Rejseplan
Du bliver hentet på vores mødested for at begynde din bløde gåtur på cirka 3 timer under en kort oversigt over, hvad du kan forvente på din vej. Antigua Guatemala, en gang den tredje største by i hele det spanske koloniale Amerika og i 200 år Guatemala's hovedstad, er det i dag en fredelig, smuk og delvist restaureret koloniby. Brostensbelagte gader snor sig gennem byen af majestætiske kirker og klostre.
La Merced Church of Guatemalas Ultrabaroque stil, dette tempel har to bjergtårne. På facaden af kirken er i sin øverste del en skulptur af San Pedro Nolasco, grundlæggeren af Mercedarian Order.
Santa Catalina Arch, bygget for at forbinde nonnerne mellem klostre for at undgå at blive set på grund af de stemmer, som den religiøse, der tilhørte den ordre, tog efter jordskælvene fra 1773, blev bugen vigtig på grund af de ordninger, der blev foretaget. Disse arrangementer omfattede opførelsen af et tårn og inkorporeringen af et Lamy Amp Lacroix ur af fransk oprindelse.
Central Park omgivet af det traditionelle gittermønster, der ofte bruges i byplanlægning i de spanske kolonier. Parken er omgivet af palæet for de generelle kaptajner, rådhuset, katedralen i San Jose og handelsportalen. Her i parken finder vi også Las Sirenas springvand. Denne fontæne har en traditionel mundtlig, hvor greven af La Gomera beordrede at opbygge springbrønden til minde om sine døtre, som ved fødslen ikke ønskede at amme deres børn for det, som tælleren beordrede at binde sine døtre til et kuffert midt i et vandhul, hvor de døde af tørst og sult.
La Unions tank er et af de mest repræsentative vaskerier i denne by, kun de store huse havde et sted, hvor de kunne vaskes. Af denne grund gik de fleste indbyggere - husmødre - til offentlige vaskerier. Dette blev indviet den 3. februar 1853.
Enden på vores gåtur.

This is a SCAM!! . The guide never showed up. We were never contacted by the local tour operator so did not have a phone number to call them. My son & I waited 40 mins. It was a complete scam. Never ever book this tour. There is no information on how to request a a refund.
Dear Eku Unfortunately, your tour had been canceled previously, which is why you were not picked up for it. We regret this inconvenience.
Great tour of the city with stops to churches and museums to explore. Thank you for a great time. Recommend.
This was an amazing experience! My daughter and I learned so much about this beautiful town. I appreciated Roberto’s knowledge and passion during our tour. He provided so much history and gave us a much deeper understanding of Antigua. We received great recommendations or places to see, eat etc. I was impressed by Roberto’s enthusiasm, kindness and his genuine pride of this most beautiful town. I can’t recommend Roberto and this tour enough!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Antigua. Our guide Ruben, did an awesome job making sure we saw all of the beautiful sights in the city. We particularly enjoyed casa San Domingo and all the Antiquities there. There was going to be a wedding the following day and so we were able to see the reception hall and church being prepared for it. The Jade factory tour was interesting but we particularly enjoyed the arch and Merced Church.
Dear Dyan Thank you for having booked with us and for takes the time to share your experience lived with us !!
Our tour guide Sao Paolo was excellent. He knew a lot about the history of Antigua and Guatemala and was able to explain it concisely to us in English. We were in the tour with another couple from Spain, so Sao Paolo would switch back and forth between English and Spanish without missing a beat as he guided us through the city. I was amazed! He could tell this was our first time in Guatemala and offered suggestions on what to do, where to go, what to eat, where to buy the best coffee, I'd recommend this tour to begin your stay in Antigua!

Alfredo was an excellent guide, and taught us all about this beautiful and historic city. It was the first thing we did when we arrived, which helped make the remainder of our visit to the city so much enjoyable because we learned so much and had such a greater appreciation for the city and its people. I highly recommend this walking tour to anyone who visits Antigua.
