It was our first day in Panajachel and we had a blast with Diego. We picked the full day kayak and hike and we weren’t disappointed. We even got to go cliff jumping! Diego took great pictures of us and we never felt rushed.

We had the best time on this tour! We lucked out with an amazing guide, Fernando. He helped us with transportation from Santa Catalina to Pana when our hotel was not helpful. From there, he was so flexible with how we wanted the tour to look and was the perfect level of engagement with us throughout the tour. We did the longer kayak and hike option and it was definitely rigorous but doable. It was amazing views and got to cliff jump along the way. Highly recommend!

Our guide, Edvin, was very kind and accomodating. He was also very knowladeble and shared all kind of information abour Lake Atitlan and the Mayan culture. He was flexible according to our need. The tour itself is a lot of fun and varied, with hiking, kayaking, visting of a village and lunch at another village. The facilities at his base are very comfortamble and has a terrific view of the lake

Leading up to the trip, there were communication issues as to which day the tour was booked for, and I had to send confirmation pictures. We also had to change our time to accommodate another group or cancel. While on the trip, our guide was very energetic and excited to be there. We kayaked for about an hour, had coffee, then began the hike back to Santa Cruz that lasted just over 2 hours (have good walking/hiking shoes for this part). 2 of our friends that were supposed to go had to cancel, and our guide tried to make up for the experience by offering us different options to make up for the cost difference.
