5The best market and cooking tour!
Had a great experience with Dario our tour guide. The market tour was thorough and able to buy authentic Guatemalan souvenirs. The cooking class was my favorite part, had a lot of fun making the food and learning about the origin plus it was tasty! Overall enjoyed the whole experience.
5Dario and his team are amazing
Dario and his team were amazing. My friends and I had the best time. The market tour was very informative and brought us closer to the Guatemalan culture. We cooked, we laughed, we made connections. Thank you to Dario’s kind, personable nature, it was a wonderful experience. The wine was an added bonus. Make Dario the manager!!! I would do this again!

5Market and cooking tour in Antigua.
It was a fun experience exploring the market buying vegetables and fruit and using the ingredients to make lunch. Dario our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. He made every effort to give is a completely vegetarian 3 course meal. Would recommend the tour to anyone who is interested in regional cuisines.

About Antigua
Antigua Guatemala is a colonial city of cobbled streets, ruined churches and pastel façades, ringed by three volcanoes in the Guatemalan highlands.
Antigua was the capital of Spanish Guatemala until earthquakes in 1773 led to the move of the government to the present capital. The grid of cobbled streets and low colonial houses survived, together with the ruins of grand churches and convents, and the town is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The yellow Santa Catalina Arch, with its clock tower, frames Volcán de Agua at the end of a street.
Top-ranked sights in Antigua: Antigua Central Park (Parque Central), Cerro de la Cruz (Hill of the Cross), La Merced Church (Iglesia de la Merced).
