I went with Vini on this bike tour. I always do bike tours when traveling and this was my very favorite. This is an absolute must do. Vini is an incredible guide! Plus, I loved that all the stops were all just the right length- sometimes stops have too much information. The chocolate sampling, macadamia nut farm, and textiles were all amazing and good breaks from the ride!

It was a great way to see a different view kf the areas in and around Antigua including church ruins a macadamia plantation (and chocolate and níspero and other local liqueurs) and get a lot of exercise. Bring a small backpack for extra water and any souvenirs tiu may purchase. Not for the faint of heart since there is traffic in some parts (but that’s actually a fun part of the experience for me) and tiu really si need to be in shape as there are some significant hills. I loved it!! My guide Vinny was great. I did the tour in Spanish but one can also do so in English

The bike tour was a great way to see the surrounding towns of Antigua that you likely otherwise wouldn’t see. While we enjoyed the tour, we felt like the last stop at the macadamia farm wasn’t needed. And one thing we wished we had known was how much of the tour was going to take place on cobblestone paths. It was more than anticipated and wore us down after the first few hours. Otherwise, a nice tour! Don’t forget your sunscreen!

Superb Agency to carry out activities in Antigua. We did 2 activities with them (bike tour in the villages next to Antigua and the Pacaya volcano) and it was always super well organized, very competent and friendly guides, and in addition to small groups. We can only recommend this agency.

We really enjoyed our ride around Antigua valley and Ciudad Vieja. From other reviews, it sounds like this route may vary by tour. It was advertised as Beginner, and I would say that was accurate. Our route was mostly flat or downhill with one difficult climb (which we walked most of the way up). We stopped at a chocolate workshop, a fruit wine workshop, and a jade workshop where we got a little "tour" of the process and a chance to shop their products. The ride itself was a great way to visit some of these smaller downtowns outside Antigua. We were also lucky to also see the Lenten "carpets" that are made of sawdust and flowers in the street each Sunday of Lent before the Jesus and Mary are led through the towns. What a beautiful experience!

Thank you so much to Old Town Outfitters for organizing an absolutely incredible 10-day journey through Guatemala for our family! From start to finish, the planning and execution were nothing short of flawless. Matt thoughtfully arranged every detail of our itinerary, including nice hotels, reliable transportation with trusted drivers, and guided activities that left us in awe. The highlight for us was the 4-day mountain biking adventure through the stunning Guatemalan outbacks. A special shoutout to Pepian & the Old Town Outfitters team, who guided us from our first day volcano excursion, to our unforgettable mountain biking trip and stayed connected with us for the remainder of our trip. Their professionalism, care, and attention to detail were exceptional. Whether it was picking us up promptly at our hotel, anticipating our needs, helping us navigate challenges on the biking trails, or staying connected via WhatsApp throughout our stay, Pepian & the team truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. This trip was easily one of the most memorable family adventures we’ve ever had, and we are deeply grateful to Old Town Outfitters for delivering an extraordinary experience!

I got a workout. There was one tough uphill and I wasn’t in the best shape for it. The tour was great. I learned a lot, got to eat some chocolate, got to taste some wine, and got a workout.

Old Town Outfitters was the best tour to book for the Acatenango volcano tour. I booked them as a referral from a few friends that had gone with them earlier this year and it was the best decision for my trip to Guatemala. Their office was extremely easy to work with and having a shop in Antigua really came in handy. I had made a booking error when I originally reserved but their receptionist Tamy was extremely supportive and helpful in making sure I took the right trip. It was also nice being able to purchase some items I missed in packing from them directly. My guide Luis was extremely knowledgable about the volcano and showed us areas that other tour groups weren't privy to. He made great meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and even made sure we had a secluded and scenic area to enjoy our lunch. Other tour groups tend to be 30-60 people and as a group that's capped off at 8 he knew exactly where to take us to avoid these rowdy groups and enjoy the scenery around. He took some of the best photos of me that I'd gotten my entire trip. Last their camp is unmatched. There were few other camps in groups I had talked to that had such a straight on view of the volcano. All of the equipment was grade A and made for a comfortable experience despite camping and going through so much physical activity leading into the night. Book with them you won't regret it.
