5.00Hugo discussed the old city layout and we went to see some churches ruined by earthquakes and some that are being rebuilt. We also saw some catacombs (with human remains) and the Santo Domingo church was a highlight. A perfect pace fir everyone.

5.00e had an amazing catacombs tour in Antigua, Guatemala with our guide, Giovanny. He took us through several different churches and catacombs, and each stop was fascinating in its own way. Giovanny was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about the history. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and really brought the experience to life. We enjoyed every part of the tour and appreciated how thoughtfully it was paced, with plenty of time to take everything in and ask questions. This was a unique and memorable way to learn about Antigua’s history, and we highly recommend this tour especially if you get Giovanny as your guide!
Great Guide and Tour

5.00The tour guide had a lot of info to share. The tour covers a lot of ground in Antigua, including city history and info about the churches, in addition to catacombs and crypts. Many of the sites visited and information shared are not things one would find just strolling around Antigua by one’s self, so the cost of the tour is worth the price. Note: This is a tour that moves quickly, it covers a lot of ground in a short time. There was little sitting during the 3 1/2 hours. I was recovering from a lung illness at the time I took this tour and honestly had a tough time keeping up with the group towards the end. Still, the tour was worth it!
Incredibly misleading tour.

1.00Look at the first picture on Viator. The image shows the interior of the Catacombs of the Basilica and Convent of San Francisco in Lima, Peru, which is known for its extensive ossuary. This site holds the remains of an estimated 25,000 to 70,000 people and was used until 1810. Pleasant two hours. Got stuck in a Jade sales Pitch. Paid for 3.5 hours. Skip this one folks.
Giovanni was a wonderful...
