Hello, my name is Belén Chávez, I am a tourist guide and actress, I love the history of my country, I have been a professional guide for more than 6 years in Mexico City. Every day I go out looking for different places and stories in the city, I am passionate about living in a place so diverse and enriching in culture, food and entertainment. I offer a fun and passionate experience for you to fall in love with and enjoy the city, I share curious facts, my favorite corners and I give you the best tips so you can get to know the city like a local. I promise you that you will understand why Mexico is a great country, why we celebrate the Day of the Dead, why our food is the best and why we laugh at everything.
My partner and I had a great experience with Belen on the tour. She was knowledgeable and friendly, with just the right amount of engagement. I have recommended her to fellow travelers I have met on other tours during the rest of our visit.
Belen is great. She is very friendly, welcoming and has a ton of information. She answered all of our questions and even more. Definitely would recommend the tour with her.
Great tour and guide! Made us feel more comfortable in the neighbourhood
Belin gave us the best tour ever of our favorite neighborhood, Coyoacán. At the central market she introduced us to Aztec mythology at a market stall so we also got some practice shopping. We sampled indigenous fruits with explanations from women vendors. Belin showed us old Coyoacán, explained the politics of public art, and summarized the history and culture of one of the artistic centers of the city. (She recommended novels, the diary of Freda Kahlo, and other works of literature and history.) She pointed out special sites that would otherwise go unnoticed like the tiny shrine to a boy killed by a crazed general in the 1930s where neighbors keep candles lit. Her delivery was clear, her energy contagious, and her passion for her county, especially its culture, inspiring. 11/10
