On arrival
Please meet me right by the San Miguel Fountain in the center of the Zócalo. You will easily spot me: I will be dressed in formal classic attire, wearing a vintage hat (Panama or Bowler), and carrying a small speaker playing traditional Mexican music. Please arrive 10 minutes before our 10:00 AM start time so we can begin our experience promptly.
Things to note
Puebla's morning weather is beautiful but can get quite sunny. I highly recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes, sunglasses, a hat, and bringing a bottle of water.
Please note: While I am a certified medical doctor and ensure a safe environment for any basic first-aid situation, this is strictly a cultural walking tour. No medical advice or consultations will be provided during the experience.
