Great Trip! Esteban was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Gave us great tops for dinning. It was a private tour. We stayed at a nice hotel with great commodities. Would definitely do again!

We were expecting a large group but were pleasantly surprised when we were the only two people on this tour. Our guide, Mirko, was very knowledgable and provided us lots of information about the sites. He drove very carefully and always recommended very good restaurants! He was more than happy to help in any way that he could, and ensured that the long journeys were as comfortable as possible!I will recommend this tour to anyone that travels to Guatemala. Not only were the sites amazing but my tour guide Pedro was phenomenal. I ended up being the only person on my tour, so I was worried in the beginning, but I had an amazing time.

I will recommend this tour to anyone that travels to Guatemala. Not only were the sites amazing but my tour guide Pedro was phenomenal. I ended up being the only person on my tour, so I was worried in the beginning, but I had an amazing time. Pedro was friendly and knowledgeable, and made sure my trip was unforgettable. The drive was a few hours (I think about 4-5 hours) but the view was gorgeous and Pedro was great to talk to. Now for the sites -- The caves were amazing! You can take your time exploring. The Quetzal park was also beautiful with lots of birds and nature. The best part though was Semuc Champey, absolutely stunning. We did a hike first so that we could view it from the top (pretty moderate hike) and then we cooled off by swimming in the pools. One of the top places I've been in my life. Also, the hotel where I stayed was a beautiful resort. It is fairly outside of Coban, but being busy all day, I was happy to come back to the hotel, eat dinner and relax the rest of the evening. The hotel has many restaurants, and even some peacocks, and the staff there was super friendly. Overall, if you want to do something a bit different outside of Antigua, take this tour!!!!A really beautiful tour and the tour guide was very accommodating and very knowledgeable. The company director, Lorenn, is very responsive and speaks English well.

Our guides were fabulous and the places visited were beautiful. But the description is a bit misleading. The description states that to the city of Cobán, it is approximately two hours northwest of Antigua. In reality it is 5 hours. Coban is actually a 30-40 minute drive from the hotel so it was hard to visit the town in the evening. And Semuc Champey is another 3 hour drive. I feel I spent more time riding in the van that touring. Thankfully there was only myself and one other person, so we had a wonderful time talking with our guides and getting to know more about Guatemala in general.
While I only went to a few places in Guatemala, this was by far the most beautiful! Swimming in this secluded paradise was a once in a lifetime opportunity. The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable.
