide you will love Veracruz and you will want to come back. I've worked as a tour guide for 15 years, not only in the city of Veracruz, also in its sorroundings. All my tours can be customized depending of your needs and expectations. Tourist Guide Certified by Mexican Goverment, training as Gay Friendly Tourist Guide, also I have done a lot of courses of History of México and Veracruz, and I studied Tourism at the University. I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver when the tour doesn't includes tranportation. I am not an adventure guide, so in the adventure tours, I will be with you and another certified person will be guiding you.
