I really enjoyed this tour! We went to a Mayan textile museum in San Antonio Aguas Calientes where we learned about the village traditions and could compare different guipiles and patterns from across Guatemala. We also visited the market and other locations. If you are interested in learning about textiles, this is a great tour!

Nos tocó Galileo, una persona muy cordial y buen acompañante. Sin embargo, esperábamos un poco más de historias de los lugares que visitamos.
