Hola Jorge!

I was on the Tlaquepaque tour on the Mexican holiday where you had shopkeepers open up for us. Muchas Gracias!

I am writing a story about Guadalajara and want to mention you and the company you work for. Could you provide that information?

Also, I would like to get a couple of quotes from you for the story. I would need a couple of sentences per quote:

1) …

If there is any way you could respond to me by the end of the day on Friday, I can incorporate your information into the story.

I really enjoyed the tour and want to make certain to help you get more business. I appreciate your help!

Gracias,

Last package for this time.

Dear Dawna:

Here I send you this last group of pictures…

All the photos are not edited, they are just as they came out from the camera, so you may edit as you need…

The one that says Turquía is also my son, when he used to travel on my shoulders!…

Now he is the photographer that has surpassed the teachers, at that time it was Norma or me.

This group was also to share with you, some of our family trips. I hope you like them.

Have a nice weekend.

Bonjour,

Vous souvenez vous de nous.

Nous avons avec vous visité Guadalajara le samedi 28 mars 2009.

Nous étions 3, avec mon fils Jérôme et ma femme (en fauteuil).

Nous conservons un bon souvenir de vous et de votre passion que vous aviez à nous faire découvrir votre ville.

Salutations

Je voulais aussi, vous raconter, que la visite que j’ai faite avec vous, a été, pour moi, l’expérience las plus belle que j’ai eu, comme guide de touristes. A tel point, que j’ai gardé le billet de 50 E, comme souvenir, et j’allais tenter de le conserver (tant qu’il n’était pas urgent économiquement), dans une petite collection de pièces de monnaie que j’ai continué d’après une qu’avait mon Père, et lui d’après celle du grand Père, et que nous avions continuée, avec celles que l’on a conservées lors de nos voyages en Europe…

Maintenant, je vais le changer, soit pour aider un copain Architect qui a eu un accident, soit pour les Jens d’Haïti, ou aujourd’hui pour le Chile, …

Vous m’avais dit que vous étiez Catholiques, mais non plus pratiquants…

Bon, je dois vous dire que le Christ disait que ce n’est pas ce lui qui dit “Seigneur, Seigneur… qui va se sauver, mais ce lui qui fait la Volonté de Son Père…” Et son plus grand commandement, était toujours “l’amour des uns vers les autres…”

Et vous avez été pour moi, un exemple d’amour, d’union familiale, respect, compréhension, charme, délicatesse, etc. et en même temps, de courage pour la vie et de gout pour le tourisme, malgré les difficultés.

Á tel point, que je me suis permis de citer cette expérience de votre visite, lors de nos réunions de cours de formation continue pour les guides de touristes. Bien sûre, j’avais raconté ce ci à ma femme et à mon fis Jorge, dés que je suis rentré chez nous, ce jour la.

Jorge Bonjour,

Nous vous souhaitons une bonne et heureuse année 2011.

Mon fils Jérôme travaille toujours chez une banque de crédits, il est toujours à la recherche d’une girl friend (peut-être) …

Ma fille travaille en Suisse.

La famille sera réunie le 15 et 16 janvier 2011 (y compris ma fille) pour célébrer les 87 ans de ma mère.

Mon frère a eu un grave problème de santé – une amplification de sa maladie (Parkinson, tu connais?)- j’espère que cela va s’améliorer ou se stabiliser.

J’espère que vous avez passé une bonne soirée de Noël en famille.

Que faites-vous pour le 31 décembre?

Nous resterons tous les deux à la maison pour ce 31 décembre, nous voulons nous reposer un peu…, le 2 janvier nous allons célébrer l’anniversaire de ma femme Jacqueline.

Indeed, I had a great time reliving my life there 50 years ago. It was magical.  Yes, we did fill the days with lots of experiences.

I did see the peacock dollar Carl made you. I made sure he saw it as well and he was very touched that you included it.

Of course, we’d love to come again and would be delighted to see you again as well.

Take care of yourself, be well and happy.

Dear Jorge,

First of all, I would like to say thank you for giving me the hat band which I remember is a favorite of the Minister. You gave him yours which reflects the Mexican flag that made him very pleased indeed. Now I have to get a nice hat to match so that I can tie the one you gave me. Hope that you and family are doing fine there. Am glad that you met my Deputy Mr Azham whom you showed him the places you took the Minister last time. Anyway, I hope that you will have a good week ahead and continue to be passionate of your job.

Thank you,

We had a wonderful experience in Guadalajara, in substantial part due to Jorge Curiel Flores, who was our private ‘tour’ guide. Apart from being an expert on the local architecture and points of interest, he is a font of information about the history, culture, politics and economy of Guadalajara – really glad we located him!
And he’s even helping us ship two beautiful ceramic works back to the US!

Bonjour Monsieur Jorge,

C’est Lise B…, qui veut remercier le merveilleux guide que vous êtes, votre gentillesse et votre galanterie

Fait de vous un vrai gentilhomme.

J’ai appris beaucoup avec toutes vos explications sur l’architecture et l’histoire des belles maisons  de

Guadalajara.

Au Musée  Régional  de Guadalajara, les détails de la fresque du plafond, les  explications du fonctionnement du

cadran solaire, etc. etc.

Les visites aux distilleries d’Amatitan et de Tequila.

1: La Puerta  De Agave

Nous avons mangé sur la terrasse, la vue des montagnes était de toutes beautés.

2e :  Tres Mujeres, avec son vieux four et ses champs d’agaves à perte de vue. Vous m’avez montré le chemin

que les agaves prenaient avant de devenir cette boisson délicieuse.

La visite de la cave ((El Trésor de Las Tres  Mujères )),

la chapelle avec ses bancs construits avec de  vieux barils, très original,

le jeune garçon qui a gravé les verres  pour moi. Petit souvenir pour mon fils et sa compagne, ils ont bien aimé!

3:   Villa De Cuerambaro,  Amatitan, Jalisco.

Une belle bâtisse faite de briques rouges avec le plafond en coupole très impressionnant ce travail de maçon.

Dans la cour un arbre immense!  Le cri d’un paon  nous a attiré vers lui. Qu’il était  beau !

La vieille voiture rouge et or et le vieux camion vert.

La fausse avec sa grosse roue de pierre  qui faisait le travail avant la machinerie.

Les champs d’agaves,  les palmiers et le volcan.

À l’intérieur nous sommes montés voire les cuves. J’ai  remarqué les quantités  que pouvaient  contenir

ces grosses cuves, une était marqué, 42, 239LT,  l’autre avait 20,500LT.

Nous avons regardé une vidéo qui racontait l’histoire  de ((La Villa De Carambar)).

On a vu les décorations  qu’ils ont  reçues pour la qualité de leur  boisson.

De retour à Guadalajara nous avons remarqué les sculptures des chevaux sauvages ils sont très beaux, on les

croirait vivants tellement l’œuvre est parfaite.

Je vous dis au revoir et merci pour ces deux jours inoubliables.

Veillez agréer Monsieur l’expression de  mon sentiment reconnaissant.

Si vous le désirez, je peux vous faire parvenir l’ensemble des photos, par Wetransfer. Le dossier aura un poids de  70Mb.

Buenos días, Jorge,

El tour que nos diste de Tequila y sus alrededores fue excelente.  Aprendimos cantidades de la destilación del tequila, y a la vez nos divertimos muchísimo.  Nos fascinó la profundidad de tus conocimientos así como la claridad de tus explicaciones.

Y qué extraordinaria coincidencia de que llegara el grupo de músicos a cantarnos en “La Capilla”.

Gracias también por las direcciones de cómo salir de Guadalajara para viajar a Michoacán. Aunque si hubo algo de tráfico a la salida, llegamos 4 horas más tarde a Pátzcuaro sin problemas.

Avísanos cuando podamos tener acceso al blog.

Another trip to Guadalajara

Sr. Flores,

You were a guide for us last year and took us both to Tequila and Guachimontones in one day. We had a blast. We really enjoyed your commentary.

We are returning this year and bringing 4 more friends. We would like to hire someone who can take us to Tonalá for glass, ceramics and furniture. Is this something you can do for us?

We may also want to go to Tequila, but need to figure that out later. We will let you know on that one.

… So, we would like to book a trip to Tonalá for Friday or Saturday, whatever day you think is best for shopping. We will need a large van for 6 people and purchases.

Thanks so much.

Also, I know when we were there last year, your mom was not well. I hope she is better.

I’m very glad you have good memories of your trip.

I’m ready to take care of you and your friends again. I have already separated those dates for you. Since going to pick you up at the airport.

For the car there is not any problem we will have whatever you need.

So, feel confident, I’m taking care of you since now.

The security at the airport took away our larger glass items that we packed. This has never happened before. We are very upset. We took the same plates last year and had no problem. Is there anyway you could get us replacements from that store? And ship to us? Please let me know. If yes, we will tell you which ones. And we will get more than two. We also bought a silver bowl made from glass. I can send a picture of it.

Anyway you can tell the tourist department that this is not fair.

Also, let us know status on shipping the mushrooms.

Thanks again for the great tours.

Dear Jorge,

I appreciate all you are doing but I have no receipts, everything was paid for in pesos. I do not remember the name of the store in Tlaquepaque …

You are very kind and if the pieces cost more, I would gladly send the letters requested, …

You are the best travel guide and so conscientious. Thank you so much.

Thank you very much. So, I will send you a …

For the insurance: yes, the budget includes an insurance for total losses. And the lady says there should not be possibility of physical damage, because it will be so perfectly packed. I know she is right, we have sent big, 3 feet high, “Petatillo Pottery” pieces, (as the ones we saw in the workshop, do you remember?), much more delicate, and they arrived in perfect conditions.

I have insisted to be very careful.

She is going to give me some unwrapping instructions for you.

For the dimensions and weight of the package, I will inform you as soon as possible.

I’ll keep in touch with you.

We are trying to access your website but it says “suspended”. Do you have a new website? How can we access the pictures you took of us on vacation?

Also, any idea of how long it will take the mushrooms to arrive?

Thanks again for all your help and a fun vacation.

Re: your website

Qué tal, Virginia:

I hope you had a very nice Mother’s Day. And the best wishes for the mothers of the team.

The exportation company is already paid, they are doing the official proceedings for the delivery of the merchandise. Including the required fumigation.

The mushrooms should arrive in between 2 or 3 weeks. May be even a little less, but they don’t want to offer more, just in case a delay in the border, or whatever.

About our website, we have been attacked by a hacker some months ago, they spoiled our place, and more than 3 years of work.

We tried to recover it, but it was impossible, google closed it definitely.

We already opened a new one, but with the work, home, and my mother’s health, I haven’t had the chance to improve it. I promise you to do an extra effort, so to show you the pictures.

I will keep you posted.

Congratulations again.

Jorge.

Mushrooms news

Dear Virginia, Randy and friends:

I have the measurements of the two boxes containing the mushrooms:

The little one is 40 x 48 x 48 inches and weighs 110 pounds

The big one is 40 x 48 x 88 inches and weighs 220 pounds

I received an e-mail last week, on the 24rd from the shipping and export company, that I copy the text in here:

“Very respectable client and friend

This message is to inform you that due to this weekend tornado in Texas, Laredo customs are close to the importations and exportations.

Because of this situation customs are still holding clearances and therefore will delay our deliveries at final destination

We are very sorry for this situation unfortunately it remains out of our hands

We will keep you posted

Best regards.”

As yesterday it was day off in the US, we didn’t have more news. They were moving to Columbia bridge the perishable and most urgent merchandises. But it was supposed to re normalize the flow of merchandise by this week.

As soon as I have any news, I will let you know.

By the way, also 10 days ago, my mother had a new head stroke. She was very weak, and we took her to the hospital. The doctors say it was in the same area than the first big one, and affected the same functions, speaking and walking. But they say, thanks to the medicines she is taking, it wasn’t as bad as the first. She left the hospital Tuesday, may 23rd and she is pretty recovered. Last Sunday she even watched a film with us in the TV.

Let’s pray for her.

Best regards, we will keep in touch.

Jorge.

I sent you an email that we received them! They are in my garage waiting until our contractor can unpack. He has been busy selling his house. So hard to wait to see them! As soon as they are unpacked, I will send picture.

Thanks for checking up!

So weird. I did not email all your various emails but glad you followed up! We will definitely contact you when we come back to Guadalajara! And next time we will just ship everything back through your great shipper!

¡¡Hola Jorge, buenas tardes!!

Primero que nada, quiero agradecerte y pedirte que extiendas este agradecimiento …, ya que pasamos un día muy enriquecedor y agradable conociendo la Hacienda … y el pueblo de Tequila…

Abusando de tu amabilidad y aprovechando el correo, pido de favor tu apoyo para pedirte si sería posible que me enviaras por este medio algunas de las fotografías que nos tomaste tanto en el Mirador como en la Hacienda.

Esto debido a que el lunes tengo que entregar el Reporte de nuestro Viaje de Integración.

¿Me puedes ayudar…?

Quedo a la espera de tu amable respuesta.

Entonces ahora tenemos al grupo de Jamaica en INGLÉS del 4 al 8 de abril, supongo misma mecánica, pero una pregunta:

Tú me describes el programa para el 4, 6 y 7 de abril, pero: ¿Qué vamos a hacer el viernes 5, nos vamos a ir a Chapala a festejar mi cumpleaños? No se me haría mala idea, tanto para ellos, como para Ustedes y para mí… Al cabo, como yo no tomo, seguimos trabajando el sábado 6… Jajaja…

Y después tendríamos al grupo … en español, el … de abril, ¿cierto?

Un abrazo para las tres,

Your in-depth knowledge and love for the city is easily seen when you talk about it. We told everyone up here in the states that the main reason we had such a great time in Guadalajara is because of your tour and style of guiding visitors throughout the city…

[1/5 11:41] Michael: You made it so enjoyable that we will look you up again when we visit again so we can explore more of your beautiful city. If you ever make your way up to Arizona or Nogales, Sonora, look us up and we will visit with each other.

[1/5 11:45] Michael: Later today, I will add Briana to this group so she can pass you all the photos because most were taken on her phone. thank you again Jorge! and by the way, we enjoyed our guide for Guanajuato and SMA, but your knowledge and love for what you are showing and teaching far exceeded the other tour in the other cities.  thanks!

An Absolutely AMAZING Private Tour!!!!!

Reviewed May 7, 2019

1 person found this review helpful

My husband and I decided at the last minute to make a trip to central Mexico – something he’s wanted to do for a long time, but neither of us speaks Spanish and we were a bit uncomfortable about making this trip solo.  It was also the first time we used a tour guide for an entire trip. THE BEST THING WE EVER DID WAS SIGN UP FOR  9 PRIVATE TOUR DAYS WITH JORGE. The service and the expertise were absolutely amazing from the minute we hit the ground in Guadalajara to the moment we were deposited at our exit hotel.  And, we felt safe and supported throughout our travels.

The level of knowledge about the history, culture, architecture, geography and art blew us away!  We spent our days engrossed in the beauty of the area and our evenings discussing; what we’d learned. Our days were tailored to our needs and interest and flexible enough to allow us to make changes on the fly. Our car was comfortable, clean (every day) and the door opened for us at every stop. We went to places off the beaten path and met some extraordinary artisans. We even had a chance to calmly discuss the current socio-political situation in both of our countries and gain valuable insight.

The only downside to our trip due to no fault of Jorge’s, is that we both got sick due to our own carelessness… don’t have ice in your beverages even if you’re in a high end hotel!  That being said, we were able to adjust our schedule without any hesitation to deal with the stomach issues.

The icing on the cake was returning home and having a discussion with a family of 4 that went to the same area the following week. They were amazed at how much we did and saw – triple their schedule! I would most definitely recommend Jorge and thank him for arranging such a wonderful trip for us. What a wonderful way to begin our 40th anniversary travels. 🙂

This is part of a private message with them: … Well, the good thing is that now you are recovered. I repeat, I am so sorry for that. And I hope you are getting back to normality. On the other side, I really appreciate your review in tour HQ, I am sure it will be very helpful. Thank you very much.

… …you will have the opportunity to see lots of nice things. Including my architect work, … For retirement, think about Chapala Lake Side, the biggest lake in Mexico, … with the best climate in the word. Just one hour away, south from Guadalajara, half an hour after the airport (look for it in the map); better known by snowbirds and retirement people from USA and Canada, as “Ajijic”, one of the lake side towns, where they began to get established, and now they are spread all around the lake. Get a look on internet… I will show you … a nice residence I did for an American couple in retirement, for whom I had already done a remodelation of another house here in Guadalajara. And of course, it is much cheaper than in the states. Well, … I hope you both are now in “plain shape”, as we say in Spanish, I don’t know if it has any sense in English… “in full form”, according to Google Translator. I send you my best regards, and a big Hugh.

Sincerely Jorge.
