Nestled in a beautiful valley surrounded by hills and 3 massive volcanoes, La Antigua is a charming colonial town that will make you feel time stopped some 300 years ago. It was once the capital of Guatemala before several earthquakes rocked the city in the 16th century, destroying buildings and leaving the city in ruins. From its remarkable architecture, strolling through its cobblestone streets and enjoying its beautiful surroundings, you will learn about Guatemala's history during colonial times. Antigua is home to the largest Easter celebration in the world in which the Crucifix and the Resurrection of Jesus are commemorated. The procession was brought over by Spanish missionaries in the 16th Century. The entire city takes part in the event, accompanied by thousands of travelers coming to experience the energy of Holy Week. If you come around easter time, you can't miss this event! This tour is for those already in Antigua. If your location is different, please request a customized tour
