The tour starts with a visit to the glass factory COPAVIC, where you will see glass being blown. It's a careful and intricate process.

The tour then continues to Zunil to visit an ingenuous cemetery, the weaving cooperative of San Ana, the colonial church, and the Mayan saint “Maximon.”

Next, you'll have time to relax at the hot spring of Fuentes Georginas. This hot spring is volcanically heated and surrounded by a beautiful cloud forest. It's an easy place to melt into relaxation.

The tour ends in Almolonga, one of the most productive agricultural towns in Guatemala.

Attractions Visited

Fuentes Georginas Hot Springs

These gorgeous springs offer thermally heated pools just outside of the Zuníl Volcano. Two journalists happened upon this spot in 1902, and it’s gradually grown into one of Guatemala’s top destinations for relaxation. The water here isn't too hot, but pleasantly warm and rich with minerals. Besides the pools, visitors can also explore an ecological park and a cave used by the Maya for religious rituals.
