Amazing!!!!! - Gustavo was the best tour guide I have ever had. I was there alone in Guatemala City on a long layover and alone as a solo traveler meeting my family later. This tour was only a half day but I learned so much and saw some great sights and it was really nice and beautiful. Gustavo has perfect English and also unlike many tour guides in the past that I’ve had he didn’t pressure me to buy anything at markets or vendors. Thank you so much for a great tour!!!

Exciting and informative tour of Guate! - Gustavo is an excellent guide and I highly recommend this tour. We covered the main attractions of Guatemala city, starting from Berlin Park and ending at the main square downtown. I left with a true appreciation of the beauty of this amazing city. Door to door service by car made the tour comfortable and enjoyable.

Fantastic tour! - As a solo female traveler, I get nervous with booking tours simply because I never know who or what I might get. But Gustavo was excellent! This is his craft and he actually cares, not only to inform, but to celebrate Guatemalan history and culture. While he is laid back he also is very attentive, witty, and made sure I left feeling the heart of the city. He also made sure I got my souvenirs including helping me search for an authentic license plate. I would recommend him 10 x’s
