Walk Antigua’s main sights in 2.5 hours with a small-group guide, stories of Guatemala’s third capital, and practical tips.
“We really enjoyed our tour through town! We learned all about the Spanish influence in the architecture and building details that we completely missed while walking around ourselves. Our tour guide, Luis Gonzalez, was patient with our 7 year old who became fixated on cotton candy while walking around and provided a fun trivia throughout the tour. He was fabulous with kids and tried to keep her interested through the tour. The length was perfect and the historical knowledge was something we wouldn’t have learned otherwise. After the tour, we found ourselves continuing to point out things our guide informed us about! Low key and small, we enjoyed every minute…”

“Když jsem kupoval tuhle aktivitu , tak jsem se drobet bál, protože tu není moc recenzí. Ale vše proběhlo v pořádku. Jestli letíte do Flores kvůli Tikalu, tak rozhodne do programu doporučuji zařadit i tuhle aktivitu. Yaxha se mi neskutečně líbila, hlavně díky tomu, že nebyla přeplněna turisty , byla tak prázdná. Mohli jste si více užít zvuk zvířat , přítomný okamžik … doopravdy doporučuji.”
