Arrive in Guatemala City and venture to Antigua where we’ll settle-in to our hotel and enjoy a delicious welcome dinner featuring live marimba music. The following day we’ll head out on guided tour of Antigua meandering through the cobblestone streets and Antigua’s colonial gems. We’ll then make a visit to a women-owned weaving cooperative where we’ll have a hands-on workshop with the local craftswomen. Later in the evening enjoy a free dinner in Antigua. The next day, we’ll head out to a local coffee plantation to learn how coffee is produced from crop to cup. After lunch on the farm, head back to Antigua for free time before an interactive cooking class with a market tour. The final day of our adventure will start with a hands-on chocolate workshop before returning to Guatemala City for our flights home.
