Iximche was a special memory. So much history and incredible view into Maysn history. Antigua was special for its Italian engineer and Moor architecture. Ancient uneven cobblestone street is challenging for mobility impaired.

Great private tour with knowledgeable guide. The ruins are a long way from Antigua so be prepared for an hour long ride. The guide was proud of his city and the Antigua tour was worth every minute. Antigua has a rich history and hearing from a local was exactly what I was looking for

We had a wonderful time on this tour. It was a good amount of time in both places. We got to see the beauty, history, and architecture of the city with time left to shop and eat, and then headed to the ruins. Our tour guide, Mirco, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and very personable. We plan to use this group for future adventures.

Carmen was my guide on this solo tour. She is a great story teller and gave me all kinds of historical information! Iximche was truly stunning, and we went there first before the rain started and saw a Mayan ceremony, too. Antigua was beautiful and all the locations we stopped in were very interesting! It was pouring by that time, so Carmen drove between stops and I truly appreciated that. Had a nice lunch and she gave me a couple souvenirs, which was so sweet! The magnet is on my refrigerator Carmen! Muchisimas gracias por todo!

We were fortunate to have Carmen as our Tour Guide. She was professional, palpably passionate about Mayan culture and possessed a wealth of Guatemalan historical knowledge. Throughout our day together, she demonstrated helpfulness, patience, and generosity toward us. Her personal stories and anecdotes truly illuminated our experience. We were blessed to witness several Mayan ancestral ceremonies behind the ruins in real time with her guidance of respectful observation. The Antigua afternoon was relaxed and fun with cacao tastings and a mini Jade tour, in addition to shopping, gelato, cathedrals and more historical tidbits. We highly recommend this tour and suggest you specifically request Carmen as your Guide. You will be grateful that you did.

I loved loved loved (!!!) this tour. Honestly, this was probably the most incredible highlight of my trip. Belisario was a great guide and so full of knowledge. He truly made the tour an unforgettable experience! I would recommend this tour to any and every one. Please take note that there is A LOT of walking, but it is soooo worth it. You will not regret booking this tour. Amazing!

The guide was Peter (probably Pedro) was very intelligent. The ruins then selves are small but you learn alot from him and the small museum there as well. The Antigua part is short as well, he takes you to a couple spots you wouldn’t think of including as church, a scenic overlook of the town and a jade store. I’d recommend him. On these tours your tour guide really makes the difference.
