5.00It was such a pleasure to have Gerardo show us around Antigua. He was very knowledgeable of the history of the area and made sure to answer any questions we had. He was so flexible that he was willing to meet us a a different starting location and completely customized our tour based on our interests. We were a family of 4 and when our 5 year old started feeling ill, he was absolutely eager to accommodate us. He guided us to the pharmacy and explained our issue to the pharmacist and even took us to get the 5yo a bite to eat. While we thoroughly enjoyed the tour as Antigua is a beautiful place, it was also a pleasure to hang out with Gerardo for a couple of hours. He's a sweet soul and we'll look for him when we're back in Antigua.
Lovely way to spend a few hours in Antigua

4.00You get a good overview of the history of the area and the impact of the Spanish, the current culture (I took the tour shorter after Lent started), and a bit of geological info about jade. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly.
