Hello, travelers! I'm Manuel, a tour guide in Mérida's historic center for the past six years. My mission is for you to leave with a deep appreciation for Mérida's rich history, formerly known as Tihó. From pivotal moments to ancient legends, I want every step you take through this city to connect you with its culture and traditions. Throughout the tour, I'll share recommendations for must-see places in Mérida and Yucatán, such as magical cenotes and archaeological sites steeped in history, so you can further enjoy your visit and discover the best of the region. My goal is for you to leave with an unforgettable experience and a desire to continue exploring everything this city has to offer. Since being diagnosed with OCD, I've found in tourism a way to overcome this enormous challenge in my life. I also enjoy learning languages like Italian, French, and German in my free time, which allows me to enrich my worldview and connect more deeply with different cultures.
