Historical and natural bike tour in Guatemala City

(1 reviews)

2 to 3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Portuguese and 2 more

I have decided to make the bicycle my means of transportation in my daily life, so I have been able to get to know the city in detail and it is precisely what I invite you to know: a green, modern, cosmopolitan and super important, historical city.

In addition to being a bicycle and nature enthusiast, I am a general history lover and a superhost with more than 1,200 reviews on Airbnb, so I would like to share with you my experience, as well as relevant data from both Guatemala and all the countries represented in squares.

In addition, I studied tourism business administration at university, so I plan to put all my academic and professional experience at your service.

The cycle path will take us to places full of nature and historical value.

Join us!
