My sister gets car sick easily so we needed a private car to get from Guatemala City to Lake Atitlán. Enio was an excellent driver and he sweetly shared his snacks with us. His car could have used new shock absorbers but that was ok and he put the air conditioning on for the whole time, which was so great. But when we got to the docks, our driver took us to the only captain at that dock and we were told we had to pay Q100 for the two of us just to get to the public dock, which was only about 5 minutes away. When we told the tour company that we weren’t happy to be dropped off at a private dock, they said we CHOSE the private boat by accident. I asked the right questions and made the only choice I could with the info I was given. Still, the most important part was a good driver in a comfortable car, and Enio did provide us with those things.
Great experience!

This was the best experience! Worth every penny! Made the long journey a lot smoother and way less headache for us. Our driver, Ruben, was so kind and stopped for us to get lunch and to use the bathroom. Pickup process was seamless and easy. I would highly recommend!

Gustavo with Due South Travels provide our transfer from GUA to Panajachel. He was very friendly, thoughtful, and made sure my husband and I had food and water during the trip. I cannot recommend Gustavo and Due South Travels more!!
