A mess. Not recommended this Clark Tours agency
We had 3 free hours in Guatemala City and thought we would take a Taxi from our Hotel (Barceló) to go to see the most basic things of the city: Plaza de Armas (or the Constitution) with its Government Palace and Cathedral; the Relief Map; Plaza de la Republica; Plaza de España, lightly travel the old town and the main arteries (Avenida de la Reforma and Avenida de las Américas) by car. In the same Hotel we were recommended to hire a tour with this agency (Clark) that has a position there in the same lobby of the Hotel. The girl who attended us and who charged us 101 US dollars for each of us, repeatedly told us that the guide was on arrival with her vehicle (in total, we waited more than 45 minutes). The guide decided that there wasn't much time and we went round. We toured Reformation like three times; the Americas twice: we toured the cathedral twice. And the tour was reduced to approximately 2 hours and a quarter. You didn’t come to the Plaza de la republica; you didn’t come to the map in Relief; you didn’t come to the Pinula aqueduct. 6 different services were contracted with Clark Tours (Airport Transfer to Barceló Hotel; Airport Transfer Guatemala / Flores Flight; Tour de Tikal; Flores Transfer; Flores Boat Tour; Airport Transfer Flores / Guatemala Flight). Transfers to Flores worked well; on boat tour and both airport transfers. The first day we weren’t even picked up at the airport to take us to the Hotel and when we called Marianne to say there was no one at the airport waiting for us, she called us liars. I do not recommend this agency at all.
Response from the operator: Agradecemos sus comentarios debido a que nos ayudan cada día en ser mejores y lamentamos que su experiencia con nuestro City Tour por Ciudad de Guatemala no haya sido lo que esperaba. Nos gustaría brindarle algunas aclaraciones sobre lo sucedido: El tour fue contratado el mismo día para salir a las 12:15 p.m., con la indicación expresa de que debía finalizar antes de las 3:45 p.m. para asegurar su retorno a tiempo. Dado el tiempo disponible, nuestro equipo organizó un recorrido que incluyera los principales puntos turísticos de la ciudad dentro de la ventana de tiempo establecida en forma panoramica. Desafortunadamente, ese día había una manifestación que NO había sido anunciada en la ciudad de Guatemala que afectó la movilidad y generó atascos en el tráfico en varias partes de la ciudad. Por lo cual tuvimos que ajustarnos a las calles y avenidas donde se podía pasar y evitar las que tenían atascos causadas por la manifestación y lograr ensenarle lo más posible dentro del tiempo que se nos había dicho que podían visitar la ciudad. La Plazuela España si fue visitada, está localizada a 200 metros del hotel y está en la ruta del hotel hacia el centro histórico de la Ciudad de Guatemala. Luego se recorrió también el Centro cívico de la Ciudad en donde se encuentra localizado el Banco de Guatemala, Instituto Guatemalteco de Seguridad Social, la Municipalidad de Guatemala, el Palacio del Organismo Legislativo de Guatemala, el Teatro Nacional y el Ministerio de Finanzas Publicas. De alli se recorrio por la séptima avenida hasta llegar al Parque Central donde esta localizado el Palacio Nacional de la Cultura y la Catedral de la Ciudad de Guatemala. Desafortunadamente en la Ciudad de Guatemala no contamos con una Plaza de Armas, De ultimo se recorrio la Avenida de la Reforma y la Avenida de las Americas, para de alli terminar en su hotel tal y como fue solicitado. Lo único que no nos dio tiempo de hacer fue el Mapa en Relieve debido al problema que habia con el tráfico y la limitación de tiempo que se nos asignó. Con respecto a su traslado de llegada, nuestro Representante de Aeropuerto si estuvo presente en el aeropuerto en el horario establecido y los esperaba con un cartel a la salida de la aduana. Al no identificarse Ustedes con el al salir de aduanas, se comunicó con el hotel y fue informado que Ustedes habían tomado el shuttle del hotel para llegar al mismo. Esperamos poder servirle en un futuro próximo a Usted en Guatemala nuevamente.

Great tour, recommended!
Nice tour that I was able to enjoy solo. My tour guy was very informative and patient with me as I enjoyed souvenir shopping. Highly recommended as all day tours can be a lot for a short vacation and this was perfect.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review, we are very happy you enjoyed your Chichicastenango visit!!

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Half Day Guatemala City Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Guatemala City.
How much does Half Day Guatemala City Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $32 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Guatemala City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Half Day Guatemala City Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Guatemala City is not rushed.
Is Half Day Guatemala City Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Guatemala City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Guatemala City Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Half Day Guatemala City Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Half Day Guatemala City Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Guatemala City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Guatemala City and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half Day Guatemala City Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Guatemala City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Guatemala City?
+
On Outty we rank every Guatemala City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Shuttle in Guatemala, Guatemala City Tour, Private Ground Transfer Airport - Antigua Guatemala. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Guatemala City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Guatemala City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
