All about Guadalajara
When to visit
Although the city sees warm temperatures all year round, there is something special about visiting during the fall. With an average high of 80°F (27°C), the weather has cooled down a bit from the heat of summer, but it’s still warm enough to enjoy the outdoor markets and street vendors. The city also comes alive with festivals and cultural events during this time, such as the International Mariachi Festival and Day of the Dead. It’s also less crowded during the fall than from December through February, when crowds flock to the city over the holidays and prices skyrocket.
Getting around
The city is an expansive sprawl with many transport options. For a budget-friendly option, the local Macrobús is the best way to get around. These buses run all around the city and stop at many key attractions. However, expect cramped conditions as they are the main form of local transportation. A more efficient option is to grab a taxi from the street; however, it’s best to agree on a price before jumping in as prices can vary wildly.
Traveler tips
The delicious food culture is quite unique, with many dishes only found in the city and the states of Jalisco. Be sure to try the local dish of birria, a savory stew made with goat meat that is a well-known Jalisco favorite. Another classic Guadalajara food you cannot miss is the torta ahogada, which translates to “drowned sandwich” in Spanish due to it being coated in a red chili pepper sauce. These can be found at virtually all street stalls and local eateries.
