Additional Information

Familiar with the Metropolitan Cathedral, the Government Palace, the Degollado Theater, and the Cabañas Cultural Institute yet curious about the other ancient structures in the Historic Center? Interested in learning more about local legends, family histories, and distinguished individuals, right outside the residences where they lived? Join me for a unique journey through the lesser-known side of the center, a part that most tours overlook but is vital to the rich history of the city’s expansion. As a native who studied Tourism and am passionate about my city, I take part in groups committed to preserving culture and heritage. I also offer the ‘Full Day Tour Food, Murals, History and Walking’ experience. This experience aims to add to your overall understanding of Guadalajara.

Best tour guide! - Noemi is an excellent guide; she showed us places we had not seen on our previous tour, and she did it with grace, spunk, and a bit of humor. She answered any and all of our questions kindly and thoroughly, and was very flexible. At one point one of us was hungry, and she proceeded to a wonderful restaurant in the square and sat with us (and paid too!). Highly recommend A+

Best tour of Central Guadalajara - This is the best tour my family and I have ever done. Noemi is very energetic and full of so much knowledge. She taught us so many amazing details and history facts about each place we saw and about Guadalajara in general. Every site we saw was truly breathtaking and beautiful. Great tour if you want to learn more about the culture.
