What a great adventure! - We had quite a fun afternoon exploring the various villages around Lake Atitlan, visiting specialty vendors for coffee, chocolate, rum, textiles, ceramics, etc. Our guide Andre was really fun and did a great job of keeping us on track while also making special stops for photographs with great vistas. There was some walking, but for anyone with average mobility, this was a very accessible activity. (I’d bring my 75 year old cancer survivor mother along were she on the trip with me and she’d navigate it well.) A great way to see some of the less touristy villages and enjoy some truly breathtaking views of the lake and volcanoes.

An Incredible First ATV Experience – Highly Recommend! - This ATV tour was awesome! As a first-time ATV rider, I was pretty nervous, but all my worries vanished thanks to our incredible guide, Nemy. He led our group on a perfectly paced, safe tour—never going too fast and always being super cautious, especially around the windy curves. The route itself is fantastic. A pro tip: bring a small bag or backpack for any souvenirs or goodies you pick up along the way. A friendly reminder: Please remember to tip your tour guides! They work incredibly hard to provide this amazing experience, and it’s a meaningful way to show your appreciation. Only con is it was a bit challenging to find the tour meeting point.

Very fun atv ride with a... - Very fun atv ride with a small group. We visited two villages. The first village had a stop at a cafe, and the second village had stops at a chocolate shop, a pottery shop, and a fabric shop. Our guide was kind and patient. The only negative aspect was that we didn’t know ahead of time that our 17 year old had to be a passenger and wasn’t allowed to drive his own atv. That was disappointing as he was the one who had picked the atv as his activity of choice and then wasn’t able to drive it. Just be aware of that if you have any underage teens!
