Fantastic walking tour of Antigua! Great way to see the city and learn it's history - We did a walking tour on our first day in Antigua as a way to learn about the city, explore, gain recommendations and figure out where to go for the remainder of our stay. Luis was an incredible guide for us! He was incredibly knowledgeable and great with our kids (ages 9, 12, 14). Great experience overall; I'd recommend him for a guide to anyone looking!

Friendly and accommodating tour guide, great for solo travelers - Luis was an excellent guide who provided great food and café recommendations while answering all of my random questions concerning Guatemalan culture and the history of Antigua. He was also patient enough to let me practice my Spanish with him, even though the tour was in English. Great for a solo traveller wanting to learn about the history of Antigua.

Can’t go wrong with Luis for a tour. - Luis is an excellent guide. We took this tour in our first full day in Antigua to orientate ourselves to the city and the history. Luis was very good at explaining the history, the Spanish and the church’s influence, the Mayans- the indigenous people of Antigua and even some of the architectural design and symbols that you see throughout the city. His English was easy to understand and he taught us some Mayan words. This is a small group tour. No more than 8 people which makes it very personal and easy to follow along. Luis a hard worker and a great guy.

Great small group tour... - Great small group tour with 6 tourists and Luis as our guide. He shared a lot of history of the Mayan culture and Spanish influence from colonization. He even taught us some words in one of the 22 Mayan languages, recommended his favorite places to eat, and took pictures for me. His English was easy to understand. I’m glad I did this tour with Luis.

A Perfect Introduction to Antigua - Absolutely wonderful walking tour with Luis! Luis was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Antigua’s history and culture. He brought the city to life with fascinating stories, thoughtful insights, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe that made the experience feel personal rather than scripted. I learned so much and truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to understand Antigua beyond the surface, this tour was a highlight of my visit!
