If you´re looking for the best way to travel from Antigua to Lake Atitlan or, vice-versa, this is an excellent choice.
These two beautiful locations are 2 1/2 hours apart. To make your trip comfortable and pleasant, all our minivans are equipped with A/C and reclinable seats. They are recent models with insurance for passengers and our drivers are friendly and well experienced.
With our private one-way shuttle service, you can book our minivans exclusively for your family or group of friends.

Caution, Viator cancels transfers at last minute

1.00Use Viator with caution for transfers. My transfer from Antigua to Panajachell went well. However my 11 am transfer from Panajachell to Guatemala City was cancelled by email that morning. Viator left me stranded in Panajachell and offered no alternatives. I was left to find my own transportation or miss my flight. I learned the hard way that Viator cannot be counted on.
Robbed due to driver negligence

1.00DO NOT TAKE THIS SHUTTLE!! We were robbed due to the driver negligence. We were a group of 8 and stopped at a grocery store for supplies before our next stop in Atitlán. The driver took us somewhere between Antigua and Atitlan to a supermarket. We all went in, assuming that the driver would stay with the car and all of our luggage (as they should???). The driver entered the store and left the car unlocked with windows down with all of our bags and luggage. We were robbed of $2k quetzals, a passport, 2 laptops, 2 Bose headphones. We had to call the police and file a report. We had to extend our trip to get an emergency passport from the US embassy. DO NOT USE THIS SHUTTLE SERVICE!

3.00Marvin is a great person, however the route from Atitlan to Antigua has many curves and we had to tell him to drive slower and more cautiously because he was going so fast. To the point where the tires squealed on a bend and he evidently looked scared. Besides, this time we got a little bus instead of a car, it wasn't comfortable.

5.00Mario was awesome. Didn't speak English but easy going and tried his best to point out points of interest. Pick up was On time, drove safely on this winding often narrow road. No concerns at all. Lots of flexibility with change in time of pick up. Ie moved from same day scheduled 12 noon to 10am. Excellent communication w Byron (company owner?) on WhatsApp. Def will use again.

On Time, Spacious but Dangerous Driving

3.00We had Osman for both of our transportation to and from Atitlan. The van is spacious and has great AC. Though Osman was always on time, his driving left much to be desired. The road to Lake Atitlan is very winding and Osman drove very fast, passing cars and bikes on blind corners and roads. He did stop us at a great restaurant on the way. I would recommend the service (as they were very responsive on WhatsApp with any changes) but I would likely ask for another driver in the future.
Great ride and driver

5.00I highly recommend booking this drive. The tour company that offers the ride is called GT Business and Travel (GT Negocios Y Viajes) and it's a great small business for any travel and tour needs around Antigua, Guatemala. They provide outstanding customer service and are super friendly and helpful. We rode with them from Antigua to Panajachel (Lake Atitlan) and also from Panajachel to the airport in Guatemala City. Marlon was our driver both days and we had great conversation, learned about Guatemala and the towns we drove through, and stopped for great photo opportunities, food, and coffee. The cars were very clean and comfortable. Also, the timing was perfect - they know the best routes and ways to avoid potential delays. If you want a private drive with a friendly and knowledgeable driver, I recommend booking with GT!
