Your Travel Experience with Bamba
Begin your day with a convenient pick-up and prepare for a journey into the heart of Guatemala’s indigenous heritage.
Enjoy a relaxing journey through colorful scenery and explore a world of tradition and color at the biggest and liveliest market in Central America.
Explore busy streets brimming with locally grown produce, handcrafted goods, traditional fabrics, and flowers in the largest market. Admire people in their elaborately woven Mayan attire, hear the sounds of the indigenous K'iche' language, and sense the energy of centuries-old barter and commerce between locals and tourists.
Feel the energy and ancient customs come alive in the market square, where the sights and sounds capture the true essence of Mayan daily life. Here, you’ll find artisans skillfully selling their wares and experience an authentic blend of Mayan and Spanish cultures.
Step inside the legendary 16th-century Santo Tomas Church, built atop a 2,500-year-old Mayan temple. Witness the rich spiritual life blending Catholic and Mayan rituals, and discover where the sacred Popol Vuh was found—the revered book of Mayan creation myths.
After a day rich in sights, sounds, and stories, enjoy a restful ride back to your accommodation, your mind filled with the unforgettable flavors of the highlands.
