Super walking tour in Guanajuato with Susana - Susana was a superlative guide much appreciated by our group of 11. She was so kind and considerate and spoke perfect English. We learned so much history and delighted in all our stops of beautiful places. Our juice tasting and food tasting were fun and delicious. During our city walking tours in many other Mexican cities the consensus was that Susana was our best guide. WE would highly recommend her.

Historic tour of Guanajuato - Mariana was a fabulous guide, possessing genuine fascination with the history of Guanajuato, she shared her great depth of knowledge about the history and culture of the "three Guanajuatos". You'll have to visit to learn what the three are! Highly recommend! Thank you, Mariana, we hope to return for another wonderful tour.

A ten star walking tour - One of the most informative and exciting walking tours we have taken. Mariana was full of warm energy and her knowledge of the history and culture of Guanajuato and its place in the history of México, was impressive. On top of that she gave us recommendations for some of the best restaurants in the city. LOVED IT!!

Best Small Group Tour - Our guide, Mariana, is a lovely woman, with detailed knowledge of the history of Guanajuato and Mexico. He took us through the tourist town and gave us an appreciation of this beautiful and special town. While we were walking we met large groups following a guide who spoke on headphones. Which confirmed the best it is to see Guanajuato in a small or private group.

Best walking tour I've ever done - I've visited over 70 countries and been on countless tours, but Maria's walking tour of Guanajuato was my favourite. She has extensive knowledge and passion for the history of the town. She knows where to find tasty food and coffee that doesn't come up when only relying on smartphone to find things. She took us through time and space to see a wide variety of what the town has to offer, and is an excellent ambassador for the city. Maria herself is extremely personable - it felt like we were reconnecting with an old friend or cousin we hadn't seen in a while. I highly recommend this walking tour with Maria.

Amazing Tour with Mariana – History, Culture, and Local Flavors - We joined a 3-hour tour yesterday with Mariana, and it was fantastic! Mariana was an incredible guide – she tailored the tour to our interests, sharing deep insights into the history of Mexico and Guanajuato, and offering personalized recommendations for the best, most authentic Mexican food and coffee spots. Whenever there were things we didn’t fully understand, Mariana took the time to explain patiently, making sure we got the full experience. We are very grateful for her guidance and highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a truly local and enriching experience.
