Walk Antigua with a Spanish or English-speaking guide such as JJ, Roberto, or Esteban, sampling six to seven local foods, two drinks, fruit, sweets, coffee, and atol. You will visit food stalls and the market, hear about Mayan traditions and colonial Antigua, and finish with restaurant tips.

“I cannot rave more about this tour. Highly RECOMMEND, please don’t hesitate to book this. Our guide, Jay Jay was super knowledgeable, engaging and well respected in the community. We went deep into the Guatemalan culture to some great restaurants and were welcomed by the lovely and friendly owners. He gave us access to a part of the culture that we wouldn’t have otherwise and for that, I am grateful. I would tour over and over again. Btw, the Chicken Bus ride was a wild but fun experience. I hope you enjoy. Kesha- NYC”

2.Street Food Tour Around Antigua

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 67 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $80Top rated

Meet Milton at 7 pm in Antigua for a three-hour street-food outing by private minibus. You will visit nearby towns, try shucos, tacos, gringas, churros, tortillas con carne, desserts, drinks, and learn about Guatemalan food and culture along the way.

“We were lucky enough to be the only people signed up for the night so it ended up being a private tour. It was THE BEST time. Milton is so friendly and knowledgeable. His passion for good food and his dedication to supporting small local businesses was felt throughout the entire trip. We were picked up on time and the tour lasted about 2.5 hours. The food was 10/10 and we were stuffed by the end. My partner and I have not stopped talking about the shuco we had at the first stop. This was an amazing way to try the street food around Antigua. I would definitely recommend this…”
