Day Tours in Nahualá
Cooking & weaving cultural class from Lake Atitlan
Discover the authentic local culture of Guatemala on this tour where you will not only learn about gastronomy but also about the region's weaving art. The tour starts from Lake Atitlán, where we begin the ascent to the town of Nahualá by vehicle. Upon arriving at this picturesque town, one of the most charming in the country, you will visit its central church and local market, where the cultural journey begins.
During your experience, you will have the opportunity to create the famous traditional cooking stone, as well as cook your own local dish with the guidance of an ancestral cook. Finally, you will be delighted by the weaving process that the Nahualá community has practiced for generations. It is not an easy weaving technique, so it may be a bit challenging at first, but it is definitely worth trying. After your cultural tour, you'll return to Lake Atitlán.
