CaminaGDL is a tour and corporate events company based in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. Operating under the web domain caminamexico.com, the brand focuses on immersive, locally guided experiences that showcase the culture, architecture, gastronomy, folklore, and art of Guadalajara and the wider state of Jalisco. Its product line includes a Guadalajara Walking Tour of the historic downtown, a Tlaquepaque "magical town" excursion, a Mexican pubs and fiesta night, an architecture and beer route, a Lucha Libre wrestling experience, and a full-day Tequila experience. Prices listed on the official site range from about US$19 for the downtown walking tour to about US$183 for the Tequila Full Experience. The company was founded by Valeria, who serves as CEO and is described on the official About Us page as passionate about her city and country. The project began in June 2018 after what the company describes as many years of dreaming. Its guides include local and adopted Tapatíos — people who have made Guadalajara their home — such as Nayeli, Georgia (originally from London), and Alexandra (a Canadian art historian and art consultant). The brand positions itself as welcoming to visitors of any language, age, preference, or disability, and emphasizes walking "like a local" and connecting with local people. CaminaGDL markets itself primarily through its own website, social media channels including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and WhatsApp, and review platforms such as Tripadvisor. The company also handles corporate events alongside its public tour offerings. Its headquarters and operational base are in Guadalajara, and its tours concentrate on Guadalajara, Tlaquepaque, and Tequila, Jalisco. As a privately held, founder-led business, it does not disclose financial or ownership details publicly.

CaminaGDL was founded by Valeria, who serves as CEO and describes herself as passionate about Guadalajara and Mexico. According to the company's About Us page, the project began with the dream of sharing more of the city with visitors, reconnecting lifelong residents with its streets, and inspiring people from around the world to discover Guadalajara. After many years of planning, the company began providing experiences in June 2018. From its base in Guadalajara, Jalisco, CaminaGDL built a portfolio of walking and themed tours centered on the city's historic downtown and surrounding areas. Its early and continuing offerings include a Guadalajara Walking Tour of the downtown, a Tlaquepaque "magical town" excursion, a Mexican pubs and fiesta night, an architecture and beer route, a Lucha Libre wrestling experience, and a full-day Tequila experience in the town of Tequila, Jalisco. The company also provides corporate events, as reflected in its Wikidata description as a "tour and corporate events company based in Guadalajara, Mexico." The brand has assembled a multilingual and multicultural guiding team. Alongside founder Valeria, the team includes Nayeli, who focuses on the details that make each experience unique; Georgia, originally from London, who became a "proudly adopted Tapatía"; and Alexandra, a Canadian art historian and art consultant who has embraced Guadalajara as her home since 2016. This mix supports the company's stated aim of welcoming visitors regardless of language, age, preferences, or disabilities. CaminaGDL markets its tours through its official website, caminamexico.com, and maintains a presence on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, WhatsApp, and Tripadvisor.
