“Very Informative Relocation Tour”
Anwar was incredibly informative and had an excellent knowledge of the city. As we are planning to move to Guadalajara (GDL), we wanted to explore the different neighborhoods, and this tour provided a fantastic overview. Anwar did a great job highlighting the best places to live and showed us various parts of GDL, including some notable sites. His expertise made him a valuable resource throughout the tour. If you’re considering a move to GDL, this tour is a great way to start your planning process. I highly recommend it.
