Guatemala Tours & Vacations

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

This coffee-growing, lava-flowing, jungle-clad land definitely doesn’t hold back with color – 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.

Guatemala to Belize

Yu Wei · Traveled August 2023
The Guatemala to Belize 10 day trip is fantastic, especially if you get Aquilino as your tour leader. With great history, people and food. You won't be disappointed.

Guatemala to Belize

Yu Wei · Traveled August 2023
As a first time trip through Intrepid, I was thoroughly impressed with the tour. They have a great itinerary, great organisation to take the hassle out and with a good mix of physical activities and downtimes for relaxation. The leader was knowledgeable and engaging. I had a fantastic trip and would book again.

Our tour leader, Fidelio’s passion and historical knowledge for both Belize and Guatemala was impressive. Seeing the sights was amazing but learning about them was a highlight!

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.
