Very fun trip. Enjoyed the scenery and the tour guide and driver even though it was a bit winding the roads that is.

My tour guide Carmen was a magnificent tour guide. She knew so much about the Guatemalan and Mayan culture and was so friendly! This activity is worth every penny. It includes a day full of activities and you learn so much. You will finish the tour with a plethora of knowledge about the Guatemalan and Mayan culture and traditions! Not to mention the lake was a beautiful site to see. The only setback for me was that I had to buy 2 tickets since I am a solo traveler. I wish they offered tickets for one person. Other than that, it was wonderful! Go ahead and book this excursion!

Excellent experience to the famous Lake Atitlan. For the record, I get motion sickness and the drive there was very winding. However, upon arrival the lake was Excellent and lots of fun.
Byron was a great guide and driver despite the terrain. He went out of his way to create a memorable experience for us. He was kind and eager to please.
The only thing that we did not like is that we had to drive from Guatemala City to Antigua to pick someone up and then make our way towards the lake....it ended up being 4 hours because of this arrangement.
The itinerary however is well recommended.
