Guatemala Tours & Holidays

Bienvenidos! Welcome to Guatemala – a land of ancient civilisations, steamy jungles and laidback locals.

This coffee-growing, lava-flowing, jungle-clad land definitely doesn’t hold back with colour – think retro chicken buses cruising down the highway, pastel-washed colonial buildings lining the cobbled streets of historic Antigua and vibrant wares on sale at market stalls in Chichicastenango. And whether you’re cruising down the Rio Dulce to Garifuna-influenced Livingston, strolling around the quaint island of Flores in Lago Peten Itza, or trekking to the Maya ruins of Tikal, your Guatemalan adventure will unlock all but one of its highland secrets – how this Central American beauty is still largely undiscovered will continue to remain a mystery.

Real Central America

Alicia · Traveled August 2023
This was my first tour and it was amazing! As a solo female traveller, the trip provided the security and safety that I was looking for whilst travelling through Belize and Guatemala. It also provided like mind-ed people to enjoy all the beautiful sights and experiences with along the way. Our group had so much fun, and we adored Caye Caulker, The ATM caves, and Guatemala. My highlight was the overnight Acatenago hike, make sure you leave an extra day on the end to attend the hike.

Maya Encounter

Carly · Traveled August 2023
Mayan Encounter was wonderful and Aquilino was a spectacular guide. Central America is a stunning region rich with culture and not to be missed. The trip was organized and I always felt safe. Be prepared for public transit for about half of the trip and for private transit the other half. Many of the "optionals" listed in the itinerary in actuality end up being the activity for the day, so do plan those expenses in your budget. Also plan for tips to the driver(s) of private transit and for your guide. I hope to return to see the next countries in central america soon.
