With more than 25 years of experience in both national and international Travel Industry and with a multicultural past, I continue to enjoy sharing México´s incredible past, from its multiethnic pre hispanic cultures , to its lively cosmopolitan present that greets us with a vast cultural offer (museums, galleries, theaters and concert halls ) a rich gastronomy (with a variety of ethnoastronomical market corners to the most exclusive offer of Michelin star restaurants).
Mexico is a cultural mosaic sharing its ancient past along with its Iberian roots that are an amalgam of Greco-Latin , Goth, Moorish, and Jewish influences, that sprout in the white smile and cheerful expressions of its inhabitants who are proud of their mix race heritage and they expressed it in everyday life though music dance , festivals, cooking , and art all shared with passion.
Allow me to help you discover the many faces of Mexico by sharing its past and its present with a smile on our faces. Welcome to Mexico!!

DOWNTOWN MEXICO
Sitting on the bed of what was the Island of Tenochtitlan in one of the five lagoons that made up the basin of Mexico, the Historic Center of Mexico City, is an open window between past and present, Each street, each building and stone speak words of a poem taking us to the very roots of our culture as it continue to embrace us as it did in the past, permanently weaving ties to new comers as part of the distinctive character of our rich legacy.
MEETING FRIDA AND DIEGO
Love and hate are combined in a romance full of distances and reconciliations, an unstable love but one that would unite them for eternity. Passionate and tender, a relationship born on August 21, 1929, and marked by a carefree love overflowing with passion. that transcends time and space. Join me to uncover this intimacy, as we travel between streets, bricks and walls, brushes, and colored canvases so full and yet sometimes so empty.
TEMPLO MAYOR MUSEUM AND ARCHEOLOGICAL SITE
After a pilgrimage of approximately 252 years from the mythical Aztlan / Chicomostoc, nomadic tribes settled on the western shore of Lake Texcoco, eventually founding the capital city Tenochtilan of what was to become the largest empire in Mesoamerica. The group called themselves Mexicas and the remains of their magnificent capital are part of today’s urban landscape as a result of a careful work of urban archeologist
MEXICO´S MURALISTIC MOVMENT OF THE XX CENTURY
Upon his return from Europe in 1922 Diego Rivera was commissioned by the then Minister of Education Jose Vasconcelos, to paint the walls of the Bolivar Amphitheater of the Old College of San Idelfonso, giving birth to one of the most influential art movements in the world. Rivera and his contemporaries David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Jose Clemente Orozco, worked with fresco techniques depicting the greatness of becoming a nation.

“Exceptionally Excellent Guide”
We were fortunate enough to have Roberto Gonzalez as our Guide for Mexico City and surrounding areas. Roberto spoke English very well, he had an excellent command of the language. His knowledge about Mexican History, culture and art were remarkable. He brought the timeline of Mexican history to life for us. He was always very prompt and pleasant to be with. He had a good sense of humor that we appreciated. He enhanced our time in Mexico unmeasurably. We truly appreciated having him for our guide. By the end of our time together we felt like we had made a great friend in Roberto, he is truly a kind and caring man. We highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an exceptional guide. Most Sincerely Hayworth and Kristi Louie

My name is Miroslava. I'm a native of Xochimilco and a proud winner of the most meaningful beauty contest in CDMX 'La flor más bella del ejido' 2006. Because of this, I became a cultural ambassador and guardian of my culture and community. I learned embroidery from my grandma when I was 12 years old, and later on, I continued learning from handcrafter friends from different communities around Mexico. I've been teaching and holding workshops on embroidery since 2010. In 2012, I launched a brand/workshop called "TRAMA", which now, after 13 years of experience and building a community of handcrafters, offers not only artisanal products and workshops but also unique experiences to visit and live Xochimilco's culture and nature.
