“I cannot rave more about this tour. Highly RECOMMEND, please don’t hesitate to book this. Our guide, Jay Jay was super knowledgeable, engaging and well respected in the community. We went deep into the Guatemalan culture to some great restaurants and were welcomed by the lovely and friendly owners. He gave us access to a part of the culture that we wouldn’t have otherwise and for that, I am grateful. I would tour over and over again. Btw, the Chicken Bus ride was a wild but fun experience. I hope you enjoy. Kesha- NYC”

Review of Guatemala City’s $30 walking and public bus tour, covering Zone 1 landmarks, Central Market, local guides, timing, value, and practical tips.

“Excellent walking tour. It ended up being just me and my partner so we had a private tour! Armando was very informative and friendly, and knew a lot about Guatemala City from his experiences working there and being a previous firefighter! He imparted a lot of information, including about the government structure, Mayan history, and architecture. We saw lots of things within zone 1, and went to places we wouldn't have known about. Highly recommended!”
