Anwar was a fantastic guide. His knowledge and expertise of the area was top notch. His love for the city was evident.
Luis provided an informative and interesting tour of Guadalajara going back to the very beginning where nomadic tribes populated the area. It gave a flavour of what makes Guadalajara unique.
Our tour guide was amazing. We were able to easily view much of Guadalajara squeezed into less than two hours. Highly, highly, highly, highly recommended
