Things to Do in Guadalajara
There are so many things to do in Guadalajara that you could enjoy weeks of fun here! Join Guadalajara Free Walking Tours and spend an afternoon at Mariachi Square discovering the sounds and style of the Mariachi musical culture. The Mercado Libertad - San Juan de Dios is one of the largest and busiest markets you can find in all of Mexico. And it is the perfect place to try 'birria' and 'tortas ahogadas', the two iconic dishes of Guadalajara. In addition, the city of Tequila, birthplace of the homonymous drink, is only 43 miles (69 km) from Guadalajara. Most tourists drive there or hire day-tours to see the agave plantations, learn about the tequila making process, and try some varieties!
