Busy but beautiful day at Lake Atitlan - What can I say about Luis and Ilsa. Luis made sure we got to Lake Atitlan safely and in a timely manner. Ilsa was an excellent tour guide who showed great patience with us when we couldn't keep up. She gave us a wealth of knowledge about the Guatemalan towns/tribes and their customs around the Lake and the country as a whole. I highly recommend this tour to Lake Atitlan. It was a wonderful experience.

Panajachel to San Juan boat trip - We've been to Panajachel & Lake Atitlan in the past. This is the first time that we booked a boat tour over to San Juan La Laguna. Taking the boat across was the fastest way between the two. Our group decided to spend 3 hours in San Juan rather than 2 with 1 hour in Panajachel. The street decorations and mural paintings are incredible. You can also buy completely hand made fabric goods that they make there in the town from the cotton trees.

Lakes, Islands, and Volcanoes - A long day but certainly worth it, it's a good three hour drive from the hotel to the lake but our guide Luis was a great conversationalist. Upon finally getting to the lake we were put on a private boat and took a good 45 mins ride to the island. Now honestly I could have gone without the island, it was essentially a trip to the island so they could take us to three different vendors the tour company probably has deals with to shop. Now I will concede, did buy some bomb rare honey, but all in all the highlight for me was simply gazing upon the lake and volcanos. I'll give these guys a solid B grade.

The description of that... - The description of that volcano visit indicates there is red lava flowing and you see it. We were very disappointed to discover there is no love of flowing and there is no caldera to look at so you just did the hike up part of the volcano which is not interesting
