Guatemala Tour Packages

They are private and tailor-made; we do not run fixed group departures. Sample routes exist to start the conversation, and the final itinerary is designed around your dates, pace, interests, comfort level, and travel style.

Most travelers plan seven to ten days for Antigua, Lake Atitlán, and Tikal, and that works well at a relaxed pace. With less time, we focus on one or two regions and go deeper. With ten to fourteen days or more, we can add the highlands, the Verapaces, quieter Maya sites, or a Belize extension — and if your days cannot comfortably hold everything on your list, we will say so and help you choose.

Most travelers enjoy the dry season, roughly November through April: clear skies, easier travel to Tikal, and volcano views at their best, with December and January the coolest months in Antigua and the highlands. May and October are quieter and greener, with gentler rates; most days are workable and afternoon rain is possible. Whatever dates you have, we will tell you honestly what to expect on your route.

For most first-time travelers, Antigua, Lake Atitlán, and Tikal form a strong planning spine: colonial streets under volcanoes, a lake shaped by Maya communities, and the great ancient city in the Petén rainforest. Depending on your time and interests, we can add the highlands around Chichicastenango, Yaxhá and other quieter Maya sites, the Verapaces, or a Belize extension.

It is built around understanding: unhurried, expert-guided time at ancient Maya cities with room to interpret what you see, and respectful encounters with living Maya traditions — textiles, markets, ceremonies, foodways — arranged with permission and context. Days are paced so the experience has room to mean something.

Yes, when you have enough days. Guatemala and Belize combine well: Guatemala's archaeology and culture first, then Belize's reef, rainforest, and Caribbean finish. A route of about thirteen days works well. On shorter trips, we often recommend Guatemala alone — a rushed border crossing weakens both countries' best moments.

Yes. We adapt private Guatemala tours to your children’s ages, interests and energy, with suitable hotels and time to rest.

Guatemala requires thoughtful preparation, and a private guided journey can make travel more comfortable and easier to manage. You are supported by private transportation, experienced local guides, carefully planned routes, suitable hotels, and a team available while you travel. Conditions can change, so travelers should also review the latest official Guatemala travel advice for the areas included in their itinerary.

Because every journey is tailor-made, we do not publish fixed package prices. The cost depends on your route, the season, the level you choose (Standard, Comfort, or Luxury), the hotels, the number of travelers, and how many days include a private guide. Once we know your dates, your group, and how you like to travel, we discuss figures directly with you and prepare a clear, personal quote.

All three offer private travel, experienced guides and local support. The main differences are accommodation and additional services.

Standard combines comfortable, practical hotels with private transportation and guided experiences.

Comfort offers a higher hotel category, with more emphasis on room comfort, property character and facilities.

Luxury includes distinctive hotels and suites, upgraded private transportation and more personalized arrangements. Specialist guides, private dining or helicopter transfers can be requested and quoted separately.

You can combine levels within one itinerary—for example, choosing Standard accommodation in one destination and a Luxury stay in another. Your proposal confirms the specific hotels, rooms and services.

Tell us who is traveling, when you would like to travel, how many days you have, and how you want the journey to feel. We will listen, and we will come back with a private Guatemala itinerary shaped for the people taking the trip — with hotels, transport, guides, and daily plans arranged around you.
