We had an amazing experience with Simoon Tours! From the very beginning, Iva was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful. She made the entire booking process easy and was always willing to answer our questions. Our guide, Sebas, was absolutely wonderful. He was patient, friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire tour. Since we were the only reservation for the day, the tour became a private experience, which made it even more special. Sebas took his time, shared information about the area, helped us with photos, and made sure my 9-year-old son enjoyed every moment. The ATV tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Guatemala. The views were spectacular, and the service exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Iva and Sebas, for making this such a memorable experience. We highly recommend Simoon Tours to anyone visiting Guatemala!

Amazing experience since the beginning to the end. You learn a lot about the Mayan culture and some of their traditions and how they make all their clothing. Really got the price

Really fun way to see the villages on that side of the lake. ATVs were very safe and comfortable. In addition to the leader, there is a motorcycle that runs ahead to stop traffic as needed. This is mostly on city streets and the open road between villages. The chocolate, ceramic and weaving stops were nice - educational. I would say the only downside was there was considerable lingering at each stop and at a couple they were really selling, and wouldn’t always leave you alone. If each stop would’ve been about 15 minutes shorter, in my opinion, it would’ve been better.
