Chichicastenango and Iximché One Day Tour From Guatemala City: Iximche and Chichicastenango

Explore 2 Guatemalan cities on this full-day tour. See indigenous people in Iximché. Visit the famous market of Chichicastenango and see the beautiful sights of the Santo Tomás church.
Today's trip combines Mayan influence and living culture, and you'll visit sites that will immerse you in the area’s enthralling history. We will begin the day with a transfer from your hotel in Guatemala City or Antigua Guatemala, to the archaeological site of Iximché. Upon arrival we will take a guided visit to Iximché: the first capital of Guatemala. Learn from watching the indigenous people that still visit Iximché, and if we are very lucky, we will witness a real Mayan ceremony that takes place in Iximché.

We will then transfer to the open market of Chichicastenango. Here, you can explore the indigenous market and witness the incessant exchange of fruits, vegetables and handicrafts between local people and foreigners. This charming local market really does offer just about everything—you can even shop for wood products, ceramics and the sorts of gifts that the Mayan priests offer on their pre-hispanic altars.

We will then move on to visit Santo Tomás church, where the Popol Vuh (The sacred book of the Maya) was found. You’ll have time for lunch (own expense) when finished, you will be returned to your hotel for a much needed rest!
