Fun Night Time Tour! - Luis was very informative and made it a fun atmosphere. Great to get out on a walk at night. Will teach you all about Antigua urban legends and some history as well.

BEST tour in Antigua!! - This is a truly unique and special experience in Antigua, showing you a history of the city and its surroundings that you won’t see or hear at the major attractions. Luis was such a pleasure to tour with, and told the legends and stories in such a way that you could see them around you. Highly, highly recommend!

What a great way to start... - What a great way to start our trip to Antigua! Luis, our tour guide, was such a gem. So knowledgeable, so engaging, and a great story-teller. We did this tour the evening we arrived in Antigua and it really helped to provide an introduction to the culture and the stories that make this such a special city. Luis incorporated everything from Mayan legends, to colonial ghost stories, to astronomy lessons, and wonderful local recommendation for shopping, and eating. This tour set us up to be able to appreciate everything we encountered around the city. And honestly, we couldn’t stop referencing the stories we learned for the rest of our stay in Antigua. Do yourself a favor and book this tour with Luis!!

Book this one! - I loved this tour! I did a different tour and it was not nearly as good as this one. I am glad I took the chance even though there were not many reviews. I learned so much! The guide has great English (if that is important for you). He was funny, helpful, and the stories were unique.

Luis was amazing - Luis was an amazing tour guide and super knowledgeable, on top of his friendliness. My girlfriend and I learned so much thanks to Luis’s knowledge. In comparison to other tours, he does an amazing job at explaining how Spaniard and Mayan culture influenced the architecture. He also gave us an insight on local legends. Our Antigua experience was 10x better. Highly recommend. Plus we learned Mayan numbers 👍🏻

Best tour of Antigua hands down! - Luis was fantastic! This tour was so much more than what I expected. I was thinking we would have some campy fun and that walking around the city at night would be beautiful and fun. What we got was so much more Mayan history, legend, lore. He even gave us information about the Mayan language and mathematics it was so awesome. Now obviously there were plenty of spooky stories and creepy tales too. Luis was so engaging and a wonderful storyteller as well. Would 100% recommend.
