Things To Do
Guadalajara city tour
Located in Plaza de Armas. The Plaza de Armas is the main square of Guadalajara and is located directly in the city's historic center. The square has vendors that offer a variety of tourists packages or simple city tours taken by double decker buses. The tours vary in time from 1 hour/2 hours/half day/full day tours (the longer tours take you to Tequila or nearby towns to explore)/ Luis & I took an approximately 1 hour tour of the city at approximately $5US/each (I can't remember perfectly but it was very cost-effective) which was great to tour the city's sights!
Santo Coyote
Amazing & unique atmosphere for a romantic dinner experience filled with live mariachi music an at-table salsa making by the server. There is so much to see as the atmosphere has little ponds, intricate art & is heavily gardened.
Tlaquepaque
Tlaquepaque is a well known city in Jalisco that is a short drive from the center of Guadalajara. Tlaquepaque's center is lined with a street solely for foot traffic to enjoy the festive outdoor region filled with delicious mix of Mexican cuisines. The area is filled with beautiful sculptures, art & music.
MUSA Museum of the Arts University of Guadalajara
Free museum of Mexican art & culture - donations welcomed. Approx 5 minute walk from the ceremony church. Short drive to Karne Garibaldi - well known restaurant for their "record fastest service" YET there is usually a wait outside (ironic)
