My family and I are taking a trip to Guadalajara have no idea where to stay what to do what airport anything would behelp full Thanks
what about the tequila tour the weather

We are looking for the bar Margaritavilla or if you could tell me where I can find the owner, We met him back in 2005 and he invited us to his bar and I am wondering if he might have another bar or if he is still around?

Is there a place, preferably in central Guadalajara, to purchase MIRO beachware? I have tried all sorts of searches for these items, both in general and for Guadalajara specifically, with no results. We have purchased this for my wife on several occasions along the Yucatan, but have not been back in a while and she would like more. We are planning on being in Guadlajara in August for a wedding and would appreciate some guidance. Thanks.

We're building a house in Mazatlan and will be in Guadalajara to do some shopping. Our time is limited so which of the street markets should we hit. Thanks

I understand they provide very quick FM-3 service in San Luis. Does anyone know who I should contact there for this service?

We would like to have a look at Bahia Kino on our way north from Guaymas.

Should we drive from Guaymas to Hermosillo on Highway 15, and then west on Highway 16 to Kino? I realize that this is the long route.

Or has anyone driven on on Highway 15 to Highway 24, northwest on 24, up to 16, and then west on to Kino? What is the condition of Highways 24 and 16?

Thanks for any information you can give us.

Are there any Spanish language classes in El Golfo de Sta Clara? I'll only be there a week but want to brush up. Thanks for any help.

I was enroute in Guadalajara Airport and saw some beautiful jewelry there. Is this made in Mexico and would anyone know where I could get one of their catalogues? Thank you for any help.

We will be in Guadalajara for only 2 days and 1 night midweek on Weds night and leaving Thursday afternoon and I don't see a lot of things going on there during those days. Could anyone recommed a good nightclub or maybe a comedy club during weds nights? Are there any Chareadas, mariachis or anything else of that sort or is everything pretty much just on the weekends? We will be there Dec 19th.

I have just been offered a term abroad position in Guadalajara, but it would probably involve staying in Zapopan. What is the approximate commute time from Zapopan to the center of Guadalajara? Is there regular public transport? Is life in Zapopan really all that different from Guadalajara?

Please don't delete this thread - a six month term abroad doesn't really count as relocation does it?

My best friend and I are thinking of a little road trip from Nuevo Mexico to the Sonora region. She wants to see Puerto Penasco, hang at a beach and just vegetate. I just want to wander along the shore, eat some good food, and perhaps see something cultural/historical. To keep things leisurely I don't THINK we want to go further south than Guyamas (sp?) but am a bit overwhelmed by our choices.

Any ideas? any particular VT pages I should peruse as we plan this trip?

*I'm soooo excited!!!*

I want to travel to Guaymas and am looking for a spanish language school to attend while there.

We will be living and working in Guaymas.Mexico as of August of this year and would like to find out about housing and medical care in that area. For instance where is the nearest American hospital. Would appreciate any info on these subjects.
Cheers M G

how far and how long does it take to travel to el golfo de santa clara from yuma az.

My husband and I are looking for the best routes to travel, both in ease of driving and interesting places for stretching our legs, eating, safe lodging, etc. We do not want to drive at night. Also wondering how much time we should allow to PV after crossing the border. Muchas gracias!

Hi I am considering taking spanish classes in Guadalajara...is guadalajara a safe place for a single women? Any recommendation on which school is the best for taking Spanish? Any advise would be appreciated...

I'm looking for a clean, quiet, reasonably priced place to stay. I don't care about night life, etc ... just a nice place to crash after enjoying the beach for the day. All suggestions will be appreciated!

I am going there April of next year, I have never been before, can someone give me directions from town to a nice place to tent camp on the beach? any places close to showers or a bathroom?
Thanks!

My family and I are going to Puerto Vallarta via Guadalajara. I am trying to find out the bus fare. Anyone know? We will be staying in the Historic part of Guadalajara. Is that far from the bus terminal? Thanks.

Going from Mesa,Az. to El Fuerte,Sinaloa to work with "Flyng Doctors" Nov.2 Going by via Hermosillo on "Crucero" bus .Need to know if any economical hotels located in area of bus terminal.Plz reply to Eskiko@webtv.net Thanks.Hank.

I'm planning a short trip to Northern Sonora (live in Central AZ) and plan to visit Magdalena and other Padre Kino mission towns. I don't have a lot of time, so I'm purposely limiting my trip instead of, say, going to Guaymas or Alamos or other points further south. I'm a young, single female w/ moderate Spanish-speaking abilities and need advice on places to stay and bus routes and any things to do advice. I'm not looking for nightlife or a busy schedule. I just need to get away, hang-out, and perhaps practice my Spanish.

I'm just a little curious as to why there seems to be 2 totally different but still kinda the same Puerto Peñasco Travel Guides here on VT?

It's kinda spooky, like being on the Twilight Zone...

Dudew..Dudew..Dudew..Dudew...Submitted for your approval; You are traveling in another dimention in time, in a Parallel Peñasco, known only as the "Peñasco Zone!"

Any insite would be welcomed,

Thanks,
