The first formal city of Guatemala was Ciudad Vieja. The first Spanish settlement after the colonization was Iximché and then decided to move, they did to the Panchoy Valley, where Ciudad Vieja is located.

Visit the church, which once was the first cathedral of Central America. Take some lovely photos here and hop on your ATVs to go to the next destination.

San Pedro Las Huertas is a town with a relaxed atmosphere and beautiful scenery. Our stop at this point will be to visit a jade factory where we will have the privilege of seeing the process of polishing a jade stone, shaping it, and having a product such as bracelets, necklaces, earrings, items to decorate our home, and more.
Jade comes in different colors such as emerald green, dark green, black, pink, lilac, and white. We will see green jade.

This town is well known for producing an abundance of loquats. From this fruit, a variety of goods are produced, including alcohol, jams, and even bread. We'll stop at a chocolate factory where we'll learn how to grow chocolate fruit to get cocoa beans, which are then used to make goods like hot chocolate, chocolate bars, cocoa tea, and more. We'll also visit the nispero (loquat) museum.

We'll start our journey back to your hotel. Thanks for choosing us!
