Half a day to visit a 5M metropoli like GDL sounds very little. There are so many neighborhoods you missed and might want to check out on your next visit, such as Chapu, Americana, Chapalita and many more. Also, Jalisco stadium hosting Atlas is a much more authentic experience than Chivas Akron. Tonala, Tapalpa, Chapala??
Definitely, we wish we had *more* time. We visited quite a few other places in the Jalisco State but we wish we had spent more time in GDL as it is huge and with lots of things to do. We're dying to be back but we hope to visit there soon 🙏❤️🫶. Thanks for watching and for your comment 🙏
En realidad es porque en Guadalajara no se promocionan muchas cosas, pero hay muchísimas expresiones culturales, museos, zonas con diferentes ambientes como el centro de Guadalajara, centro de Zapopan, colonia chapalita, colonia americana, andares, centro de Tlaquepaque. Definitivamente 4 o 5 noches en Guadalajara no son suficientes.
I have been to both cities and I find CDMx more interesting and diverse. There is much to see and do in CDMX and every day there is something new to see and visit. Guadalajara is a beautiful city but after a few days, you would feel like there is not more to see or do. To compare CDMX you would need to find another world city
We *totally agree* with you with your comparison between CDMX and GDL. We just wanted to make this video as these have been the 2 biggest cities WE have visited so far in Mexico. Thank you for watching and leaving your insight José 🙏🫶
No hay punto de comparación con casi ninguna otra ciudad no solo de México, sino de Latinoamérica. De entrada CDMX tiene 5 veces más población que GDL, además de que es capital y cuenta con historia colonial y precolombina. Aún así en GDL hay Muchísimo que hacer, creo que te faltó asesoría para obtener más entretenimiento. GDL es capital cultural de México, solo hay que saber en dónde buscar, pues no todo está en el Centro Histórico.
Thank you so much guys, that was the sweetest comment to read 🤗🤗 We hope this video inspires more people to travel to GDL because it's so underrated 🤩🇲🇽 Sending all for of you a big virtual hug 🤗🤗
*Awww* thank you, amigo. Yes, we're so blessed to live here and we sometimes take it for granted. Awesome just a few months away, you must be excited. Thank you again for watching our video and commenting. We are now working on some more content on this region 🫶😊
Awww thank you Laura and Michael 🙏. It's always lovely reading your sweet comments 🫶. We hope you guys are doing amazing. We send you a big big hug from PDC 🌴 🇲🇽
Very lovely video as always. Totally enjoyed your points of view about these two cities. I’ve been to MX city a few times but never to GDL because I had heard there’s only a couple of things to do. Thanks for introducing me to some of the options there. I’d sure like to see a deep dive into Puerto Vallarta where you guys could possibly stay at least a month before reporting back to us. Simone, your Spanish is awesome girl! Thanks for the update and yes guys, do some self care.
*Hola Ruben* 👋👋 Awww, thank you so much. Yes, we thought this could be a great video idea for travelers who haven't decided which of the cities suits the best of their needs. Yes, PV is on our bucket list and we might also head to Nayarit for its close proximity. Simone says *_Gracias_* , and I am proud to see her progress especially when she speaks with my mom 🤭. Thank you, Ruben, and love reading your comment as always 🫶❤️
Excellent video! My husband and me love big cities! We visited Mexico City April 2023 and it was a blast. So much to do in CDMX. Looking forward to visiting Guadalajara April 2024. And yes, planning to see Chivas futbol game while there. Keep up the great video's.
Hola Mary 🤗🤗 We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed CDMX - it is possibly one of the most interesting and diverse cities in Latin-America 🙏 And the food is just incredible too 🥲🇲🇽 Oh my gosh; GDL is amazing and still pretty unknown to tourists, so I'm sure you'll enjoy it! We'd definitely recommend checking-out El Pilon de los Arreros and trying the sopa de tortilla - absolutely amazing! 🤭👏 Hahaha, Geovanny was very happy to hear that you'll be supporting las Chivas 😅🫶🇲🇽
*Hola Glenn* 👋👋 Thank you so much 🙏. Yes, we didn't realize how important is also have; good mental and physical health to continue with the videos 🤭. Thank you so much for watching and leaving your comment, we really appreciate it 🙏❤️
*Hola Dennis* 🫶 Nice reading your comment ❤️. Thank you so much for watching and commenting we are happy you enjoyed our video. Sending all the great vibes from PDC Mexico 🇲🇽🌴
*Letitia* amiga, thank you so much, we're happy you found this video very informative. Looking forward to meeting you soon, and we hope you're doing better now 🫶🤗
Hey Clay 🤗🤗 Awesome - Guadalajara is such a vibrant city 🙌 We didn't get to it unfortunately, but we did see it while we were planning our trip and it seems like on of the safest/most upscale places to stay in GDL 🇲🇽🫶 We hope you have a wonderful trip 🇲🇽
Aw, thank you so much *Talisha*, we hope you got valuable information from our video, and hope it helps if you're planning to travel to Mexico City or Guadalajara or both 🤭🤩. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤗🫶
El punto es que en CDMX consideraron algunas zonas como centro histórico pero que no son precisamente el Centro Histórico. Una cosa es tener Historia y otra cosa es que esto se encuentre en el Centro Histórico. Ejemplo La Colonia Roma o Polanco, el Monumento a la Revolución y el Ángel de la Independencia. En dado caso ustedes debieron haber caminado en GDL hacia la Colonia Americana y la Minerva y considerarlo también como parte del "Centro Histórico", cosa que no sería correcto. El Centro H. De GDL es demasiado grande si se toma como oficialmente es, incluyendo el Mercado San Juan de Dios, la Univ de Guadalajara, Paseo Alcalde, Aránzazu y los dos templos etc. Aún asi, la CDMX es enorme (5 veces más grande que GDL); además de que ahí es donde nació México, por lo que tiene mucha más historia que cualquier otra ciudad, por lo que en cuanto a eso no hay punto de comparación con ninguna otra ciudad. Pero Proporcionalmente al tamaño Guadalajara es muy atractiva y competitiva tomando en cuenta que su historia inicia a partir de la Colonia Española (CDMX tiene hiatoria prehispánica y Colonial). CDMX es alucinante, pero GDL también lo es en su debida proporción.
Definitivamente deberíamos haber puesto más horas en nuestro viaje pero lo consideraremos para nuestro próximo tour en Jalisco 🙏🏼🤩. Gracias por tu comentario y por ver nuestro video 🙏🏼🙏🏼
When we were in Mexico City in September it was very good weather for us. The temperature a bit down for what we are used to. But September is a great month for all of the street decorations 🇲🇽🪅
Hi guys. Love your content. We booked 7 weeks for 2024 In Jan to March. We’re worried about the sargassum situation in playa del carmen. Are there any beaches where the water is clean and where you would swim. Or is the entire coast line covered? Thanks.
*Hola Tony* 👋👋 Awwww, thank you so much for supporting our content. That's amazing you must be so excited about your trip. We totally understand the sargassum situation, however, this is unpredictable and can change overnight. You will be staying for 7 weeks in the worst-case scenario that Sargassum is bad, Isla Mujeres is always a great spot, as they barely get affected by this algae. We recommend following the Sargassum Group on Facebook where locals/tourists share daily updates: facebook.com/groups/414023702449092 Thank you once again, and we hope this info helps you a lot 🙏🫶
I think those cobblestone streets and sidewalks are a bit of a challenge for some people, and really a problem when wet. How is the air pollution? I've heard it's very bad in Mexico City.
They probably are! As long as you keep in mind that Mexico is still a developing county, your trip here will be a ton of fun 🫶🇲🇽 However, having the expectation the Mexico should adapt to 'first world' standards is a sure fire way to have a miserable time over here 🫢
@@ForTheRoadTravels I don't think it's an issue for adaptation, just that people who have any walking issues should not go walking in Ajijic or wherever there are cobblestone streets and broken sidewalks. I wonder sometimes how emergency vehicles can get through the narrow streets....
Guadalajara has also a lot of this to do and see, you can live there for years and not know all the city, and a part of that has a better life quality than CDMX.
Hola *amig@* 🙌 Thank you for your comment, we can imagine, GDL is huge, we actually like it a lot but we didn't have enough time to explore the city as travelled to the other little towns in Jalisco! But we are planning to get back soon and have another perspective of the city! Thanks for watching 🫶🙏🙌
What makes you say that Mexico City is better than GDL? Is there something in particular you like the most? 🤭🫶. Thank you for watching and commenting Ernie 🙏🏼
We would say La Estancia, Zapopan and Tlaquepaque being this last one in the outskirts of GDL, but similar vibes to Polanco/Roma Norte at least what we think about it 🙏🏼 thanks for watching and commenting
0:02 Lately? Yeah, if lately means the year 1325 when it was founded by the Mexica. 5:28 Juárez, Roma Norte, Roma, Roma Sur, Condesa, Hipodromo, Hipodromo Condesa, Cuahtemoc.
*Hola amig@* 👋👋 Nowadays with the power of Google Translate, you could easily communicate with everyone, locals always love and appreciate the effort you do of speaking at least the basic of Spanish.
GDL airport has no public transportation, you’re not the only one found that. I did my extensive research, there’s only one Chapala bus to city centro Guadalajara and it happens to have a stop near GDL airport but that would need you to walk a long way to get highway side to that stop. What a pity the 2nd largest city metro of Mexico has no public transportation connection to airport. Then everyone is forced to call a taxi or Uber. and Uber can’t get inside to pick up, so you also have to walk a little bit to outside area to get Uber. If traveling in a small group of 2 or 3 persons, take a Taxi or Uber is worthy but if traveling as single person with 1 bag very light packing, I’d always like to find public transportation first, if anyone knows better way to get a bus from GDL to city centro, please tell.
and I travelled to a few other Mexico places as well, smaller airports like Cancun, Cabo, PV all are very hostile to Uber, and has none in public transportation. Everyone at airport is forced to take high cost Taxi.
Hola, thank you for watching and commenting. We actually noticed buses from the Airport in GLD that says "Aeropuerto" on the lateral sides of the bus. We took Uber because we went straight to Ajijc. Nevertheless, if you are travelling with lots of luggage this can be an inconvenience. The best option will be Uber but this can be a bit pricey if you are on a budget.
That's because the Guadalajara airport is outside of the city, and the Mexico city airport is within the city, but now the Guadalajara airport is in a big remodelation and big changes that the Jalisco government is going to to build a BTR to the airport that have to be ready for the 2026 soccer world cup, and maybe mexico city is better to visit but Guadalajara is better to live in.
@@TheGdlvegas Good to know that, do you mean the current 3 metro lines will extend to GDL airport? that would be very nice! I’ll definitely like to visit again
Dear *Dovy,* thank you. On the bottom right corner, there is an "engine" icon, when you click it you will see the option of *_Playback Speed_* , where you can slow down the pace of the video 😉
I love cdmx, but you guys didn't really got to see more of Guadalajara seems like to make it sound like you only need 2 days. You didn't even walked the whole historic center. Plus you have Tlaquepaque, Tonala, Chapalita, Americana (the coolest neighborhood in the world in 2022), Providencia, Barranca de Huentitan, the Zoo which is the best and largest zoo in Latin America, etc. So no sure how did you do Guadalajara! 😉✌
Hey Jose 🤗 We mentioned in the video that we made a dedicated guide on GDL, so if you check that out, you'll see that we covered a ton of stuff in and around GDL 🙌 I'm sure the zoo if fantastic, but we don't support zoos 😊 Thanks for watching 🤗🇲🇽
@@ForTheRoadTravels i understand that you don't support zoos, but not everything is bad about them! I mentioned it because it's more than just a zoo which makes it a great place. No trying to start a debate, and I based my opinion on your video and comments I read. It's like saying I don't like museums so there is no much for me.. or I don't like libraries...etc... I guess just the way it was presented made it look like the only thing going on is the historic center plazas around the cathedral. But I'll check you guide later. Feliz fin de semana✌
