Victoria was our tour guide, and the absolute nicest person! We got picked up at our hotel and learned a lot about Guatemala on our way out to the ruins. Quick stop for hot chocolate along the way. Victoria toured us through Iximche, sharing a lot of information about the structures and what they were used for. We also saw the place they still host rituals. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!
