About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Alejandro H0 contributionsDay trip to lake Atitlan and more.Nice fun experience, a big thank you to Byron & Jorge our driver for showing us Guatemala and bringing us back safely. Very nice guides. Enjoyed learning about chocolate, coffee, medicinal plants, and how they texture/weave garments in Panajachel. Long day but worth it, good views.Written February 1, 2025
- 584aldos0 contributionsIncredibleNature, History, Archeology. Good agency, nice guides, almost always on time, most of the hotels OK.Written December 24, 2024
- jennadF7661ZS0 contributions10/10 RecommendWhat an amazing experience!!!! I went with one other friend and we had a fun and comfortable experience. Carmen was our guide and she was AMAZING!!!! She is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, kind, and hilarious! Cant recommend this enough. We had this tour in the middle of a two week trip so it was a great intermission between some intense activities planned. Wonderful way to see some areas between antigua / flores.Written December 12, 2024
- charlesf5370 contributionsFun day tripThe lake was definitely worth seeing and our guide Mirko did a terrific job of shepherding our small motley band of tourists through the colorful maze of San Juan, boats, Panajachel, etc. His commentaries on the town and the culture was interesting as well. His recommendation for lunch at Don Rodrigo in Panajachel was helpful too that was very pleasant.Written December 1, 2024
- MorganBDT0 contributionsBeautiful hiking trip!This was a great hike with incredible views in a beautiful part of the country. The journey from Guatemala city to the volcano was smooth and comfortable. I would say the hike is accessible even for novice hikers, but still gives you a good workout if you are pushing the pace. Peter was a great guide, and very knowledgeable about the area. We got to climb over a (cooled) lava field, some parts of which ("chimneys") were still steaming - you can stick your hand in them and feel the heat and humidity from the vegetation that got trapped underneath the lava. There were wildflowers in lots of different colors, and we saw some very interesting insects and spiders, including "hummingbird moths" (large moths that look and behave like hummingbirds, hovering from flower to flower - note that the moth in the picture is a different one).Written October 28, 2024
- juliasK4421YJ0 contributionsTouring Antigua GuatemalaWe were picked up from our hotel in Guatemala City. Our tour guide was Mr. Mirco , he was very knowledgeable and fun . We started our tour by driving to Antigua and Mr. Mirco started by explaining us the history of Antigua Guatemala , our first stop was el cerro de la cruz , where we had an amazing view of the city , we got amazing pictures and then headed to the coffee plantation where he explained us the process of the making of coffee , we got a taste of the great coffee as well , after that we stop at different spots that were part of our tour and Mr. Mirco made it very interesting and enjoyable . We ended our tour by having lunch at a traditional Guatemala restaurant . Overall it was a tour that exceded our expectations and it’s highly recommended . Special thanks to Mr. Mirco that made our tour very special .Written September 30, 2024
- Z7531QQdavidw0 contributionsVisit now before it’s lost to developers!Mirko was our driver and guide for three days. Mirko was a very good driver on dangerous roads. He also has a relaxed personality that made for enjoyable conversations in English. Just so you know, it is a 6 hr drive from Antigua to the ParkHotel. Most of your time will be spent getting to your destinations. Once you leave the hustle and bustle of Guatemala City, you are in for a visual treat as the central highlands are stunning and diverse. Lanquin Cave is a national park, but it is poorly maintained and quite dangerous because you are walking on very slippery wet rocks or wooden stairs. Enjoy it but be very careful because a bad slip will quickly end your vacation. On day two you have the option to visit another wet, slippery cave or visit an orchid private reserve. I highly recommend the orchid private reserve. It’s run by three generations of a single-family who saw the clearcutting deforestation around them and decided to protect these little fragile flowers that grow on the trunks. Guatemala’s central mountains boast 800 species of orchid, but they are threatened by the same destruction that is putting Semuc Champy at risk. The jungle and karst pools of Semuc are incredibly beautiful and worth the journey. Sadly, developers are clearing the jungle to make way for a new paved road to this small and fragile site. Once the road is complete expect uncontrolled development that will absolutely destroy the environment. Monkeys, Quetzals, toucans and wild mammals are already gone. The government of Guatemala clearly does not value their environmental resources, so enjoy them while you can. Do stop for traditional candies made from cardamom.Written August 20, 2024
- G8918TEcatherined0 contributionsFriendly and fun tourHighly recommend. Wonderful day with our tour guide Diego who was very knowledgeable and friendly. Such a wonderful day! Got to learn a lot about Guatemala, Mayan cultures, and what the locals like to do and go!Written August 6, 2024
- Kirstenferguson120 contributionsIximche was the highlight of this tripVery good tour just not sure if Chichicastenango is worth the 3 hour drive. Iximche was fantastic however. Our guide was very good and knowledgableWritten July 22, 2024
- katiez6540 contributionsGate 1 : not the best. Rip off for solo travels. Accused me of lying. Unbelievablewent with Gate 1. They accused me of lying about when my flight landed and why no one was there to pick me up. They told me my flights "would have been better" had I booked with Gate 1. I booked my flights with Gate 1. This trip was canceled by Gate 1 in November when I purchased with a special single supplement waiver; I rescheduled and they did not honor my waiver, so the trip cost me significantly more. NEVER AGAIN GATE 1.Written June 18, 2024
- ceciliat9300 contributionsPoor logistics!!!Tour guide Luis and driver were excellent. The logistics suck! My ride to airport (ended up being scheduled for 4 AM) arrived 30 minutes later. Then we spent well over 2 hours waiting for flight to take off. Tour guide was unaware that our returning flight wasn't leaving until 9 PM. They dumped us off in Flores for 3 hours in the 104 degree weather (!!!) with 38% humidity around 4 PM to walk around. I did not want to sit around in a bar for 3 hours and I was done with souvenier shopping within 30 minutes. Get your act together. The advertisement made it sound like it would be around a 12 hour experience total. It ended up being a 19 hour experience. Do not use them until they get their logistical act together.Written June 4, 2024
- O9243GHsharons0 contributionsMagical day of Guatemalan culture on the LakeWe loved our trip to Lake Atitlán our driver was very knowledgeable, helpful and patient with us while we shopped and stayed longer and still got all our tour highlights done. We are a busy family of five and we loved speeding across the Lake and visiting all the merchants. Quality tour all around.Written May 22, 2024
- lucherylow0 contributionsMirko was an excellent guideEnjoyed our tour with Mirko who spoke very good English. He gave us many facts about the history, culture and politics of Guatemala. The tour duration was good, with half day spent in Antigua and the other half part at the Iximche archeological ruins.Written May 22, 2024
- denisecP3367QJ0 contributionsGuatemalan cooking class in Antigua GuatemalaToday we went to a cooking class. We booked this through a la Carta tours in Antigua Guatemala. The company is Foodietenango, guatemala. This is an excellent class. They taught us how to make guacamole, roasted Salsa, Chicken pepian and a dessert made with mashed plantains and stuffed with chocolate, beans and deep fried. All the recipes were from his mom and grandma. They cooked for us at his home. This was by far the best cooking class we've done. They picked us up at the hotel and we took a tuk tuk back.Written May 21, 2024
- keeyanaw20240 contributionsGreat Tour of Lake Atitlan!We truly enjoy our lake Atitlan tour with Gustavo. He was a great guide! He was informative. The boat ride was absolutely beautiful! I would definitely recommend this service to anyone that wants to experience the culture and see beautiful view of the lake and surrounding volcanosWritten May 1, 2024

We went to visit Capuchinas Monastery. You may hire an english speaking guide and it was a very interesting experience. Dress casual with comfortable shoes. Antigua has streets built with stones. Bring your camera and be also prepared to visit the colorful market.

Hi, Could a single person take the Antigua City tour on Saturday February 23? When we tried to check availability it said a minimum of two persons is required.

Do you pick up travelers from the port at Puerto Quetzal. We will be there for one day on April 30. I am not thrilled by any of the tours offered by Princess and would like to travel with you if that is possible. It would be my wife and I.
