We spent an afternoon wandering around Guanajuato with Naomi and it was an absolutely perfect introduction to Guanajuato. Naomi loves her city and we loved it, too. She gave great advice about shopping, food, activities and museums. She was so knowledgeable and friendly. She was available for advice by WhatsApp for the remainder of our time in the city. This was one of our best experiences with an intro to a city tour! Highly recommend Naomi!Great Tour

Naomi is... Wonderful! She is very easygoing and relaxed, we loved our stroll through Guanajuato and Naomi exposing us to real Mexico. Her recommendations for restaurants, pulque (a light alcoholic drink), hiking, and leather in Guanajuato was superb. We saw her on the street the next night and she was so warm... A true friend. Two hours well spent!A Friend you didn't know you had!

Naomi took us for a wonderful afternoon walk. She tailored our tour to things we were interested in and gave great information about the city and its history. She pointed out restaurants and shops for us to visit. We visited La Presa de la Olla stopping along the way to see some local hidden gems like Parlemento Bar located in a beautiful old mansion converted to house small boutique stores and businesses located by the municipal palace. Overall, a great way to get to know the city and kickstart your visit! Great afternoon in Guanajuato!!

We spent a pleasant two hours walking around the historical center with Ellisa. She was personable and fun. Some in our group were looking for a tour offering more historical knowledge of the art, architecture and history of Guanajuato. Overall, a pleasant afternoon. Tour with Elisa
