Chef Wilfredo was very inviting and accommodating. Held very good conversation comparing similarities to cultures and travel. Food tasted so amazing and the quality of the class was very informative. All ingredients were fresh and answered all questions when they were asked. Lovely guy! On my return back to Guatemala I would 100% take his cooking class again!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Shuttle Service! I had a great experience with this shuttle from La Aurora International Airport to Antigua. The driver was very friendly, professional, and welcoming. He arrived earlier than the scheduled booking time, helped me with my bags, and made the whole process easy and stress-free after my flight. The vehicle was very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The service was reliable, punctual, and professional from start to finish. I highly recommend booking with him if you need safe and comfortable transportation from the airport to Antigua. I would definitely use this service again!

I definitely recommend and will use again whenever we come back. Keila y Carlos 🇵🇷

Great experience

Our driver Marlon picked us up from the airport and expertly navigated the traffic on the way to Pana. The van was comfortable, Marlon spoke great English, and he stopped at a restaurant along the way so we could have a delicious lunch. Would definitely book again!

Roberto was an absolutely wonderful driver from Guatemala City to Antigua. He was kind, professional, punctual, and made us feel comfortable from the moment he picked us up. He helped us with all of our bags, and his vehicle was very clean, well maintained, and safe. During the drive, Roberto talked with us about Guatemala, explained what we were seeing along the way, and patiently answered all of our questions. His English is excellent, which made communication easy and enjoyable. We learned so much about the culture from him during our trip. He also went above and beyond for us by stopping when we needed a bathroom break and happily pulling over at a little roadside ice cream truck when we asked to stop for ice cream. He gave us great recommendations for restaurants in Antigua and shared helpful safety advice about both Antigua and Guatemala City. Even in heavy traffic, Roberto stayed calm, patient, and drove very safely. By the end of the trip, he felt more like a friend than just a driver. We have stayed in touch, and we are so grateful we had him for this experience. We highly recommend Roberto to anyone traveling in Guatemala!

Tikal Day Trip by Air from Guatemala City with Lunch

Long day, but soooo worth it!

Long day, but completely worth it! Everything was well-planned and executed from start to finish. Herbert, our guide for the day was knowledgeable and patient with our group and we saw everything we needed to see. It’s a lot of walking, but mostly flat and when there are steps, there aren’t a lot of them and they’re on a small incline. You’ll definitely enjoy this tour! I visited at the end of May, so it can rain in the afternoon, but we were done at two. I packed an umbrella, but didn’t have to use it. Do bring sunscreen and a hat! Lunch was after the tour at a local restaurant not too far away and I enjoyed everything they had prepared! One piece of advice for the airport is the domestic entrance is hidden a bit. After checking in, you’ll go through sliding glass doors to get through security and through screening. When you go through the glass doors, go down the escalator and keep walking straight until you walk into the wall (almost) and the domestic line will be to your left. The other lines are for international and those signs are posted everywhere.

Our driver Diego was awesome! Our arrival time into the airport was delayed so we figured we would have to reschedule a ride, but we were wrong! Diego waited 40 minutes for us and greeted us with a sign with my name on it. The directions to meet him were very clear and easy to follow. He drove us from the airport to Antigua. His car was very clean and he was very friendly. He gave us recommendations on our trip and ensured we got to our destination safely!

Our driver Rene

Our driver Rene waited patiently for us to go through customs which took a long time as we could not access the QR code at the airport due to unavailable WiFi. Rene was a cautious, safe, friendly, helpful driver that went out of his way to make sure we were delivered safely despite all the rain and flooded streets in ANTGUA on our particular arrival day. Yes, I would highly recommend Viator.

Guatemala City to Antigua

Our driver Rolando was great. Our flight was delayed multiple times and the company was very accommodating to let us know it was no problem and someone would pick us up whenever we arrived. Rolando got us through the rush hour traffic in Guatemala City and to Antigua all in one piece and made sure we got into our accommodation before he left us. Would recommend Rolando and this company for your transfer needs in Guatemala

The gentleman made me feel very safe and comfortable. I was absolutely starving, and he actually stopped on the way, so that I could grab some food. He was friendly and we bonded over music and our language barrier. I actually wished I had his contact info so that I could’ve used him again.
