Antigua Explorer Tour Reviews
Guest reviews from travelers on Explorer tours in and around Antigua
Michael M | Traveled in August
Overall, a wonderful trip! The pace is fast and the amount of things provided to do was very good. I would have liked to have spent a little more time in Guatemala and Honduras to get a feel for those countries (I can't really say that I have seen them on this trip) yet overall, it was a wonderful time with amazing people and beautiful locations.
Robert A | Traveled in August
The trip had an enjoyable itinerary that was complimented with a fantastic CEO. The only failings were on G Adventures part for not removing a crass, intrusive, and problematic individual from the tour. As mentioned before, call me for additional details. I'm not asking for a refund or credit, but I do not want this to happen to another group again. I recommend your company to too many people for this type of experience to happen.
Jasmin M | Traveled in June
GAdventures offer all you need for a convenient and safe vacation time. The sceneries during this tour are quite diverse and always breathtaking. Palenque was my highlight. I highly recommend a jungle hike in the early morning (with termites for breakfast!) and a swim in the waterfalls in the afternoon.
Kate | Traveled in May
So much to see and do! Amazing wildlife and we saw everything we’d hoped to! It’s a really full on trip so if you like a lie in every morning this trip is not for you, lots of early starts to get to the next destination! Each county you visit is different and so interesting to learn about the history and struggles. We had a small group, so plenty of room in the mini-bus and very good drivers. Would definitely recommend this trip!
Mick | Traveled in April
Great trip, Great group, Big reach out for an brilliant tour leader (Tommy Morales) - sorted out a dentist when I needed one...Has infectious enthusiasm. Transport and accommodation were good. Would suggest including some of the options in the overall trip costs...Otherwise all good.
Alexandra | Traveled in April
Interesting trip, full of culture, beautiful scenery, volcanoes and lakes. Learning about the Mayan people. Difficult obtaining a visa for Honduras. The Mayan ruins & the village of Copan was interesting but not sure it’s worth the hassle with the visa! Our guide Miguel was excellent.
