Taking a tour through Antigua and going to Hobbitenango is an experience that I recommend not skipping; it is incredible and very safe, especially if you do not know how to drive ATVs... Estuardo is a 1000/10 guide, attentive and with a high sense of safety. Don't miss it

Estrado was our tour guide and he was amazing! You can tell he cares deeply about the guest on the tours and will make sure we travel throughout Antigua safely!! He also has a personal connection with each location we stopped at; improving the experience for everyone! The chocolate making was so in depth and you even get the chance to partake in some of the practices! You get to learn so much and you get to sample there unique all natural products! Estrado asked if we wanted to eat at the restaurant right across, and you definitely should. There are four traditional plates that were all amazing! There are also an array of other option that sounded really good. Overall 10/10 experience and would definitely do this tour.
Hello! Thanks for the recommendation and review, Thank you for choosing us for our Cultural Tour, when you met our guide Estuardo with his charisma and enthusiasm provided all the necessary instructions to begin your adventure, at each stop you learned more about the history of the towns around Antigua including the traditional techinique of making artisanal chocolate, before the tour ended, you also had the opportunity to sample authentic Guatemalan cuisine recommended by Estuardo.
the driving part is only done through the city in the streets, there is only a little bit that is done in a dirt road, so do not expect to drive it off road fun with the ATVs this tour is not for that, still nice to drive the ATVs through the city, otherwise there were the tours as in the description: a stop at a small local market, a stop at a Jade stone workshop and a stop at a chocolate factory + a very good local food dinner

Hi, Thank you for your great review, wer'e pleased to know that you enjoyed the Cultural Adventure tour, we hope to see you soon!
Honestly not sure the name of the trip. But Geo was fantastic! Greatest tour guide ever! He was knowledgeable and relatable. Easy to understand. He took us to Hobbitenango. The cross on the mountain. To a private jade Co where they actually were cutting and polishing the stones. An othenic hand made chocolate demonstration and tasting. And a very traditional lunch. Not to mention driving ATVs between all the different places. It was the best day I had in Antigua, Guatamala Thanks Geo for so many great memories!
You did the mountain tour :)! But iam glad you liked the tour and enjoyed the guide!
I went to Guatemala for a mission trip and had a few days to explore antigua. Our Tour guide name was Gio. He did a phenomenal job explaining each stop during the tour. We had a blast riding around the city. We visited hobitenango, a local jade shop, a family chocolate making company and the big cross facing Antigua. It was fun riding the atv on the mountains and on the local roads. The tour lasted about 6-7 hours. Bring your comfortable sneakers and be prepared to be amazed. Highly recommended.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the tour with Gio! We hope to see you next time when you are in Guatemala!
