Overview

If you want to discover and experience something different from the traditional tours, this sensory tour connects you with the essence of its living culture. We walk to the colorful local market, where history, tradition and daily life are intertwined. Throughout the tour, we will explore the world of popular commerce, productive dynamics, local fruits and vegetables, and the ancestral use of medicinal plants in the municipal market.

This tour not only shows the market, but also reveals the processes of transculturation, creative recycling and local ingenuity expressed in clothing, gastronomy and transportation. As part of the experience, you will have the opportunity to get to know the old city "Ciudad Vieja" through a real Chicken Bus.

Let yourself be enveloped by the aromas, colors and textures of the market, and immerse yourself in an educational, sensory and cultural experience. Perfect for those who want to know the most authentic Antigua, this tour offers a close look at its people, their knowledge and their daily economy. We are waiting for you to experience the soul of the market like never before!
