We found Guadalajara to be a beautiful city -- clean, friendly and tranquil even when there a FIFA match going on. Historic downtown district is very walkable with beautiful churches and museums. Zapopan and Tlaquepaque are full of beautiful silver, pottery, and unique art.
Alex was our tour guide. During and even before our tour Alex was very open and knowledgeable about the history of Guadlajara and the competing Mexican identities throughout the years. As we wandered around Guadlajara Alex told us about several of Guadaljara's historic figures, places, and events. Something Alex did a really good job of was making little recommendations as we explored the city, including good tequila stores, drinks, and restaurants. He also made seversl food recommendations, which our group were more than happy to utilize subsequently. We would recommend Alex as a tour guide. He was able and amiable.

Amazing walking tour, worth the time and money
Alex was knowledgeable, very kind and had a great pace. Thank you for the information
I didn’t go. I don’t understand why the price jumps from 48.00 to 69.00 because I am alone. It’s a group walk, what is the difference? This seemed unreasonable to me, logically, that’s why I’m not going and that’s why a poor review.
We had such a tour of the city with Alex. His knowledge and flow of the tour was excellent! Highly recommend if you want the history of the city.
One of the best walking tours I’ve experienced. Amazing amount of information! Thank you, Alex! Highly recommended!!!
