Guatemala's Santo Maya and homemade liquor

Discover a unique cultural experience in Guatemala that combines spirituality, history and tradition. This private tour will take you from Antigua Guatemala to San Andrés Itzapa to visit the San Simon Shrine, also known as Maximón or Rilaj Mam, one of the most representative figures of Guatemalan religious syncretism. During the visit you will be able to observe, with respect, the ceremonies performed by Mayan spiritual guides and learn more about their beliefs and rituals. Then we will visit the house of Ana, a fourth generation merchant dedicated to the sale of cusha, an artisanal liquor made from sugar cane. There you will learn about the history of this traditional drink and its cultural importance. The visit takes place in a family home, not in a distillery or factory. The experience ends with an optional lunch in Parramos, before returning to Antigua Guatemala.
