Lake Atitlán Tour from Antigua

CA Travelers

I had the most incredible experience hiking with Marvin on Acatenango! He is a great guide, genuinely cares about the group, would not leave anyone alone behind and also considered the best timing for us to hike to fuego to see the volcano eruption. 

Tour Volcán Acatenango (2026)

We had fun- the trip was hard but the views were amazing.  I would prefer if Leo kept US politics out of the discussion as it brings negativity to us tourists from other tourists from other nations. We had fun and would do again just my opinion. much love from the USA to the country of Guatemala 

It was super well organized and everyone took very much care of the group and made sure everyone was fine all the time. Transport, the acommodation at Base Camp and the food was also great :)

The Acatenango tour was an unforgettable experience. Everything was very well organized from start to finish. The guides were professional, friendly, and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the hike. Even though the hike was challenging, watching the volcano erupt at night and seeing the sunrise above the clouds was absolutely incredible.

A experiência e o acampamento da CA Travelers são incríveis, nos sentimos seguros e confortáveis com tudo. As refeições são muito boas. 

Amazing experience overall. The hike felt safe and well organized, the accommodations were comfortable, and the food was good. Huge shoutout to our guide Marvin for making the entire experience great and taking care of us throughout the hike. Highly recommend.

Mochila en Renta

Punctual. Service as expected. I recommend.

Shuttle from Antigua to Panajachel

Over all a very good experience, the guides were helpful and nice. The food was good. The only problem  was that the room was very dirty,  we saw a mouse in the room and another one in the kitchen. 

The experience was incredible. The trekking is s bit hard but it's completely worth it and the guides are super kind and help you with everything you need.

Private Tour Promises Not Kept.

My partner and I booked a private overnight hike and sunrise ascent with CA Travelers, paying extra specifically for a private guide. We were very thorough during the booking process, emphasizing that we needed a slow pace and regular stops. Unfortunately, the reality of the trip was a series of broken promises and poor organization.

The Main Issues:
• False "Private" Tour: Despite paying for a private guide, we arrived to find another couple joined to our group. They had also been told they were on a "private" hike. This completely defeated the purpose of our booking.
• Safety and Pace: Because we were merged with another group, our request for a slow, steady pace was ignored. There was pressure to continue after only 5-minute breaks (these beaks were infrequent), and we struggled to keep up. This was exactly what we had paid extra to avoid.
• Inadequate Base Camp Facilities: We were promised a heated area (approx. 20°C) with beanbags to rest before the summit. Instead, the room was freezing. It was so cold that sleep was impossible, and another hiker in our group was in tears from the temperature.
• Abandoned for Fuego: We explicitly stated during booking that we did not want to do the Fuego trek due to fitness and altitude, choosing to focus on the Sunrise Hike instead. However, because we were forced to share one guide, he took the other couple to Fuego. This meant we were left behind and didn't get to do our planned morning hike at all.
• Logistical Failures: We requested hiking sticks and a porter well in advance. We had to chase the company repeatedly for confirmation, and even then, it wasn't organized correctly. Our guide ended up having to give us basic sticks at the last minute.

Summary:
The camp and views were amazing but our experience was tainted because we felt misled and ignored. We paid for a premium, personalized service to ensure we could enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience safely and comfortably, but CA Travelers treated it like a standard group tour while keeping our "private tour" fee. I’ve heard better reviews about the company’s group tour so you may be better off with this.

Tour Volcán Acatenango Sunrise (2026)

In total everything was fine, sometimes the driver was too harsh…

Shuttle from Antigua to Guatemala City Airport

We had an awesome time. Everything was awesome from the tour guides to the group size to the food to the base camp accommodations. Would highly recommend CA travellers to anyone!

Do not hesitate to book with CA travelers. The trip is organized very well, but allows a lot of space for flexibility (ex: variety in meals- pretty decent considering the circumstances). Carlos and his group (Anderson, Davis, Cristobal, and one more great guide, name slipped from me) were really so knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating. Carlos stuck to a strict (pre administered) schedule, but tailored it to the specific needs and strengths of the group. He always provided options (ex: waiting to ascend fuego later for increased visualization) and maintained a really positive vibe throughout. My most sincerest shout out to Cristobal, who accompanied me struggling through 75% of fuego. He was so patient and calm and kept our safety his number one priority. The information packet they send out ahead of time is incredibly helpful. The included equipment is well thought out and all very necessary. Base camp is PERFECTLY located to view the volcano and  has clear doors so you can watch fuego erupt from your bed in some of the cabins. The company really prioritizes sustainability. Despite the difficulty, we’ll always look really fondly on this experience

Terrible experience. No one had my name on a list, I was moved buses twice, the bus I ended up on was packed (over-booking was mentioned). We then had to change buses again in Coban to a bus that was also packed. Later in the journey they again moved people off the bus to another. All the messing around took extra time, it was very poorly organised. For a journey meant to take 6/7 hours it took 12. Guatemala’s shuttles cost more than accommodation, so they should be able to do better than this. Others I spoke to said worst experience for tourist transport in all of Central / South America. 

Shuttle from Lanquín to Flores

Pick up was at time stated. Took longer than expected, as did all the other shuttles I booked, so expect the higher end of the window and then some. Thankfully not a full shuttle but it was an old mini bus so would’ve been awful had I had to sit next to someone.

Shuttle from Antigua to San Pedro, San Juan, San Marcos, San Pablo

Generally an ok trip and as pain free as such a long journey could be. It wasn’t a full bus so I had a bit of space. There was a couple of stops for breaks. Definitely plan for it taking 11-12 hours.

Shuttle from Panajachel to Lanquin

Booked this only two weeks in advance and was lucky to get a spot. The comms from CA was excellent — replies to email questions were speedy, as was confirmation of payment / booking. 
Information provided in advance was comprehensive, I particularly liked their digital brochure providing clarity. The only feedback on this is that it wasn’t clear I’d have to carry my own food, which would’ve been helpful to know as I took a small backpack which was full. Thankfully, I could attach the food bag to the front of my backpack due to suitable attachments. 
The trip itself was well paced, comms was very clear, and the guide Carlos managed the group well. 
As a strict vegetarian who has a serious meat intolerance, I was nervous about the food , but dinner was cooked separately in terms of separate pans / utensils. 
Food was basic but well thought out in the main and I didn’t get ill which is always a bonus for me. 
The cabins were basic but had been cleaned between use and even as a solo woman sharing, I had enough space and privacy due to a curtain separating. The company also took my request to only share with another woman. 
Point of improvement would be to designate one of the three toilets as women only — sadly there was urine all over the seats constantly as the seats can’t be lifted on the eco toilets. Using them was really unpleasant, I can cope with the hole in a ground but would rather a squat toilet than that.
I took all my own gear, but they had everything if it was needed, plus option for porter, but I did it with 14kg on my back comfortably. This means waiting around a lot initially whilst everyone gets sorted, but can’t be helped.
Overall, it was a great experience and I did all aspects of the trip, including Fuego and sunrise. I would recommend this company.

Nous avons adoré cette expérience: la montée aux deux volcans, la nuit (même courte), les rencontres que nous avons faites, ...!
Les guides sont très compétents et le personnel au bureau très arrangeant.
Nous étions un groupe de 29 personnes (à peine grand à notre goût) avec un niveau assez disparate, mais les guides se sont toujours assurés que tout le monde soit bien encadré.
En tant que coeliaque, je suis très reconnaissante d'avoir eu l'option d'un repas sans gluten (avec mon allergie prise au sérieux).
Le seul point négatif: on nous a donné une heure de rdv le matin pour la dernière montée à l'Acatenango. Toutes les personnes motivées à monter étaient présentes mais nous avons dû attendre 25 minutes les guide pour le départ. Quand on a dormi 2,5heures après une première journée relativement intense, ces 25 minutes de sommeil supplémentaires auraient été agréables.


Had the best time doing this hike with CA, they prepared us with all the info and resources we needed to do this hike in a safe and enjoyable way, Kevin was an amazing guide and the other members on the team were fantastic, such a great group to go with, met some awesome people on this trip, truly an unforgettable experience thank you!! 

Amazing staff and guides. The tour was so well organized from the starting point till the end.  I was so behind because of my altitude sickness, but the guides were all very supportive and waited when I took frequent stops. Most guides would push you to keep it moving, but not CA traveler. When they noticed I was sick, they were attentive and supplied me with Oxygen since my levels were so low. I felt very safe being a solo female traveler. I highly recommend them!

Absolutely amazing experience and very professional approach from CA Travelers. Highly recommend! The best 

It was the most incredible experience! Our guides really took the timeout the bus to explain anti-colonialist history, we’re so patient with pacing for the group since we had 30 people in varying speeds, we’re very funny and encouraging, and worked SO hard! The trip was a great experience while in Antigua and they were all very knowledgeable! Kevin, our main guide, had just started with company a few weeks ago but you’d never know! Gracias!

Excelente atención, nos ayudaron cuando pensamos que ya no teníamos opciones para viajar a panajachel. Los mejores 👍🏾 

it was truly a great experience. the guide was knowledgeable, the prices were affordable and it was a cool experience to climb a volcano

Pacaya Volcano Tour

The best tour company we could have chosen for Acatenango! They are very detailed and give you all the information you need before the hike. The meals and water provided were plentiful to keep you full and all the gear to keep you warm at night. I love how they give back to the community and do not use horses. They made sure to let us know that their goal was to get us up there, so you did not feel rushed. 10/10 would book with them again!

Easy booking, prompt pick up, and comfortable for a shuttle! 

It was the best trek I have ever done. Everything was excellent. The guide was professional, the food very tasty, the camp was very good and the volcano was generous with us ……….

The driver was professional and very good. 🙏

Private Transportation Antigua—Chichicastenango—Xela

It was lovely tour , and we enjoyed very much 

Antigua ATV Village Tour/Driver

O tour foi todo incrível, do começo ao fim! A comida era ótima, a acomodação confortável, os guias atenciosos, com destaque especial para o Alejandro, que tornou tudo ainda mais especial (parabens mais uma vez pelo seu trabalho). 

Nous avons adoré l’expérience avec cette agence. Tout est bien pensé : le camp est super, les guides sont gentils et les repas sont en quantité suffisante. Il s’agit de groupes assez importants, donc l’organisation peut parfois prendre un peu de temps (équipement le matin du départ, etc.), mais cela reste très bien géré. Nous recommandons !

Great experience, friendly and competent guides, would recommend!

It was fine. A bit underwhelming. Guide is underpaid for the services they provide. One of the staff in your location was trying to jump into my conversation with the agent who was booking my tour, you could smell alcohol in his breath. Fine overall for what I paid but pretty meh by operator standards.

Very punctual, the shuttle was confortable and the staff were very diligent.

La mejor experiencia en Guatemala. Los disfrutamos mucho 

We had an incredible experience! Lorena, Leo, Kevin, Gerson, Jordy and David were so so nice to us! Our group was great we made great friends and the experience was absolutely out of this world. I would recommend CA travel anytime :))

La experiencia con CA ha sido simplemente perfecta. Nuestros guías fueron increíbles, nos acompañaron y se adaptaron al ritmo de todos, teniendo en cuenta las limitaciones de cada persona y ofreciendo la ayuda necesaria. La comida estaba muy rica, la equipación que nos proporcionaron era muy buena y eso te permitía no tener que viajar con tu propio equipo. Lo mejor de todo fue que además la ubicación de las cabañas era inmejorable; a pesar de que en mi caso hice la caminata adicional a Volcán de Fuego muchas de las mejores fotos que tomé fueron desde la cabaña, porque las vistas eran de verdad perfectas. 

Great! No complaints. Good price. Booked last min. Driver was hustling to get everyone in the van promptly. Had a rest stop break on the way to Panajachel. 

La pasamos muy bien, los guías muy copados y con buena atención, buena comida y un hermoso lugar para ver el amanecer del volcán 

Driver is great, very on time, confirm every customer on the bus after every stop, very responsible drivers. 

However, could we have the option to pay more have better seats, the seats are terrible for 8 hours ride. Space small,  or able to recline. 

If the seats is better, more people will like to take the bus, more business and more money you can make.

Please improve your quality of hardware if you want more tourist to come. Raise your standards = raise your money. 

Shuttle from Antigua to Lanquín

Good and reliable service if you’re not in a rush given that the shuttle has to pick up clients from multiple hotels and it’s not clear from the advertisement. Pick up was at 4pm and we ended up leaving Antigua only at 5pm after stopping in 4 different locations. 


Excelente servicio y atención tanto del equipo en la agencia como del chofer del transporte, nos ayudó a dejarnos en el punto que le pedimos. 

Our group had two guides, both of whom were excellent. I really appreciated Angie—who was tasked with bringing go up the rear and keeping stragglers from getting lost—particularly because she was patient and kind and cheerful and always professional. Sometimes tours like this have guides who go through the motions, leaving you feeling like they’d rather be somewhere else. I was happy to find that our two guides were not at all like this. In addition, the people at the front desk who were booking tours were also very helpful and friendly. Genuinely so. When I return to Antigua next year, this is the first agency I’ll be booking with. 

Coffee & Gastronomic Bike Tour

The tour was incredible. The guides were really good - Marv was great. Food was decent and the cabins were nice. 

We had an amazing time with our tour guide and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who goes to tikal. Our tour guide spoke English and spanish. 

Tikal Tour

We had so much fun hiking with CA Travelers! It was a larger group but we really got the chance to get to know the guides and learned a lot about the culture in the process! Food was plentiful and pretty yummy.

This is one of, if not my favorite tour I have ever been on! We had the best day ever and the tour truly included so much more than expected. My friend and I signed up pretty last minute and they were able to accommodate us. The tour lasted roughly 4 hours ad we went to a coffee far, tasted coffee, a chocolate making shop, tasted chocolate tea, a local market and tried lunch snacks and a TON of traditional sweets, then went to another local shop where we tried 3 more Guatemalan drinks! The entire tour was very entertaining, delicious, and we learned so much about the history and current state of Guatemala as well. Our tour guide was amazing and has the biggest heart and so much love for her people! She has supported/ started 2 schools in the area and you can really tell how much she cares to give back to her community. Going with a company like CA travelers helps you make an impact as well! I would do this tour 100 times over! 

Unreal experience from start to finish. This tour was incredible. The information before was perfect, you can borrow equipment if you need to, the food was unreal and plentiful and the huts are warm, comfortable and have the best views over the volcano. This company were unreal and our guide, Marvin, was the best - he clearly knows what he is doing.
