Cycle from Antigua into the Almolonga Valley, visit lost Ciudad Vieja, villages, and Valhalla macadamia farm on a guided half-day ride.
“We loved this tour so much! It was an incredible way to learn about Antigua and the surrounding villages and areas. Getting to see the areas outside of Antigua especially is something we wouldn’t have experienced otherwise on our trip and was such a highlight. It’s a beautiful bike ride too with so many great views. Our guide was so wonderful, extremely accommodating, fun and taught us so much. He was very patient with us and made sure we felt comfortable and safe as people who don’t bike often. Highly recommend!”
