Overview

**Antigua, Guatemala: where history comes alive, step by step**

Discover Antigua Guatemala through an interpretive experience that goes far beyond a traditional city tour. Learn to “read the city” as its architecture, ruins, churches, plazas, and cobblestone streets reveal stories from the past. Explore **Santo Domingo**, where ruins tell of grandeur, earthquakes, and transformation; **San Francisco**, home to the legacy of Saint Brother Pedro; and the **Central Plaza**, once the heart of colonial life. Discover the fascinating story behind the **Santa Catalina Arch** and finish at **La Merced**, where the magnificent Baroque façade becomes an open book of art, faith, and symbolism. More than sightseeing, this is a journey into the soul of Antigua—**where every stone holds a story and history comes alive step by step.**

Things to note

Conditions and Terms:
Because it is a dynamic, enjoyable, relevant, and organized walk that has a historical thread, we inform you of the following:

1. Children under 12 years old are not allowed.

2. Pets are not allowed (you cannot enter historic buildings with them).

3. If you are behind, you cannot join at another point (you lose the thread). Better cancel.

4. These walks are collective and not private.

5. During the walk, you cannot delay the group or disrupt its development by personal shopping, bathing, or visiting stores (you can leave it for the end).

6. All free tours do not have a fixed price; it is a recognition of the guides' performance, and a good experience is suggested for GUATEMALA.

7. No drugs and no alcohol. In Antigua, it is prohibited to drink alcohol on the streets.
