- AAntonelaJune 9th, 2025This is a short tour to learn more about Mayan culture. I found the pace too slow. It could incorporate more...Show moreTraveled in May 2025Reply from: Intrepid TravelHi Antonela, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience on your recent Heart of Guatemala tour. As you mention, this is a short 6 day trip which means it is quite a quick snap shot of Guatemala. While we understand you would have liked to have more activities incorporated in the itinerary, our 'Original' style trips such as this one are balanced between included activities and free time/optional activities which allow our travellers the choice of what they would like to explore. We are thrilled to hear that you found Isaias to be knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating along with an appreciation of the centrally located hotels. If you would like to discuss your feedback further please don't hesitate to reach out to us at customercare@intrepidtravel.com.Show more

All other overnights on tour were great!...Show moreTraveled in December 2024Reply from: Intrepid TravelHi Christine, thank you for your recent review. It is always great for us to receive constructive feedback, such as yours. Although it is not always the case that a departure has 100% of the spaces, your dates did. While we do always have allocated seats for everyone on tour, we understand that some travellers may not be used to such 'close' transportation methods in their day to day. We are thankful to have been able to host you again on your adventures, and we hope to see you again on a new adventure! Wishing you all great things for 2025!Show more

Asked on November 25th, 2023How do we travel from/to the Guatemala City airport to Antigua to start and end the trip? During the part of the trip where you make an offering (it looked like tobacco or alcohol)-we don't drink or smoke-we would not have to do either for that ceremony, or presentation, correct? Can you share a little more?
Intrepid TravelOperator•Written November 2023We can assist you in arranging airport transfer to and from the Guatemala airport at an additional cost. You can free to skip any included activities in the itinerary. Please let your tour leader know that you will not be participating in the San Simon shamanic ceremonies, and he will assist you further.
