• 5Incredibly informative...

  Incredibly informative tour. We learned so much and really feel connected to the city now. We especially appreciated the part of the tour inside the central market, as there were so many items we wouldn’t have recognized. Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend this tour!

  Traffic is very busy in the city but calms down once you’re out a little bit. There are beautiful structures hidden throughout the city. Christian, our guide, was very friendly and authentic.

• 5Trusted Transportation Company in Guatemala

  I was in town visiting for a week in Guatemala City and not only booked private tours to the city and Antigua but for private transportation. The tour guides Luis and Roberto were excellent. They could speak English if needed. Roberto went out of his way to help my aunt in and out of the van to ensure her safety as she is handicapped. ALL the drivers were exceptional- punctual, friendly, respectful and also knowledgeable, specially Joel. I was impressed with their customer service and will definitely use Authentic Guatemala when I return.
