Iconic Yellow Church + Mayan Market + Small Town: Cultural Tour

5.0(2)Rated 5.0 out of 5 from 2 reviews6 hFree cancellationBy Guat2do Travel Experiences
Yellow Church of San Andrés Xecul

About this activity

During this tour, we will take you to know 3 different towns. You will explore the largest market in Guatemala, will go to the most colorful church, and end the tour by going to a small but lovely town.

Each location holds something special that we want to show you and hope you like it as much as we do or even more.

The first place to visit will be San Francisco El Alto and its market which is the largest one in Guatemala. Usually, it takes around 6 hours to go through all of it (that is not the case on this tour, we will be there just a fraction of all that time). Then, we will visit the famous church of San Andrés Xecul, an icon of Guatemala and a representation of religious syncretism. In the end, we will visit Salcajá, a small but very charming town with lots of history and beautiful places to visit.

This is a tour you don´t want to miss, so reserve your ticket, and we will take you to one of the greatest traveling experiences of them all.
