We started La Perla Tours because we’ve been in your shoes—standing in the middle of a vibrant city, hoping for connection, only to leave with photos that felt emptier than the experience. We’re travelers first. After exploring dozens of countries and taking plenty of “just okay” tours, we realized the kind of travel we wanted didn’t really exist: immersive, human-centered, and built around real local life. So we created it.

Our home is Guadalajara, a city rich in history, culture, flavor, and soul. And we’ve spent years getting to know it—not just the famous spots, but the hidden corners where the stories really live. We know the chefs, the artists, the shopkeepers. We speak the language. We know the neighborhoods. And we know that travel means so much more when you’re not just observing culture, but actually feeling like part of it.

This isn’t a job—it’s a calling. We believe travel should be a doorway, not a checklist. Our tours are designed to help you step through that door, connect deeply, and return home with something far more meaningful than souvenirs. You’ll walk away with unforgettable stories, new perspectives, and a sense that you didn’t just see Guadalajara—you knew it.

And we’re just getting started. As more travelers search for something real, something that can’t be found in a guidebook, we’ll keep building those bridges—between visitors and locals, between past and present, between traveler and experience.
