David ha hecho un tour cultural y gastronómico muy interesante. Mientras te muestra la comida típica del lugar te explica todos los aspectos culturales de toda la diversidad que convive en Xela. Muchas gracias por el tour, agradezco enormemente que lo haya realizado a pesar de ser la única turista que haya acudido.

Thanks for the tour. It was really nice. We learnt so much about the streetfood, we tried a lot of things and David told us a lot about the historical buildings. It was a really really interesting. We would do it again.

David provided a fantastic overview of both the history and current culture of Xela. He took us through the Mayan market, Catholic church, through the Parque Central, and the surrounding area. He was a wealth of interesting information and the tour was a highlight of our time in Xela. Would highly recommend.

I enjoyed the tour with David a lot! There was only me and the rain. So I apreciated very much that he did the tour only for me, also under this weather conditions. It was very intersting for me to get to know Davids perspective on the city and also life in general in Guatemala! It was great, thank you!
