Free Walking Tours at Mérida

Fernando is amazing! He is incredibly knowledgeable, easygoing, and such an open and welcoming person. He takes the time to get to know you personally and shares so many fascinating historical facts and interesting stories about Mérida. His passion for the city truly enhances the experience. I highly recommend spending time with him if you want to learn about Mérida from someone who genuinely loves and understands it.

Really comprehensive tour of the centro region. Highly recommend on your first day in Merida

Would recommend to anyone visiting Merida and wants to see a side of local culture! Lulu and Willi took us to a diverse range of different types of cantinas, they explained the history of them as well as information about Merida, differences between Mezcal and Tequila, the plates of food in the cantina were delicious. It felt like we were chatting with friends rather than on a 'tour'. Willi is an amazing salsa dancer and taught us a few moves too. Thanks for a fun afternoon! (Just a note that the email from Guru walk that came through didn't have the correct meeting point for us, but it was only a couple of mins away but maybe check before you arrive where the meeting point is to avoid any confusion :) )

Gabriel was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We learnt a lot.

Lovely tour, highly recommend

Ayer participamos en el tour salsero que ofrece Édgar. Lo recomendamos ampliamente ya que fue divertido y bien organizado. Édgar estuvo al pendiente de nosotros en todo momento y fue muy profesional.

Very good tour.

Excelente walking tour por Mérida con Gabriel. Sus explicaciones fueron súper claras, interesantes y además muy divertidas, hizo que todo el recorrido se sintiera dinámico y nada pesado. La ruta estuvo muy bien pensada y nos permitió conocer muchísimo de la historia y cultura de la ciudad. Se nota la pasión y el conocimiento que tiene. Definitivamente volvería a tomar otro tour con él y lo recomiendo muchísimo a cualquiera que visite Mérida.

So fun, loved the tour and salsa lessons. Highly recommend

It was great! He gave us some amazing local tips where to spend the rest of the day

This is the best way to get the Merida party vibes whilst learning some dance moves. No experience required indeed, lots of fun, with patient and cool instructors. I really recommend it!

We booked the Tour without a having a clue of the city of Merida. Then we met Lulu, José and Willi and directly felt very welcomed by them. They told us about the story of Merida, in a way we could have never figured out by ourselves and they showed us cantinas and places that we couldn’t have found by ourselves too. The three are a perfect mix of age, experience and background. They answered every question we had to the fullest. We would recommend this tour 100%. A big thank you to the three! We loved it!

Samuel muy buen guia

Interesting tour with the focus of Maya culture. Thanks a lot!

Muy buen tour para conocer la historia del centro de Merida!

Jose was brilliant. It was an excellent way to spend a very hot day in this beautiful city! Jose is a gentleman! And we loved our time with him in the amazing array of cantinas! I

Super guide ! Merci Gabriel !

Amazing tour!

Me fui sola y he pasado la noche con una pareja y Edgar y su novia. Ha sido una noche estupenda, hemos reído mucho y edgar nos explicó muchas historias y leyendas de la ciudad y de su cultura. Luego hemos tomado una clase de salsa nivel básico, apta para todo el mundo. Tour muy recomendado!!

Gabriel is clearly proud of his city and his heritage. He spoke clearly and provided valuable information. You don’t walk very far but you get a good amount of information nonetheless. Good tour.

Gabriel was a fantastic tour guide. He provided us with so much information about Merida, and was happy to answer all of our questions from history to food recommendations.

Recommend this tour! Edgar is super nice and friendly

Our tour wasn’t with Gabriel but Angel was brilliant

We were the only persons, so it feeled like a personal tour for us. Conzalo Eduardo was very kind and told us a lot of fun facts about Mayan Culture and the history of Merida and Peninsula. He took the time to answering all our questions. Thanks a lot for this walk :)

Muy buena experiencia. Nos gustó mucho. Recomiendo hacerlo. Gracias.
