Book now!! The best tour you will ever experience! - This tour is probably the best tour I’ve ever been on in my life! Alex and Brandon were amazing tour guides who made sure that we were safe every step of the way. We got to see the true natural beauty of Antigua and got to participate in some traditional activities that we will never ever forget. This was truly a priceless experience!

Best experience in Guatemala - This was our favorite experience during our visit to Guatemala! Our tour lasted closer to 7 hours ( returning around 4pm) but that was fine for us. Our guide was Carlos and he and the other staff member helping us were great! They took tons of photos of the group which they then sent to all of the us which was really appreciated! I will definitely be booking any future tours with simoon tours!

Such a Great Tour!! - This was such a great tour. It's jam packed with lots of stops, but it was a delight getting to experience the villages on the outskirts of Antigua. Our guide Carlos was also amazing. I would recommend this tour. My only suggestion would be to allow some practice on the atv before hitting the streets. You'd have to be a quick learner or rode atv before doing this tour.

Wonderful day trip on ATVs - We had an amazing time on the ATV villages tour. We went on April 4th and Diego was our guide. We met at the shop and got fitted with helmets and walked up the street to pick up the ATVs. Diego made sure we were all comfortable with driving them and we took off for the day of adventure. My 7 year old daughter drove with my husband and I had my own. The ATVs were in good shape, better than I was expecting. We stopped at a couple churches and a chocolate and wine making place. There was a textile market and a village market. The village market was one of my favorite as we got to try to make and sample fresh tortillas. Diego did a wonderful job explaining history and culture during the stops. The last stop was a late lunch high up in the mountain. It was fun for my family driving on the twisting mountain roads. There was an incident with the other couple on the tour and Digeo handled it professionally and made sure the group all reached the last stop while he had to deal with the issue. The last stop was el Tambor restaurant which had good food and probably spectacular views. it was hazy that day so too bad for us. There is also a giant swing at the top but we didn't go on it. I think this tour was the highlight of our trip. Thank you Diego!

Excellent experience, highly recommend! - I’ve book two great ATV tours with Simoon. I did the sunset ATV in Antigua which was great and my favourite was the Lake Atitlan ATV village tour. Pedro my guide was amazing, so attentive and friendly. We went to hidden gem spots around the lake, less touristy places which was so much better. The team are super friendly and helpful too with any queries you may have. Highly recommend as the best company to book a tour with.

An Excellent Tour through Picaresque Villages - The Villages tour was the second tour we booked with Simoon. Oscar, our tour leader, was excellent. He made sure we were well prepared to drive the ATVs through the busy streets and roads to the villages. The ride was very enjoyable and scenic. We stopped at a chocolate factory, jade shop and winery which were all quite touristy, and seemingly obligatory. The joy was going to the local markets, churches and squares where Oscar shared his knowledge of the areas we visited. We also stopped at a local restaurant for ceviche and cold drinks. This tour was one of the highlights of our visit to Antigua.

Amazing experience - I had an amazing time ! Our guide, Oskar, was really nice and knew a lot. He brought us to many different and amazing places that we enjoyed a lot. You can also book directly with the agency if you go to their locals or search “Simoon agency” on internet.

Excellent experience - Excellent tour, it is very worth it, you have fun seeing the different towns and workshops. They take you to a textile market where it is well worth buying there for the prices, the jade workshop also has super good prices, the restaurant has delicious food, order the beef broth. The guide was super friendly and attentive at all times.

Great experience, Lester was a great guide! - The Antigua ATV villages tour was an amazing experience! I booked this tour after my sister said this tour was her favorite part of her trip to Guatemala earlier in the year, and the tour did not disappoint. Lester did a great job leading our tour and was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was patient in explaining the details of the different places we visited and is very passionate about his country and showing people its beauty and culture. I learned so much during the day and highly recommend booking this tour!
