You'll be picked up from your hotel in Guatemala City and transferred to Antigua Guatemala to begin your approximately three-hour tour. We'll begin our tour by visiting the Church of La Merced, built in Guatemalan ultra-baroque style and featuring two bell towers. On the church's facade, at its top, is a sculpture of Saint Pedro Nolasco, founder of the Mercedarian Order. We'll continue our tour by visiting the Arco de Santa Catalina, built to connect the nuns between cloisters to avoid being seen. Next, we'll head to Central Park, where we'll see important buildings and the Las Sirenas fountain. We'll visit Tanque La Unión, one of the city's most iconic laundries, opened in 1853. Lunch (not included). Transfer to Guatemala City.
