Hello, travelers! I'm Manuel, a tour guide in Mérida's historic center for 6 years. My mission is that, at the end of the tour, you leave with a deep appreciation for the rich history of Mérida, formerly known as Tihó. From the most important moments to the oldest legends, I want every step through this city to make you feel connected to its culture and traditions. Throughout the tour, I will share recommendations on must-see places in Mérida and Yucatán, such as magical cenotes and archaeological sites steeped in history, so you can enjoy your visit even more and discover the best of the region. My goal is that at the end of each tour, you leave with an unforgettable experience and the desire to continue exploring everything this city has to offer. I also enjoy learning languages such as Italian, French, and German, which allows me to enrich my worldview and gain a closer understanding of different cultures.
