Get ready for seven unforgettable days in Guatemala, where we’ll hike volcanoes, chase epic views, and (hopefully) watch Volcán Fuego put on a show. We’ll paddleboard across the breathtaking waters of Lake Atitlán—or at least give it our best shot—explore colorful towns, and experience a country that feels straight out of a storybook.

Jordynn and Noma Travels have partnered to create a trip that is both exciting and intentional.

Jordynn from @wheretonextt__, brings together like-minded people who are ready for adventure.

This is a small-group experience designed for travelers who want to explore Guatemala alongside an incredible community. Throughout the week, we’ll move between destinations together, balancing adventure, culture, and downtime.

Noma Travels brings what they do best: trusted local operators, a Guatemalan guide who will accompany us every step of the way, and seamless logistics so you can focus on enjoying the experience.

To secure your place on the trip, a $500 USD deposit is required. This amount will be applied toward the total cost of your package. Please note that the deposit is non-refundable, so make sure the dates work for you and that you’re able to travel before booking your spot.

The trip will be confirmed once we reach the minimum group size of six participants. You will receive a separate email once the trip has been confirmed.

The remaining balance can be paid in installments or in one final payment—whatever works best for you. Standard Noma Travels terms and conditions apply.

Today is all about arrivals and settling in. Many of you will be flying in from different cities and countries, so feel free to choose the flight that works best for you.

Check-in at our hostel is available from 3:00 PM, but if you arrive earlier, no worries — we’ll safely store your bags while you start exploring. .

In the evening, we’ll officially kick things off with our Welcome Dinner around 7:00, once most (if not all) of the group has arrived. It’s the perfect chance to meet the group, share your excitement, and toast to the journey ahead!

Today is all about exploring the beautiful city of Antigua. We’ll start with a guided walking tour with Happy Harold, visiting iconic spots like La Merced and the Museo de Muang while learning about the city’s rich history and culture.

You’ll also have some free time to wander around Antigua, do some shopping, and pick up any last-minute supplies before our volcano hike.

• Pick-up: We will be picked up at 7:00 AM.
   

• Breakfast and briefing: We'll have breakfast with a local family, followed by a short briefing, gathering our supplies, and starting the hike around 10:00 AM.
   

• Hike to base camp: The hike to base camp is approximately 8 km and takes about 5–6 hours.
   

• Lunch and arrival: We'll have lunch along the way and aim to reach base camp around 2:00 PM.
   

• Optional hike to Fuego: From base camp, there is an optional hike to Fuego. This hike is not guaranteed—it will depend on the weather and your physical condition, which will be assessed by the guides. There is an extra cost of $25 to do this hike.
   

• Dinner: Dinner will be served at base camp.
   

• Final stretch: The next morning, we'll begin the final stretch—the hike to the summit of Acatenango to watch the sunrise. Have breakfast and descend.
   

• Packing list and recommendations: Packing lists and other recommendations will be reviewed prior to the trip.

We will descend from the Acatenango hike and make our way to Lake Atitlán.
Upon arrival in San Pedro, Atitlán, we will check in, settle in, and have time to explore the town. 

It’s time to slow down and enjoy the magic of Lake Atitlán. Spend the day relaxing by the lake, taking in the views, and exploring the water on a stand-up paddle session.

For our final day, we’ll discover the traditions of Lake Atitlán with a textile tour in San Juan La Laguna and immerse ourselves in the local culture. To end the adventure, we’ll hike up to Indian Nose and enjoy a beautiful sunset overlooking the lake.

We will conclude our Day with a Goodbye Ceremony :(
