If you only have a short period of time in Guatemala City, this tour is for you.

It is a general tour around Guatemala City. We'll have to limit what we see, but I can give you a good overview - driving through the main boulevards and avenues in the city, from the ancient Kaminaljuyú (archaeological site within the city limits), some markets and a short hike around downtown's historic center.

Our day is flexible to meet your needs.

I'd suggest we start in Kaminaljuyú, a Mayan archaeological site located within the city limits.

After that, I'll take you to the "Mapa en relieve", a scale model of the whole map of Guatemala.

Then we visit the downtown historic center, which we'll explore walking around its markets, some historical buildings.

At some point, we can stop for a refreshing drink in a traditional bar or coffee shop.
