• El Viejo Café - With nearly 500 years of Spanish influence, the techniques and various baking recipes have been refined and embraced, leading to the widespread popularity of bakeries found almost every two corners. Notable stops include “Cuchi Cuchi,” “El Viejo Café,” “Doña Luisa Xicotencatl,” and “Santa Clara.”
• Street Market - Corn was domesticated 8,000 years ago, transforming history and becoming a cornerstone of gastronomy. It’s essential to savor products made with this key ingredient of Mayan culture, such as Tamalitos, Chuchitos, Dobladas, Pupusas, Tamales, Tortillas, or Tostadas. Vegetarian and vegan options are available.

Indulge in the exotic fruits of Guatemala, nurtured in the country’s fertile volcanic soil and ideal climate. When sampling seasonal fruits, consider trying 2 or 3 from a variety like Rambután, Chico, Anona, Paterna, Pitaya, Zapote, Aguacate, or Local Banana. These fruits offer a unique and refreshing flavor that will delight your palate and highlight Guatemala’s natural abundance.

• Mercado Central Antigua Guatemala - “Comedores” or “Eaters” in English, can be found inside local markets or in hidden family-owned spots known to locals, where traditional dishes such as Pepián, Hilachas, and Estofado can be enjoyed. These are thick, rich sauces or soups, comparable to stew textures, typically served with rice and handmade corn tortillas. Immerse yourself in history while uncovering the secrets of these culturally significant meals.
• Street Market - Sample traditional Guatemalan sweets, choosing 1 or 2 from options like Tamarindo balls with sugar, Guava sweet, Canillitas de Leche, or other recipes depending on your friends’ selection. These sweet treats have a rich history influenced by Spanish traditions, as Spaniards introduced sugar cane to the region.
• Tanque de la Union - Visit famous plazas in Antigua Guatemala, which will serve as a reference for your stay in this charming city. Consider including La Merced, located just outside Iglesia de la Merced, San Francisco El Grande, Tanque de La Unión, and others, where traditional Atol (a hot drink made of corn or seeds), Rellenitos (plantain flour with sweet bean sauce inside and fried), and more surprises can be tasted.
• Arch Street - Our final stop, but certainly not the least, will be based on your preference, where you can toast with either Local Beer or Local Coffee at one of our favorite coffee shops, Kaldi & Kapra. In any of these settings, there will be the perfect opportunity to share suggestions for pubs, restaurants, or any other interests you may have for the remainder of your trip.
