Antigua snorkel cruise to Bird Island and Paradise Reef with guided reef stops, beach lobster lunch, rum punch, and hotel pickup.
“Very professional, knowledgeable and fun staff. Great training and assistance if first time snorkeling. Delicious food. We had a wonderful time.”
Day trip from San Ignacio to Tikal with a local guide, jungle wildlife, UNESCO ruins, and a local lunch for $145.
“This is one of the best tours I have ever done. Our guide, Luis Arturo, was the best guide I have ever had. He knew everything. He answered every question we had. I feel like our group got a personal experience with Tikal thanks to the knowledge Luis shared. Now for the transportation. Guatemala does not let Belize drivers to drive there. So you take a shuttle to the border, walk through, and catch the next shuttle on the Guatemala side. We get over and find our driver, Rudy, only to find out the road up ahead is closed. The operators coordinated together to make sure we got our tour.…”
Antigua Jeep Safari with cricket history, Betty’s Hope, Devil’s Bridge waves, included lunch, and Long Bay beach time.
“This tour was exceptional, offering a truly in-depth history of Antigua. The three tour guides made us feel safe and well taken care of throughout the experience.

Hike Guatemala’s active Pacaya volcano, then unwind at Kawilal hot springs with lunch on a small-group day trip from Antigua.
“The hike was kind of challenging but great, the walking stick rental was $2 but worth every penny because I have a bad knee and I didn’t want to give up and ride a horse:) All uphill and not used to the altitude. The marshmallow roasting was a fun ending! After the hike we drove about 40 minutes to a fancy resort for the lunch, then went on the ‘thermal circuit’. We didn’t get much for instructions so ask questions! There were four small pools ranging from something like 75 to 105 F. Free smoothies too! It felt quite luxurious! Our driver simply waited until we were done, so we…”

7-hour small-group Tikal trip from Flores with lunch, transport, and expert guiding. See Great Jaguar, Temple 4, and the Main Square.
“Recomiendo esta actividad a todas las personas que quieren visitar Tikal, en especial si lo hacen con el guía Wilmer. Es una persona muy atenta y servicial que se esmera por prestarte el mejor servicio y llevarte a las zonas más emblemáticas, para explicarte toda su historia. Además de todo esto, podrás disfrutar de un delicioso almuerzo durante el regreso a tu hotel.”
Hike Guatemala’s Pacaya Volcano in a shared tour with pick-up, hot-rock views, and a box lunch on an active volcano.
“Both our driver and guide were amazing! The drive was smooth and our guide was a lot of fun. He shared a ton of information about the volcano, went out of his way to find the best views with as few people around as possible, and told the best stories. I would highly recommend this tour if you’re in the area of Guatemala City!”
