Luckiest bus ride of our trip - We met Wilson by chance on the bus and instantly sparked into amazing conversation. We then joined him a few days later for a walking tour of Antigua. We learnt so much about the history of the town, as well as Mayan tradition and worldviews. We can't reccomend him as a guide highly enough, he is fantastic

Amazing! Best Tour Guide in Guatemala - We hired Wilson to support a study abroad trip in Guatemala and it was the best decision!! Wilson Calí is an amazing tour guide: he is knowledgeable, flexible, passionate, super friendly, and great at improvising and finding solutions quickly. He saved our trip on multiple occasions, has a wide network of connections, and speaks perfect English. He is a phenomenal English - Spanish translator and also speaks Kachiquel (local Mayan language). Sharing Guatemala’s history and culture with visitors is his passion, and all of our study abroad students loved meeting him. He planned creative activities for us, and taught a wonderful class about Mayan culture. He allowed us to have many special moments during our trip due to his translation skills. 100% recommend!

Your Guide to the Heart of Guatemaya - Wil is really your best option for a guide in Guatemala. Wil cares deeply about his culture, and will give you a better understanding of the historical and culture background. Wil generously shares his Mayan heritage with you, going far beyond other guides. He's friendly, funny, open minded, and speaks great English. You will love Wil, and he will love you. Such a generous heart, and a sharp mind that will help you to open to the Heart of Guatemaya. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Amazing experience! - Wilson is so professional and thoughtful. Has a great understanding of Guatemalan culture and history. Guide trips vary- we did a tour of the market, churches and a small "food tour" of some of the local eateries. He has great energy and I highly suggest a tour with him if you have the chance.

Enjoyable times in Antigua! - Our group really enjoyed seeing Antigua with Wil! He is very knowledgeable about the history of the area and of Guatemala as a whole. I felt like I was better able to understand the culture as we walked with him. I've been to Antigua twice before and this time around got to see some amazing markets and sites that I had never been to before. I would definitely recommend the walking tour with Wil! He is very charismatic and personable and super fun to be around!
