  Excellent service—it’s a very well-planned tour with highly knowledgeable and attentive guides, especially Mr. Maurico and Rolando, our driver, who was always on top of everything. The only drawback was that we were in Guatemala City on September 15, Independence Day, and the entire downtown area was closed; even so, Mr. Henri showed us as much as he could.Show more

  We very much enjoyed the trip. Thank you so much. I wish there would have been some written information along with the tours the last couple days. There was so much information and I am not fluent in Spanish so I missed quite a bit. Overall though it was a great trip!Show more

  Cannot praise this tour enough. What we liked was the perfect mix of having time to yourself, as well as having a bus or walking tour to really show you the country. We opted for the 4 star hotels, two of which were Porta hotels and they were gorgeous, particularly the one in Antigua. There was excellent (timely) communications from the tour group throughout the week and accommodated an extra night’s stay with zero hassle. Would recommend!Show more

  Thank you so much for this wonderful review — it truly means the world to our entire team! We are so glad you enjoyed the balance between guided experiences and personal time to explore at your own pace. That mix is something we put a lot of thought into, and it's incredibly rewarding to hear that it landed just right for you. The Porta Hotels are some of our absolute favorites, and Antigua in particular has a way of making every stay feel truly special — we completely understand why it stood out. It's also great to know that our communication throughout the trip was smooth and that we could accommodate your extra night without any complications. Being flexible and responsive for our travelers is something we genuinely strive for every single day. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure very soon. There are so many more incredible destinations waiting for you! Warm regards, the management team

  Amazing trip through Guatemala! Antigua, Chichicastenango, and Lake Atitlán were stunning. Our guide Rino was great!

  After booking, customer service team advise that Iximché and Santiago Atitlán will be removed from the trip, and they will add Panajachel into the trip. Which seems all good; however, the truth is that they just delete the stop in the itinerary. And in fact, Panajachel is the town where hotel is located, they are telling you they will add one place that you will visit for sure. And they offer no tour at this place at all. They are just using beautiful wording to cover the ugly truth. In my opinion, this looks quite like scam. I would not recommend to book this trip, unless you are preparing for this.Show more

  Dear Chi, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We truly regret that the changes made to your itinerary did not fully meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that the modifications regarding Iximché and Santiago Atitlán were communicated to you beforehand, and you confirmed your approval of these changes, along with other adjustments you specifically requested. Our goal has always been to ensure transparency and align the itinerary with your preferences. As for Panajachel, it is one of the planned stops on the tour, and its close proximity to the hotel is actually a benefit, offering you more convenience to explore the area. We regret any confusion this may have caused and truly appreciate your feedback, which will help us improve the clarity of our communications in the future. Best regards, Aborigen Tours Team

  The tour it's self was good, and my tour guide for the Atitlan Lake part was exceptional. His name was Luis Diego. But the company I booked with, Aborigen tried to change the tour. They planned to remove the two day trip to Atitlan saying there was an operational issue. I tried calling and texting to say doing a different half day was unexceptional as I had paid a large sum for the tour. Communication was poor with this company. In the end after I threatened to report them they came through with the tour that I booked. The half day portion in Antigua was poorly run. We visited the Jade museum and shop and ended up spending an extra hour there waiting for two people in our group to have jewelry made. Instead of telling these people to return on their own time the entire group sat around wasting time. The trip out to the lake with Diego was the highlight of the tour and highly recommend doing it.Show more

  Great tour, everything was organized well, we only had some problems with the breakfast times, as the pickup time sometimes was too early to make it on time and once the pickup time on our voucher was wrong. But overall, great guides, great hotels, would recommendShow more
