Guatemala City → Antigua Guatemala: key facts

Antigua Guatemala from Guatemala City Airport (GUA) by private transfer: €55 per car (1–3 people) or €80 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 34 km via CA-9 Sur and RD GUA-16, roughly 50 min when traffic is light and 50–60 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the public arrivals area on the first (ground) level of the La Aurora terminal, after immigration, baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Antigua Guatemala, the former colonial capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, lies in the Panchoy valley west of Guatemala City, below the Agua, Fuego and Acatenango volcanoes. From La Aurora the road distance is about 34 km. The route leaves the city westwards along Calzada Roosevelt and the Inter-American Highway, climbs to San Lucas Sacatepéquez and then descends on a winding mountain road into the valley. Traffic leaving the capital and on the descent can be slow, especially on Friday evenings and weekends, when many city residents drive to Antigua.

The town keeps its grid of cobbled streets around the Parque Central, where the Cathedral of San José and the Palace of the Captains General stand. The yellow Santa Catalina Arch on 5a Avenida Norte leads towards La Merced church, and the Cerro de la Cruz viewpoint rises just north of the centre. Hotels range from the central blocks to Jocotenango and San Pedro las Huertas on the edges. The cobbles and narrow streets make driving slow, and some central streets are closed to cars on busy days, so the driver stops as close to the address as allowed.

Public transport: The municipal Transmetro bus network serves the city itself; reaching it from the terminal involves a walk and changes.
