Guatemala 2026 Calendar of Events

Elmer was an incredible guide for our tour of the Tikal Mayan ruins. His knowledge was exceptional, and he shared so much fascinating information throughout the day in a way that was interesting, engaging and easy to understand.He was able to answer every question we had, was friendly and relatable, and his English is impeccable. You can really feel the dedication and passion he has for his work and for the history of Tikal. He was also able to point out and describe the birdlife and other interesting animals native to the area.He also thoughtfully provided refreshments, which were very appreciated after all the walking in the heat and humidity!Tikal itself was absolutely magical, and having Elmer as our guide made the experience even more special. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

The experience was awesome, everyone involved is super knowledgeable and the hand on experience is so fun! I got to walk away with a great gift and awesome memories.

Roberto was a very informative guide as we walked to many sites. He had many little stories and funny anecdotes. We also got to stop midway for a rest and chocolate break. He was a great guide on a fantastic tour!

What a fabulous workshop! With a little museum about jade attached, the session was informative, creative and great fun! And what a bonus to bring home your own special piece of jewellery. Loved it!

I had the best experience and would have done it again if time permitted. Our group had Ethan as our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable about Guatemala. He brought a great energy to the group!

The city is a real gem - I can’t emphasise how lovely it is. The tour gave us a great insight into this marvellous place.

We had and AMAZING time, would 100% recommend to anyone. We did the sunset tour and although we booked with a group, we ended up being the only ones. Our tour guide Obdulio was increible, super nice, very knowledgeable and had wonderful English. From the moment we got in the van, he started teaching us all about Tikal, Petén, Guatemala and more. Our lunch was great and in a beautiful little restaurant, quite big and even included a little dessert :) loved not having everything all organized already!

This is an incredible and once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our guide was incredibly patient, informative, and kind. We encountered some difficulties finding the location, but when we reached out to the receptionist, she was incredibly knowledgeable and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process, from check-in to the tour itself. I must say, I wasn’t prepared for the altitude, as I did experience a bit of altitude sickness. However, our guide was incredibly patient and understanding, and I was able to complete the tour. Just be prepared for the cold, as it can get quite chilly. Our guide was so kind that he even let me use his jacket so that I could make it through the rest of the tour. I highly recommend booking this company!

A nice tour of Guatemala City - showing all the sights with an English speaking guide who was very thoughtful, adjusting the tour to our interests. We got a very good insight into the city and the rhythm of life.

Incredibly informative tour. We learned so much and really feel connected to the city now. We especially appreciated the part of the tour inside the central market, as there were so many items we wouldn’t have recognized. Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend this tour!

Aquilino’s deep knowledge of Tikal, the safe and comfortable van, and the magic of this extraordinary place made for an unforgettable experience.

This is a way to learn about the culture and history of Guatemala. Our guide was quite informative..

Our tour started off with a stop for breakfast at a a cute spot to ensure we were fueled for the long day ahead. Our guide, Pedro, was informative and accommodating while ensuring there were opportunities to comfortably explore the various areas on the way and during the tour. Once we got to the attraction, Pedro continued to share fun insights from the herbal plant and throughout the tour. We experienced every presentation offered, the chocolate making, weaving demonstration, and honey and bee presentation as well as having an opportunity to go up to the lookout. Pedro also took excellent pictures of us at the key stops. We loved everything about this experience, it was a long day, but it was well worth it. Even my 12 year old was thoroughly engaged the entire time.

Alejandro was a good guide and explained things to us very well. The driver was also excellent. The food was super delicious.

We had the BEST time ever. One of the best experiences

My husband and I had such a good time on this tour! Our guide was fantastic. If you're on the fence, book this tour. It's totally worth it!
