Description
Are you visiting the Yucatan Peninsula for the first time?
Hear the 'chismesito' (all the tea!) about ancient and modern Campeche
Explore the city with these short but fun Mexican local guides!
There are many ways to feel like a true "campechano" We'll start with this Walking Tour, where you will explore the city center of San Francisco de Campeche while a true local certified tour guide explains you the whole "chisme" about being Mexican!
During that time, you will walk along the colonial streets of the Historic Center of Campeche, finding out all of the juicy details of the neighbors, legends, the hidden secrets of the churches and temples, ex-prisons and other emblematic places of this city with almost 500 years of existence.
You will travel in time as soon as you cross the Puerta de Mar (one of the four old entrances to the city), you will know the main square that used to border the beach, the Cathedral of the city (Nuestra Señora de la Purísima Concepción), churches with tunnels, old cinemas, gold-covered altarpieces, XVII-century mansions with terrifying legends and spooky tales.
In addition, there will be time for you to try a local "agua fresca" (made with the seasonal fruit of your choice, sugar, lemon and lots of refreshing cold water!) and to take the best pictures for your Instagram stories ;)
If booking the daylight tour, I recommend grabbing your best tennis shoes and a cap to enjoy the tour! We will provide an umbrella for protection. If booking the evening tour, you'll experience the best of the sunset illuminating the facade of this old town c:
