Excellent experience - The climb to the Mayan Face was excellent! He made sure to go at my pace, proposed some breaks and made sure I had chocolate and bread on top. Thank you so much for the good company and organization!

Absolutely Magical Sunrise Experience - The Sunrise Tour in Indian Nose was one of the highlights of my time in Lake Atitlan. The pickup was smooth and well-organized, and the guide communicated clearly the day before to confirm everything. After about a 45-minute ride, we began the hike. It’s moderately challenging but manageable if you have decent fitness. The reward at the top is unforgettable. Chema was my wonderful guide, he was friendly and patient, giving me plenty of time to enjoy the view and take pictures. The small group size made it feel personal and safe. If you’re visiting Lago Atitlan area, I really recommend doing this. It’s simple, beautiful, and one of those experiences you’ll remember long after your trip.

Sunrise with Chema! - A beautiful sunrise at the Mayan rostro! Thank you to Chéma who was my guide and who allowed me to make this short excursion safely! I very much appreciated his kindness and attention. I stayed for three nights in their homestay and was a very good experience, in short very recommendable! Thank you!

We are fit, experienced... - We are fit, experienced hikers, this was a very easy hike. Keep in mind that you are already at elevation, increasing elevation, so if you're accustomed to being closer to sea level, you should go slow and have frequent breaks. Chema will make sure you are breaking as much as you need. It is quite cold at the top, so to be comfortable, be sure to pack a warm hat and jacket, as you'll be sitting for a while watching the glory of a sunrise. You'll be offered hot cocoa or coffee and a roll. We were happy to pay for this excursion, as opposed to the many many other offers in San Pedro because it was just Chema, and the two of us. No others to wait for or keep up with.

Amazing! - This was an amazing experience! Chema (José) was a wonderful guide…kind, knowledgeable, patient, and a great photographer! Be aware that it is not a super easy hike…there are many stairs and it is high, but it is worth it!

Amazing sunrise from the Indian Nose - We loved hiking with Chema to watch the sunrise from the Indian Nose. Chema accompanied us by adapting to our rhythm. The climb is quite difficult but it is definitely worth it because the show on top of the mountain is breathtaking. Watching the sunrise over the lake and discovering the villages from this perspective is an unforgettable experience. We came down quietly. Chema was very available and attentive. We highly recommend it.
