5.00This is a super tour "chaired" by Rosa and Pedro. It strikes a balance of adventure with culture and education taking into account honey making, cotton production, chocolate cultivation, religion and others. Not a dull moment. Thank you for the experience.
Educational, cultural, authentic, fulfilling.

5.00We had a limited time in Panajachel, and we wanted to see and learn as much about the Atitlan area as possible. Pedro, our tour guide, did an amazing job capturing the historical, cultural, and socioeconomic experiences that shape this region. As a family, we were extremely appreciative to discover so much in one day. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to pack a serious much with limited time. It was a beautiful day at a great value.
Don’t miss this amazing tour!!

5.00This was an excellent tour and we are so glad we decided to do it. We were already in Panajachel and were glad to find a tour that left directly from there. We enjoyed the view of the lake during the breakfast provided, and our guides were extremely helpful in explaining things both in English and Spanish to the tour participants. We visited 3 villages and got to learn about the local cooperatives located there. It was wonderful to see local young people leading the cooperative tours and explaining what they do and showing us the amazing products they create. They bee keeping cooperative made so many wonderful products with the honey! overall, we would definitely recommend this tour.
Great experience! Would definitely recommend!

5.00From the beginning the agency knowing Guate contacted us the day before the tour with all the details of the meeting point of our tour and more. The guides Rosa and Pedro welcomed us at the Porta del Lago hotel in Panajachel and took us to one of the jetty restaurants to enjoy a good typical breakfast. From there we went to our boat that took us to the different villages of the lake. All the visits we had to the different cooperatives such as the honey shop, the fabric shop and the chocolate factory were extraordinary. Equally worth highlighting the professionalism and knowledge of our guides. I am very pleased with the experience we had.
Great experience and inexpensive
