• 5Great Tour

  I had a wonderful tour. My guide was very personable and engaging. The guide had to make some adjustments to the itinerary/ schedule due to available times at the Presidential Palace, but if he hadn't told me, I would have never known because it went smoothly.

• 5Awesome tour for solo female traveler

  Esteban was great! Easy pickup from the airport and very knowledgable about the history and culture of the city. I loved how easy it was to tailor the experience for what i was looking for in a private tour. Esteban went above and beyond in making me feel welcomed and making sure I got to my airbnb safely. I really appreciated his help with navigation and translation for my stay.

• 5Outstanding tour of Guatemala’s historic central district

  Our guide, Pamela, was outstanding - she did a fantastic job of helping us understand the significance of the historical center, its architecture and its evolution and pointed out all sorts of little details / places that we would have missed. If you are staying out of the city center - the drive in to the historic district is challenging (we were in Cayala) and time consuming so figure that into your plans. The presidential palace is impressive and interesting but the timing of access can be restricted and is not posted. Pamela did an amazing job of navigating these challenges that are out of her control without a ruffle. Our conversations with her on the educational and political systems were touch points thru out the remainder of our trip.

• 5Go for it

  Pamella was wonderful. A really nice experience. The visit to the government building is kinda meh but the market and museum were great. I appreciated Pamella dropping me at my desired location instead of where she picked me up in the morning. Worth the money for sure.

• 5Guatemala City private tour

  This was an almost last minute decision and I was so pleased that I decided to go ahead. I have done a private tour before. I like to do group tours but the advantage of a private tour is being able to go at your own pace, particularly if shopping. I had two places that I particularly wanted to see: the National Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology and the Central Market. The entrance fees were included and a bottle of water. The museum was stunningly curated. This is something I've noticed with all the museums in Guatemala City thus far, they are all beautifully curated and we had plenty of time to take it all in. The Central Market was full of atmosphere and I was able to have a good look around and bought some items. We were in time for a group tour of the Palace and I found it fascinating. Fernando was a genial and informative guide. I felt welcome and the tour felt fresh. It was great to be out and about in the city.

• 5Great Experience

  This was a half day tour that covered a lot of information. Our guide, Pamela, was very knowledgeable. She was punctual, kind and a joy to be around. I am leaving Guatemala so much more knowledgeable about the history than I was when arrived. That’s all because of Pamela.
