    Louise

    Asked on May 16th, 2026

    I was wondering if for August could it be the same price as of the month before $2,654 ?

    Price / Availability
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

      We understand your concerns regarding the price differences between dates. As TourRadar is a marketplace, all pricing is set directly by the tour operators themselves, and we unfortunately do not have control over these rates. Prices can vary from one month or departure date to another due to factors such as seasonality, availability, operational costs, and promotions determined by each operator. Because of this, we are not able to adjust prices to match between different months or dates.

      Traveler•Written May 2026

      Where it says on each day transport: private vehicle, local bus, taxi what does that mean is it included ?

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

All modes of transportation within the tour are included in the tour price. if you would like to add airport transfers that will be at an additional cost.

      On this trip am I able too do the 2 day 1 night acatenango volcano

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

      I am sorry but this is not able to be done on this trip

    • L

      Louise

      Traveler•Written May 2026

      But is in day 12 optional activity

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

      It appears that the Acatenango Volcano Climb is all done on one day. Its not an overnight trip. The Acatenango Volcano Climb is not prebookable, so you would need to speak to your tour CEO at the welcome meeting

    Is the tour safe for two young women traveling through Latin America?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written November 2025

      This is one of the most popular group tours we offer to Central America which appeal to younger travelers as they are in a group together with a tour leader throughout. You can feel confident knowing safety is always a top concern and we would not be operating these tours if a guest's safety was at risk. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation for travelers to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.
