After breakfast, we’ll spend the morning exploring the former capital of Guatemala in depth. Filled with countless colonial ruins, the city was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. We’ll visit highlights such as the Convent of Las Capuchinas, the Cathedral, the churches of San Francisco and La Merced, the main square, and many other charming corners. We’ll also head up to the Cerro de la Cruz viewpoint, where you can enjoy stunning panoramic views of the surrounding volcanoes and the beautiful town of Antigua.
Optional : In the afternoon, you can join a Guatemalan cooking class located just a short drive from Antigua. Here you’ll learn how to prepare traditional local dishes (starter, main course, dessert, and handmade tortillas), and afterwards enjoy a lovely dinner in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. At the end of the experience, we return to the hotel in Antigua.
