5.00100% recommended. Both the driver and tour guide were amazing. Breakfast and Lunch, even though not included, were really good. Boat ride in the lake was fun, and the views were breathtaking. The kids, 9 and 7 years old, loved it.

5.00This tour was absolutely incredible — easily a 5 out of 5 stars. Our driver, Freddy, was amazing. He picked us up right in front of our hotel and dropped us off at the end, making everything super easy and comfortable. It was a private tour just for me and my wife, which made it feel even more special. Our island tour guide, Joel, was fantastic. You can tell he’s super experienced — he showed us everything and made us feel so welcome the entire time. He had great energy, shared a lot of insight, and really made the day unforgettable. Honestly, for everything we did and saw, you just can’t beat the price. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a smooth, fun, and memorable experience!
Great tour for the whole family!

5.00We had a great time on this tour. The driver and van were very nice. Our local guide, Joel, did an incredible job showing us the culture of 3 towns. He was flexible, offering other options when he heard we had already done a chocolate class. We loved learning about the Mayan bees and seeing how they make the textiles. Joel taught us some Mayan words and about the people in the towns. Breakfast at Chichoy and lunch in Santiago were delicious as well. My kids, ages 10 and 12, enjoyed the boat ride immensely (it's a bumpy ride in the front, but we were forewarned). It was a fun and educational adventure.
