As a result of progress and industrialization in Mexico, the working class and the middle class emerged. Thanks to this, the cantinas emerged in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

What a great afternoon enjoying local drinks and learning more about Mexico's history. Fernando is an easy-going and knowledgeable guide. He shared his passion for local cantinas in Guadalajara. We enjoyed each place and the concersation along the way. We would definitely spend another day on this tour to visit different places

Fernando nos dio la tour de cantinas, fue muy interesante la historia que nos contó sobre ellas y su historia. Nos gusto mucho que abordamos diferentes temas sobre la gente en Guadalajara y sus diferencias con otras partes el país. La próxima vez que tengamos más tiempo vamos a tomar sus otras tours.

El tour está muy bien guiado por Fernando. De otra manera tal vez no hubiera ido a esas cantinas ni conocido toda la historia detrás. Vale mucho la pena la verdad, lo recomiendo!!!

Fernando was a great guide. He gave us history lessons, sightseeing advice and had great english conversation skills. He does a really good job getting people to understand the importance of traditional cantinas. He was even willing to walk us to our next destination after the tour.
Highly recommend

My wife and I visited Guadalajara in July 2019. We signed up for this tour as we usually try to take tours like this within the cities we visit.
Fernando, our guide, was great. For those who don't speak Spanish very well, have no fear! He was able to give us the tour in English.
We had a great time on this tour. Fernando gave us a history lesson, of not only the bars we visited, but also the city and of Mexico. This ended up being a highlight of our trip. We would have walked right by these establishments if not for taking this tour.
I'm kinda surprised that there aren't more reviews. I'm not sure that Mexico utilizes TA as much as we do in the states. But feel free to email and ask any questions.
