There’s no admission fee to visit Tlaquepaque, as it’s actually a neighborhood, but you will need to factor in the cost of transportation or tours.

Q: How do you get to Tlaquepaque from Guadalajara?

Tlaquepaque is about 6.8 miles (11 kilometers) from Guadalajara via Avenida Dr Roberto Michel. The easiest way to get there is by taking a tour that includes transportation or hopping in a private rideshare, as public transportation can be both hit-and-miss and confusing.

Q: When’s the best time of year to visit Tlaquepaque?

The best time to visit Tlaquepaque is between November and April, when the weather is pleasant but not too humid. May temperatures can get quite hot, while the summer months see some rainfall. You may encounter crowds if you visit in the weeks leading up to the winter holidays.

Q: Are there restaurants and cafés in Tlaquepaque?

Yes, there are lots of restaurants and cafés in Tlaquepaque. Keep an eye out for Jalisco specialties such as birria, a goat or beef-based dish that's made with spices, peppers, and onions, and pozole, a soup made with hominy and pork or chicken. Popular desserts include arroz con leche (a type of rice pudding) and a flan-esque dish called jericalla.

Private Art Pottery Tour: Tlaquepaque, Tonalá, and Clay Workshop

David_M, Dec 2024

Make sure to visit Tonala and Tlaquepaque wilt Fernando and Polo as your guides.

My husband and I had an amazing tour of Tónala and Tlaquepaque with our guides Fernando and Polo. We learned so much about the history of both areas and went to a famous ceramic studio where we learned how the process involved with these world famous ceramics. We also visited a ceramic studio where we were shown how to make a clay perrito. Walking the streets of Tlaquepaque was so interesting and has an abundance of beautiful artwork, crafts and excellent restaurants. It’s a must visit!

Our guide, David Arce was the perfect ambassador to these art districts of Tonala and Tlaquepaque. We visited studios, received a private ceramic lesson and strolled the streets on market day. Among the finest guides we have encountered, anywhere. Highly recommended. Yes, it's expensive - but it's a day that will live on in your memory, forever.

Great and informative experience!

Fernando was an amazing guide! We learned a ton during this trip about the histories of Tonalá and Tlapenaque, as well as about Guadalajara in general. The artisans we met at the pottery places were very friendly and informative, and they were excited to teach us about their techniques and family traditions. I’d highly recommend anyone to join a tour with Fernando and to visit these places.
