We meet in Antigua and dive straight into the chaos. A walk through the Central Market where the day starts with a cold beer for a little liquid courage. You’ll get a playful scavenger hunt packed with “I Spy” challenges and harmless dares designed to pull you out of spectator mode and into the action. This isn’t a passive tour, you’re part of the scene. From there we enter the colorful madness of the bus terminal, and instead of holding your hand, we teach you how to find the right chicken bus yourself. You'll be riding like a local in no time, confident to travel Guatemala on the public transportation. The bus takes us to a local Mayan village outside of Antigua. Hang on for a wild ride!

This isn’t a normal bus ride — it’s a crash course in riding Guatemala like a local. We don’t just put you on a chicken bus, we teach you how to use it with confidence. By the end of the ride, you’ll know how to navigate public transportation like you live here, plus hear the wild history and fun facts behind Guatemala’s most iconic rolling artwork. The bus drops us in Santa María de Jesús, a Mayan village just outside Antigua where tourism hasn’t smoothed the edges. The streets are packed with color, culture, and everyday life — and chances are, you won’t see another tourist. We explore the market and build a picnic from fresh local produce, eating the way families do, right in the middle of the action. And of course, we make YOU find the chicken bus to get us back to Antigua! It’s loud, authentic, a little chaotic, and completely unforgettable.
