Avenida La Reforma

At the end of the Las Americas avenue you will find the Obelisco, which also connects with The Reforma Avenue that it's considered one of the main boulevards of Guatemala City. Today many of the residential homes have been replaced by modern building and it is now considered a business and commercial district. Also a cycleway was built along the avenue in 2013. Part of the Avenida Reforma is closed to traffic on Sunday mornings, as part of the Pasos y Pedales program implemented by the Guatemala City Municipality. Throughout the 20th century, more sculptures were added, honoring diverse people such as Henry Dunant, founder of the Red Cross; Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla and Benito Juárez, Mexican leaders; José Joaquín Palma and Rafael Álvarez Ovalle, creators of the national anthem of Guatemala; and Miguel Ángel Asturias, winner of the 1967 Nobel Prize in Literature. Other notable monuments are the Monumento a la Madre, which honors motherhood; the Star of David, located in the Israel Plaza; and several statues of animals such as lions, bulls, and wild boars

Visiting the markets area was great we had a family member who had limited walking ability so Winston our guide arranged for her to be picked up at various spots that shortened her walking. Winston was extremely knowledgeable and added lots of value to our tour.
Visit many interesting sites

We toured Guatemala City and Cayala Ciudad. Ruben and Miguel were amazing! Ruben is a wealth of information. Unfortunately, many of the places Ruben attempted to take us were closed due to the elections. Despite this, we still had a great time!
Food and History!

This was an enjoyable tour! We had Winston Cuc as a tour guide. He was great showing us the different areas, getting out the van walking with us. We even sat and had a cup of coffee. The restaurant we chose to experience was GREAT! The food options were vast & delicious!

This was the perfect thing to do if you want to get a good overview about GUA-City! We saw all the places to be and must know. Cesar was the perfect guide as he knows so much about „his“ city and he is able to see what his customers need and want to know. The tour was flexible, fun and unforgettable.
Excellent choice
