"Don’t remind the country’s rabid soccer fans, but Mexico ’s official national sport is charreria , a Western-style riding and roping that’s best seen in Guadalajara . Visit in September, when the National Charro Championship draws competitors from all over the world, or simply head to one of the city’s lienzos (arenas) to take in some fancy rodeo skills. One of Guadalajara’s most popular charreria venues is Lienzo Charros de Jalisco, where men, women, and children compete for bragging rights while mariachis get the audience going with their lively music. Get your ticket and join people of all ages and backgrounds for an afternoon of impressive sportsmanship."
The tour and history is amazing. Jorge is the best tour guide! Explains everything in english and spanish. Kid friendly also. My boys had a great time and wanted to go back for more. Price is very well worth it!

We enjoyed watching the charros perform for a few hours on Sunday. A very cultural event and for us, a must do when in Guadalajara.

We had 3 hours with Jorge taking us through the history, skills and folklore of the Charros and Escaramuza; it included a practical demonstration of lasooing and horse riding topped off with tequila and live serenade. It was a great 3 hours and Jorge was terrific as the “tour” guide.

Amazing experience to watch Charros in Guadalajara! Shows are on Sundays, starts around noon, our tickets were 60pesos each. You can buy on the day, from the little unmarked hole in the wall just outside the arena. They sell cerveza michelada and snacks during. What a great experience!!

Visited yesterday with my wife, I have to say we had one of the best days we've had in many years of travelling the World.
So much fun, so infomative and so professional, we are both still smiling now.
Dont question, just book it

Must see while in Guadalajara. Something happens most Sundays. Booking a tour is worthwhile to understand the history. I'm going back.
