Discover the cultural beauty of the colonial capital of Antigua, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on this comprehensive full day adventure. Settle in for a scenic 90-minute, narrated drive through Guatemala's lowlands, where you'll be treated to views of volcanoes, sugar cane plantations, and fields of grazing cattle. Arrive at the colonial jewel of the Americas, for a walking tour where you'll see verdant Central Park surrounded by landmark buildings, the cathedral with its ornate façade, the church and convent of La Merced, and the unique hotel-museum Casa Santo Domingo. Enjoy lunch at Casa Santo Domingo, a restored convent that now houses a five-star hotel and cultural center. Conclude the day at the famous Jade Museum and Factory. Here you will see Guatemalan craftsmen cut and polish the stones following the traditions of their ancestors. Visit the gift shop to purchase pieces of exceptional design.
