The Guadalajara Reporter

Thanks Sergio!

Dear Sir,

Recently we hired Sergio, who advertises frequently in The Reporter (as “Your Friend Sergio”), as a guide for our trip (eight of us) from Ajijic to Morelia and to the wintering place of the butterflies in Michoacan. He was excellent beyond words – as a driver, a guide, a historian, a travel agent, a concerned and knowledgeable person of great good cheer, perfect tact, and large resourcefulness. He is really good when confronted with the unexpected. When one of our party suffered a fall that looked as if it might be dangerous, Sergio stayed with her and her husband through the night in the emergency room, translating between the couple and various doctors and nurses, running errands as need arose, all the time with patience and friendliness. The next day he was of great help with a follow-up visit with a doctor and a visit to an optometrist while never neglecting his other charges, changing hotels for us, showing us the sights, recommending excellent places to eat. He was tireless, minutely attentive, and just plain fun to be with. He also knew when we might prefer our own company while always making himself easy to find. He was friendly and competent in dealing with people ranging from policeman to toll collectors.

All in all, we found a great deal to admire about Sergio as a guide and as a person, and wanted to share our opinion of him with your readers. We really don´t think we could have enjoyed this trip without him.
