Eduardo and driver Marlon were superb. Excellent information on the culture, politics, economics and history of the Guatemalan/Mayan people. Pace was perfect - not rushed and thoroughly answered our questions. Great way to spend a day. Marlon was an excellent driver in this country filled with motorbikes and serpentine roads.
Great experience. Customized to our needs Eduardo was a fantastic guide and Rene our driver was great
This was an outstanding tour, due to the extensive knowledge and engaging personality of our guide, Eduardo. Fortunately, we wore sturdy shoes with good traction, a must for navigating the ruins.
Eduardo (the guide) and Julio (the driver) were excellent. Had a great time at the market in Chichicastenango and the Mayan ruins in Iximche. Eduardo is a great guide. Very good English and a wealth of information. He is very considerate of the Mayan culture and very patient with questions. He is also willing to discuss the pros and cons of his country. While the market was fascinating, it was the juxtaposition of the Catholic faith and Mayan beliefs that were most educational. The visit to the cemetery was a highlight. We were fortunate enough to see some ceremonies being performed and Eduardo was there to give context. Iximche is not as well known as Tikal but is worth a visit if you have seen other sites as it is the last Mayan city to be built. It is a very nice setting as well. Overall I would say that this tour was well worth the time. And cannot say enough good things about the staff.
This was one of the best tours we've ever taken. The market is mesmerizing and, as busy as it is, the atmosphere was still calm and not overwhelming. It's a truly unique experience. Iximche was so beautiful and peaceful. The tour is well timed and never felt rushed. But what really made the day unforgettable was our guide, Carlos. You can tell he is passionate about his work and his country. He is so nice and knowledgeable, he taught us a lot about Guatemalan history, geography, and traditions. We had a great time and I would definitely recommend this tour!
The best part of the tour was the visit to the cemetery and the Ixchimche pyramids. Experienced and well-informed guide who took care about our needs.
We absolutely loved our guide, Carlos! He’s totally passionate and his great attitude made the whole trip amazing. Seriously, you can tell he loves his job. Not only is he super enthusiastic and genuinely decent, but he’s also incredibly smart, giving us tons of cool, deep info without being boring. We couldn't recommend him enough!
This tour shows you the true heart and soul of the Guatemalan people and let's you see what life is like today and what it would have been like more than 2000 years ago. The best part of the tour was the conversations we had with our guide Eduardo. We started out the tour as client and guide but we left the tour feeling more like friends. He had us laughing the ENTIRE time. Through the banter, he taught us so much about Guatemalan culture and patriotism. The care he took of us and the way he tailored the tour to suit our needs was way beyond what we paid for this experience. Our driver Rene was very good and navigated the wet roads and traffic with a friendly demeanor. This tour was by far the most enjoyable and culturally rich that we did on our vacation. It was priceless, and because of Eduardo I learnt so much about Guatemala and I am looking forward to visiting again and seeing some more of the sites with this company.
Chichicastenango is a town up in the mountains with lots of Mayan culture and traditions. We were guided by Eduardo, who was an expert in every aspect of the history and traditions, and Iximche Pyramids were a very clear picture of the last vestiges of the Mayan empire.
We had a great time with our guide Eduardo. We were picked up early in Antigua. Spend half the day at the ChiChi market (couldn’t have navigated this without a guide) and then the second half of the day at Iximche. Eduardo was exceptional. Guided us through the market, was patient while we purchased items, gave extensive explanations of the Catholic Church and the Mayan history, and took us around the cemetery as well. He has an extensive knowledge of Mayan history and culture and was wonderful at the ruins as well. So worth the money for the transport and the guide knowledge. Thank you Eduardo!!!
