Santiago Tour & Maximon Shrine

On a walking tour today during your holiday to Guatemala, visit the house of Maximon, the Mayan folk saint who moves annually with the selection of his new caretaker. A shaman may be performing a ritual for a local follower or two gathered at Maximón's candle-lit altar. After visiting Maximon you will visit the local church and learn about the history of this very traditional town and see the market and learn about the distinctive textiles and primitive art that is famous in this area.
