But you'll join one of our hosts to discover the historic wonders of the city. Visit sacred historic sites, colonial neighborhoods and an ancient barrio, among other ancient relics.

Like the people who travel with us, they have different backgrounds and interests – but they’re all so passionate about the place they call home, they choose to spend their free time sharing it with the like-minded travelers matched to them.
