Additional Information

Our service is tailor-made for your preferences, letting you decide your own departure time and stopovers at scenic viewpoints, and eliminates the need to wait around for boats to reach minimum capacity - thus saving time. You can spend more time exploring towns, cruising near the shoreline and observing Mayan activities like laundry, fishing and reed-harvesting for mat-making purposes.
Our top priority is always your safety, cautioning you about other services that disregard the dangers posed by XOCOMIL (strong winds) that make sailing potentially dangerous in the afternoon. This safety approach sets us apart from the others.

Amazing - Private tour with Nataley. Her driver and her were excellent and gave us an amazing experience. Because it’s a 2 hour drive each way and the lake crossings becomes too rough after 1pm I really recommend a private tour if you only have 1 day from Antigua.

Day trip well worth your time! - Ramiro was an amazing guide! So kind and had a lot of knowledge about the lake and the culture surrounding. Lunch at Deli Jasmin in Panajachel was incredible, probably the best thing we ate the whole trip!

Antigua to Lago Atitlan Trip - We truly had a great experience on our tour. 1. We loved that our tour guide was punctual, my wife and I love punctuality especially on early morning starts. 2. Nayely Palomo was our tour guide and Cristian was our driver and I honestly had such a great experience. We loved that it was a private tour because it’s such a better feel. We had the freedom to go about as you please. Nayely took us to A Panajachel, then we took a short boat ride to San Juan, there we got a tour of how the women make there coffee and also a the process of the cacao. The town is a lot more colorful and full of energy. Over all it was an amazing day! Note: The ride from Antigua is fairly long and it’s a windy road so if you are someone who gets car sick easily be sure to prepare yourself. My wife and I were ok but I can imagine others.

Treated like friends - It was like riding with family! Nelson was knowledgeable, kind and insightful. He answered the questions about the culture and has a genuine love and respect of the Mayan people. We would do it again!

HUGO IS AMAZING! BOOK WITH HUGO! - Hugo our guide was the best! He was everything that we could’ve asked for and more! I booked this trip for me and my parents who are older and can’t handle a lot of walking. I was worried about the limitations due to their age. But Both Hugo and Gustavo were amazing they both helped my parents in and out of the van every time. Hugo altered the plan in order to accommodate my parent without hesitation. He was VERY accommodating. he was amazing, I would recommend him to anyone wanted to do a tour! Thank you a million Hugo!!

Lake Atitlán - Luck has it we had a private tour for this. Guide was on time, took us to nice breakfast on the way to panajachel. Tour of the cities was wonderful, seeing the highlights of each town. For this day you will need sunscreen, prepared for a boat ride, and only a little walking in the towns.

Worth the price - It was around 8 hours in total. The tour is worth the price, given the places you get to explore. Boat and tuk tuk rides were fun. I found the lake itself to be okay. We stopped for breakfast at a place which was good as well. Our guide was helpful and he knew what he was doing. Only thing I recommend to the tour company is if they could offer water bottles for the passengers. It was long rides and offering water bottles would help.
