Narrative:
Left wingtip of our A300 struck right wingtip of B747. We were taxiing on centerline. No foul lines are painted in our ramp in guadalajara. A wing walker was present and in a position to see any conflict. No signal from the wing walker was given to indicate a problem. We blocked in, went to hotel. Were called by the ramp agent and told that the B747 crew on preflight noticed damage to their wingtip.
