Very fun experience and you keep your art work.

After a short tour through the store's museum for a history of Guatemalan jade, we were led to the jade workshop. The guide helped us pick our jade color and shape pattern. He then instructed in cutting and polishing the jade. Even with modern machinery it was hard work, but fun. One of the highlights of our trip to Guatemala.
Fun

We had an amazing experience!!! We were paired with Sassy (sp?) and Oswaldo (sp?). Sassy was our tour guide and went over the differences of jade with us and helped guide the way of picking our jade and shape. Oswaldo has been working with jade 30+ years and he showed us how to carve and shave down the jade as well as shine it. It was an overall great experience that we got a souvineer with at the end! Sassy and oswaldo then walked us over to the near by capuchin as church to see some Antiguan history.

We did the jade carving on the day we were leaving Guatemala. Had an evening flight so did the morning class. We should've done this earlier! It was so much fun to learn about the history and culture of jade, then we got to make our own jewelry (jade only). Reach out to the TO - there are actually more class varieties available. If you are looking to shop for some jade, check their store out as well. Lots of selection and the price range is better than most other jade factories/stores in Antigua.
Fun Experience

I wouldn't say this was exactly "carving" Jade as much as it was polishing. It was still a good experience but I was expecting a different end product. I ended up with a fairly nice sized teardrop shaped pendent which was probably worth the $50 paid. It is a beautiful store and you do learn about the Jade mined in this area.
You won't regret it!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
