A very cool and interesting activity, with a very deep and detailed explanation of the history of the place. Mr. Luis was very kind, he helped us take photos in the emblematic places and surprised us with some excellent surprises along the way.

Colorful colonial façades and an unparalleled historical legacy await you on this free tour of Antigua Guatemala, a truly captivating city.

Antigua Free Walking Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at number 10 Calle Poniente, in the middle of the Central Park square, to begin this free tour of Antigua Guatemala, one of the great colonial jewels of Central America.

In this square, we'll admire the exteriors of the Cathedral, the Town Hall Palace and the Palacio de los Capitanes Generales. Then, we'll walk along the famous Calle del Arco, home to the iconic Arco de Santa Catalina, whose surroundings are noted for its markets and restaurants.

The route will then continue past the church of La Merced, which is particularly notable for its impressive façade, and the Casa de Santo Domingo, a former monastery characterised by its beautiful colonial art.

We'll then pass the Tanque de La Unión and the Jade Museum. We'll also discover other fascinating places in the area and, after a 2-hour tour, we'll conclude this free tour of Antigua Guatemala in the historic centre of the city.

Nos gustó mucho el recorrido de la ciudad. Tuvimos un retraso por el tráfico debido a las procesiones de semana santa y el guía nos esperó los 15 minutos que nos demoramos. Fue muy amable durante todo el tour y estuvo muy interesante. Nos hubiera gustado que el tour incluyera más edificios y no tanto llevar a tiendas para intentar vender. Sin embargo en el tour si se logra ver lo principal y realizar varias actividades locales.

J aurais prefere plus de repère géographique que historique. Je pensais que c était un tour pour me familiariser avec les lieux géographiques. Vs dites que c est gratuit et je comprends qu il faut laisser un pourboire mais le guide ns a demandé 100 Q chacun en ns disant que c etait la norme. Ns n avions pas cet argent sur ns. Il faudrait être plus clair quant aux pourboire s

¡Nos ha encantado este tour! Debo destacar que al reservar, recibí una llamada muy amable del operador donde se pone a las órdenes y nos solicitaba más detalles de nuestros perfiles y necesidades con el objetivo de que nuestra experiencia fuese más agradable. Acordamos detalles logísticos y nos direccionó con quien sería nuestro guía: Fidencio quien se adaptó a nuestras necesidades de manera prolija personalizando el servicio y brindándonos excelentes recomendaciones.
