“Very educational and highly enjoyable!”

Edgar was so warm, so knowledgeable and so interesting! Due to cancellations I was treated to a solo tour and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and learnt so much - he kindly incorporated a little Spanish vocabulary as I said I was trying to learn. It's a small area but Edgar pointed out so many hidden details from history that it is well worth a tour to begin to understand Antigua's architectural style and historical importance. He ended with some excellent recommendations of restaurants, bars/breweries and museums to visit. Highly recommended!

I do a walking tour in almost all cities I visit but this one was unfortunately subpar. The guide was not very articulate or structured and made digressions on topics with no relation to Antigua or Guatemala. Overall it was a disappointment for our group

“Forced to tip certain amount! Do NOT recommend! ”

Unfortunately we got totally scammed!!! I love to travel and therefore I have been to a lot of free city tours, to also understand the concept of the tipping. We got forced to pay 100quetzal each which I would happily pay if the tour was excellent. As the tour was only ok, I find the 100 quetzal not fair. In the end to force us to pay the asked amount and getting rude about when we had to explain to the guide the concept, was very irritating and shocking to me. I do NOT recommend this tour!!!!

Unser sympathischer Guide Giovanni berichtet vielseitig und lebendig über das Land Guatemala und die Stadt Antigua, über Geschichte damals und Bezug und Einfluss zur / auf die Gegenwart, beantwortet geduldig und professionell alle Fragen über Kultur, Politik, Alltag, Probleme, Bevölkerung, Kulinarik, etc. Auch der Besuch im Jade - Museum war ein toller Abschluss. Giovanni hat eine sehr gewinnende Art, sein Englisch ist super und sein Wissen weitreichend und beinahe unerschöpflich. Man merkt sofort, dass er seine Führertätigkeit nicht nur gerne macht, sondern mit ganzem Herzen dabei ist. Er war vor der FreeWalkingTour über 20 Jahre lang professionell als Guide tätig. Das merkt man sofort. Sein Tipp für ein authentisches Restaurant "La Casa Del Chapin" (gleich neben dem Markt in Antigua) mit dem traditionellen Gericht PEPIAN war total super!???? Muchos Gracias! Wir empfehlen jedem Besucher von Antigua zu Beginn eine Tour bei Giovanni online zu buchen bzw. zu reservieren!????
