I wasn’t surprised this tour would be great because I KNEW it would be great and Victor did not disappoint! ❤️ extremely enthusiastic, knowledgeable man who made time fly by. Thank you so much!!
Victor is a knowledgable and kind man. I showed up to his 9am tour to a surprise of no other participants. He asked if I could come back for his 12pm tour, to which I gladly agreed. Until then, he helped me convert money, buy a hat, and acquire some new sandals. I was able to practice my Spanish with him as well, as we spoke about Guatemala's history and he was able to answer my questions with expert precision. The actual tour itself was also enriching. I've kept in touch with Victor for additional questions/advice about traveling in the country. 11/10 recommend.
We enjoyed our tour with Victor. He gave us historical facts to understand how Antigua evolved in time and how the country deals with his Mayan history. The tour allowed us to have the basis to continue exploring the other colonial places in the city. And we went to a rooftop recommending by him twice as the view of the volcanoes were amazing. Overall a great tour in great English so easy to follow.
