Hi ! I am Fernanda from southern Mexico. I traveled a lot in Central America and I found my happy place in Antigua Guatemala. I always have been passionated by the Mayan culture. I decided to share my passion with travelers, organizing since 7 years bespoke travel in Guatemala. My favorite place is Lake Atitlan where you can hike and navigate to discover small mayan villages, their colored markets and traditions. I am also a salsa dancer, a local food addict and I love adventure.

Guatemala is called “the Heart of the Mayan World”: you will find here some iconic archeological sites such as Tikal. I also love to recommend off the beaten tracks mayan sites, accessible by boat or by foot.

I’m Mexican, born in Mexico City, but I spent my childhood in Cancún, where weekends meant enjoying those breathtaking beaches with their crystal-clear turquoise waters. I’ve traveled through many corners of Mexico—from the lush landscapes of the Huasteca Potosina to the vibrant traditions of Oaxaca, and to several of the charming pueblos mágicos that dot the country.  Mexico is a land bursting with flavor, color, and warmth.  I would love to share its magic and culture with you, helping you plan your next unforgettable adventure.
