I can't say enough food things about these folks!! Lee made it very easy to plan our day trip to visit villages around the lake. He was very flexible and let us make it up as we went. Our guide Alex was the best. He seems to know everyone and had so many interesting insights about modern Mayan culture. We learned a lot and just loved it. This was one of the best parts of our entire trip. We can't wait to go back. Thank you!!
