Chichicastenango Beyond the Market Private Tour

More than venturing into the biggest indigenous market in Central America, you'll see what goes on before it opens and dine with a local family to fully experience the way of life at Chichicastenango. Meet your guide at your hotel for the pleasant ride around winding mountain roads. After hotel check-in at Chichi, follow your guide into the vast market for a behind-the-scenes peek at its increasingly busy loading areas. Watch as farmers and artisans arrive from outlying villages, stocking their stalls with a dizzying assortment of merchandise and striking deals with the vendors who will sell their goods. Afterward, explore nearby streets to witness the daily routines of Chichi residents, noting the traditional clothing (traje) worn by many of the locals. Hike up the hill to the Pascual Abaj, where you may see shamans (Maya spiritual leaders) performing rituals. In the evening, a family working to preserve the community's indigenous traditions welcomes you into their home for an evening of food and culture. A traditional dance wearing colourful costumes and wooden masks is presented, portraying Conquistadors and the Maya they encountered. Share a traditional dinner with the family, sampling potent cusha (Maya liquor) if you dare!

Chichicastenango Market in Guatemala 2022

The best of Guatemala all in 5 fantastic days - Atitlan, Chichicastenango Antigua and more.

With a new direct flight from JFK to Guatemala City, it is easier then ever to go explore this exceptional Central American gem and see all the Mayan culture, vibrant colors, and taste the amazing foods. Yes there is Cocoa, yes there is Coffee, but there is so much more, from epic wildlife, to active volcanos, and darling little towns that you never want to leave. Either on boat along the shores of the Atitlan lake or down the cobbled streets of Old Antigua, Guatemala is a place you want to return to before you even leave.

Special thanks to Jet Blue, the Tourism Board of Guatemala and Get Lost Magazine for a magical trip!

It is situated at an altitude of almost 2000 m which is about 6600 feet. The town is surrounded by mountains and pine forests.

Ascanio Pignatelli Aragona Cortez was born in Rome and grew up in Turin, Italy in the early eighties at the height of “Red Brigade” terrorism. His father, the number two man at FIAT, was one of the prime targets of a communist organization bent on assassinating the heads of the capitalist society they so loathed. Ascanio was therefore a target; and consequently stripped of all freedoms and required to have a personal bodyguard and bulletproof car at all times.

This extremely dangerous and intense life soon became normal for Ascanio, and instilled upon him a taste for living life on the edge. Boredom quickly became his number one enemy; trouble his new best friend.

Throughout the rest of his adolescent years, Ascanio broke every rule he could and got expelled from every school he attended. Somehow he managed to graduate from Pepperdine University with a degree in economics in 1993 eventually landing a promissing job at Oppenheimer.

Unfortunately it was not money, but adventure that Ascanio craved and in 1997 he left the corporate world for good and pursued a career in SCUBA diving. He excelled rapidly, quickly discovering the dangerous worlds of cave and mixed gas diving.

As a SCUBA instructor he taught and led diving expeditions divers all over the Red Sea and Mexico before returning to Los Angeles to pursue documentary work.

In 2001, Ascanio created, hosted, produced and helped shoot an underwater series for the Travel Channel called Shark Chasers. That year he traveled to the worlds most shark-infested waters to hand feed, hypnotize and even ride the gentlest and most terrifying sharks on the planet.

He later discovered rock climbing and extreme mountain biking. Since 2001 Ascanio Mountain biking the most extreme terrain he can find in the western United States.

In late 2021, Ascanio left the United States to start his round the world motorcycle adventure. After crossing into Mexico where he spent two months Ascanio passed through Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua and Costa Rica.

Ascanio is currently in Central America riding his KTM 1290 super adventure R through some of the most dangerous, exotic and exciting countries to continue exploring places that are well off the beaten track and pursue his passion for extreme sports.

It looks like now Ascanio wants to take his extreme mountain biking skills and apply them to more adventurous off-road terrain. He now has his eyes set on the smaller KTM 890 adventure R and ktm 890 adventure rally motorcycles.

Ascanio is also blessed to work for one of the most amazing coaching and consulting companies in real estate, Workman Success Systems. He's been with Workman since 2018 as a senior coach and loves nothing more than to help his clients reach their lofty goals in all areas of life.

Chichicastenango: Meeting the K’iche Mayans

The Weekly Chichicastenago market is known to be Central America's largest market. But almost every country I go to claims to have Latin America's Largest Market. So I thought I'd see for myself....does Chichicastenago really have what it takes to own the crown?

Drone over Chichicastenango in Guatemala

My favorite town in Guatemala with maybe the most amazing cemetery in the the world Chichicatenango is an epic place to visit with it's sprawling market, beautiful churches, and amazing countryside making it a premiere destination in Central America and certainly Guatemala.
