This is a must do! The opportunity to meet and visit world renowned artisans is one of the best cultural experiences I've had in 20+ years of traveling the world! It deserves more publicity and should be a top of mind -go to destination when in Guadalajara! Fernando is very knowledgeable - knows the history, is aware of current social implications but most of all - it is transparent that the Artisans appreciate and value the extended education he offers visitors and keeping the cultural art alive!! The passion and love for the history and art transcends.. we even got to make our own piece of art...shockingly enjoyable, relaxing and now a very cherished piece of art in our home..made by us with the help of a professional!! All in the group approved this review!! Can't wait wait to go back!!

Our tour guide Fernando was very knowledgeable on every area we asked him about, from the artisans to the history to the current economy.... You name it, and he knew about it! We enjoyed meeting and talking with the artisans, watching them work, and hearing their stories. We had a delightful lunch in beautiful Tlaquepaque and then fun shopping. The night before our tour I injured my ankle (later found out it was broken) and asked Fernando if we could stop on the way to purchase a cane for me. He did better than that and brought his Abuella's wheelchair for me to use! It was a life saver. If I could rate this tour 10 stars I would!
