    I’d like to say a huge thank you to Jesus for the incredible walking tour he gave me! It started a little late as i booked same day and he wasn’t there to start with, but I waited it out with the help of the staff and I am glad I did. Jesus is a wealth of information and taught me so much about Mexico and the incredible history of beautiful Queretaro. He is incredibly generous with his time and I do not think you’ll find another who so generously shares his knowledge like he does. I wish I had more time with him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour to others.

    Jesus, our guide, was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We learned a lot on Mexican history (independence and revolution), local legends, architecture and arts… Jesus took us to churches and convents, with very thorough explanations. He also gave anecdotes on buildings, way of life etc. I highly recommend this tour.

    I want to express my appreciation for the tour I received. At all times, with a patience and education that today are no longer seen so often. He waited for me without any haste and took the time to explain every detail very clearly.
