Itinerário
Após o embarque em seu hotel na Cidade da Guatemala, aventure-se no noroeste por aproximadamente duas horas até a cidade empoeirada de Tecpán. Você explorará o famoso sítio arqueológico com seu guia experiente, que o levará por praças cerimoniais, templos imponentes e antigas quadras de futebol. Muitos dos sites que você verá datam de 1400 AC. Passe algum tempo explorando o local antes de ir para Chichicastenango.
Continue sua viagem de um dia para Chichicastenango. Você se sentirá como se tivesse voltado no tempo ao caminhar pelas estreitas ruas de paralelepípedos da cidade e pelos telhados vermelhos. Na praça principal da cidade, visite o famoso mercado ao ar livre de Chichicastenango, repleto de produtos locais, como potes de cerâmica, esculturas em madeira e produtos artesanais, além de frutas e vegetais. Navegue pelos produtos locais e compre uma ou duas lembranças para levar para casa!
Enquanto estiver na praça, visite a Iglesia de Santo Tomas, localizada no lado leste da praça. Datada de 1540, a igreja costuma abrigar rituais maias. No lado oeste da praça, visite a Igreja do Calvário, uma versão menor da Iglesia Santo Tomas. Você está livre para almoçar (às suas próprias custas) depois de explorar o mercado. Quando terminar, aproveite o transporte conveniente de volta ao seu hotel.

Had a great time and tour. Take cash! There was no working ATM. Our poor guide walked us all over the place.
Jorge our guide and Luis our driver were absolutely great. They were on time and ready to go at 6:30AM. Their energy and vibe were so great that you would feel so awake like you just had a shot of good Guatemalan coffee. Jorge is so knowledgeable of the Mayan Culture and at the same time so humble about it that you are not intimidated by his knowledge and feel confident to ask any questions you may have. Iximche is a must go so peaceful and beautiful. The market is so vibrant and alive a real contrast to the experience at Iximche. However, in the end they are a perfect blend. You must take this tour.
Excellent experience; the guide knew a lot about the subject, and encouraged active dialogue, rather than monologues. Chichicastenango is a gem!
The down side amount of travel. The plus sidewas Oscar our guide and Miguel our driver . The sites are amazing and we got to witness some families doing ceremonies in Iximche. The market is a cultural explosion, people are nice, tight spaces and yes sales pitch is strong . Great experience
Given the worldwide capacity, Viator is unfortunately unable to control all service providers ; This local travel agency, Guatemalan Adventure, profit from the extreme popularity of this world famous open air market, but their real objective is sparing a large free time in Panajachel to suggest various optional extra activities ! The guide made an extreme effort not to lose any guests in Chichicastenango (I got free strolling time by forcing him), and brought the group to an extremely expensive restaurant (but with no wi-fi facilities !) at Panajachel with no other eating option. Then, the rest of the time is for recommendations of optional extras. I have no objection for any extras, you do it if you like but ; The program clearly states that the departure is at 6:30 am and the duration is 9 hours. Whereas we went back to hotel at 8 pm past ! Wasting full 14 hours with less than 2 hours at Chichicastenango. I absolutely not recommend this tour with this program .
Very interesting tour, started with a 3 hr drive to Panujechal and tour this lakeside town, with the market running down to the lakeshore for some great photos. than driving up to Chichicastenango, and linked up with an english speaking guide there who showed me the churches, mayan ceremonies, market (incredible), and lots of other interesting things. The day was long but seemed to go fast, we were back 1 1 hrs after leaving in the morning, with lots of good memories. Recommended if you want to get out of the city and see the real guatamala!
We started out with Jose and got about halfway to the Chichicastenango market when we had some car trouble and we all decided it would be better not to continue up the remote mountain. But within 15 minutes Jose had us combined with G-Man's group and we all went on to spend the day at Panajachel and Atitlan Lake. While there we got to visit a very interesting market on the other side of the lake after taking a boat ride. The indigenous women in that village market showed how they weave scarves and grind chocolate, etc. So it all turned out well, plus we had a good meal at the end in Panajachel.
Incredible market & beautiful churches. Lake Atitlan was lovely! Would have loved a little more time there. Fabulous way to spend the day!
Carmen picked us up right on time in a nice, clean van. She spoke great English, was charming and was an extremely careful driver. The tour was well-planned, allowing us ample time to do the shopping we wanted to do at the market in Chichicastenango and to go on to Lake Atitlan and lunch in Panajachel. We highly recommend Guatemalan Adventure! Thank you Carmen! You were a delight!
We decided to take this tour because we did not have time to go there on our own. The guide was very kind, talkative and gave us a lot of information about everything.
