El tour con Laura fue delicioso. Como la laguna estaba seca, en vez de esa parte del tour, hicimos un tour del cacao y subimos a un mirador. Yo estuve sola con Laura, y me explicó con mucha pasión todo sobre su pueblo y sus costumbres. En el mercado, me explicaron cómo se teje y cómo son los trajes tradicionales. En el tour del cacao, hice mi propia taza de cacao que pude mezclar con diferentes especias precoloniales. El mirados fue muy chulo también. En todo momento me sentí acogida y acompañada. Un tour totalmente recomendable para conocer algo un poco menos turístico y más auténtico que la propia Antigua. Muy recomendable!!

Ayer pasamos una mañana súper especial Laura y yo. Os recomiendo hacer este free tour, tanto si vais en grupo como si vais solos. En mi caso fui sola y me encantó. Es un free tour diferente y muy completo porque se visita San Antonio Aguas Calientes, el mercado tradicional donde puedes probarte un traje típico de boda mientras te explican sobre su proceso de elaboración. Después, se visita la laguna de Quisilimate, que está a 10 minutos andando del pueblo y es una pasada cómo está de bonito. Lesbie te recibe con las manos abiertas para mostrarte la laguna y su huerto, es verdaderamente precioso. Además da la opción de comer allí o de llevarte tu propia comida para pasar un rato muy agradable y placentero. Os recomiendo 100% este tour, no os arrepentiréis!!
