We started our tour by driving to Antigua and Mr. Mirco started by explaining us the history of Antigua Guatemala , our first stop was el cerro de la cruz , where we had an amazing view of the city , we got amazing pictures and then headed to the coffee plantation where he explained us the process of the making of coffee , we got a taste of the great coffee as well , after that we stop at different spots that were part of our tour and Mr. Mirco made it very interesting and enjoyable .

Wonderful day trip to Antigua - Gustavo messaged us the night before our tour to confirm pick up details. He was a professional, polite and friendly guide and extremely knowledgeable. He made our tour super interesting. Our driver, Henry was also very professional. We did the walking tour of Antigua, had an hour in our own to look around the shops, cafes etc and then drove to the plantation for coffee and chocolate tours and samples. We had a lovely meal at the plantation and it had lots of vegan and vegetarian options.

Worthwhile visit - I liked the uniqueness of the area no massive concrete structures friendly people lots of hucksters but they have to earn a living left if you smiled and said no felt safe there

Antigua and coffee farm - Gustavo was our driver and guide and did an excellent job. On the drive to Antigua he explained a lot about the history and culture of Guatemala and especially Antigua. The first couple hours of the day he took us to special landmarks and the Jade museum, entertaining us with his historical stories. The secon portion of the morning we split up and had time to discover and shop on our own. On the way back to Guatemala City we stopped at a coffee farm and museum. This was a really cool area to walk through and enjoy. One caveat is make sure to wear sturdy shoes as the cobblestone streets will play havoc on your feet if wearing flip flops. This was a great day tour.

There and back again - A quick overview of a beautiful city. So glad I got to go. It was a rough drive between Guatemala city and Antigua, but our driver was great and gave us a nice history of Guatemala.

Antigua totally worth seeing - Our guide was Carmen. She was amazing, very knowledgeable and paid attention to several details in Antigua that were hidden treasure ! She was very flexible with us and we really enjoyed our day in Antigua. Tour was a bit pricy we could’ve get same tour locally for third of a price working directly with the agency.
