Diego might be the only game in town, but his tour would also be excellent in a more competitive tourism market like NYC or Paris. As it was, I felt like I had a local friend with encyclopedic knowledge of the Mercado Libertad show me around the most delicious eateries of his hometown. I speak okay Spanish but get SO NERVOUS at the market stalls with no menus where everybody talks super fast--but Diego made me feel at home. A true highlight of my trip--will be back next time!

Our private tour with Diego was very informative, well paced and delightful. I highly recommend this tour if you want to learn about history of Guadalajara at your own pace, taste the local flavors and explore the largest indoor market in all of Latin America, Mercado San Juan de Dios. Diego greeted us as soon as we arrived at the meeting point. We walked to the market and he explained the history and showed us old photos before we entered. As Diegon is an avant- foodie and tried almost all the food posts, we knew we were in good hands when we went to his personal favorite spots. We had barbocoa tacos, and tacos ahogadas right away. We then walked through the market visiting local fruit stands, butcher shops, homeopathic medicinal shops, art and craft stands. After the market, Diego showed us significant landmarks, took us to Magno Centro, largest jewelry store in Latin America. Since we had already done a prior walking tour with Guru, Diego went above and beyond by showing us anything that Guru typically might not have gone over with us. We walked to the 9 Corners after and was dropped off at one of the oldest birria restaurants- this one is optional and we decided to try it. Diego is amazing and hopefully I’m not biased as he lived 2 years in Vancouver, where I am from and was able to give a lot of references to Vancouver:) Diego born and raised in Guadalajara, but also very well traveled, worldly. He is very passionate about supporting the local economy, hence, returning to help open up the eyes of foreigners to Guadalajara. I highly recommend this to everyone keen on digging deeper into learning about Guadalajara.
