Guatemala Tours in November 2026

I am an adventurous person, so the trips on this Guatemala trip were perfect for me. My experience was emphasized by our excellent tour guide and the well-planned transportation to and from each site. I felt the entire trip was smooth and little to nothing went wrong, so I was able to enjoy myself.

We had the best time in Guatemala!! There were so many activities that you have done during the trip. The pro is that we don't have the worry about the transportation because there is some people who are always there to assist us. The only con would probably be having those long land trips. The hotels were decent as we only view them as a place to sleep and shower. This tour exceeded our expectations.

This company did so much for this trip to Guatemala which saved me a lot of planning. CharlieTheTraveler was thorough in their planning, including making sure I knew everything I needed to bring and pack for. The itinerary was detailed and helped me prepare for each day trip.

Most of the time when I plan a trip, I need to account for all amenities, all meals, all admission fees, booking transportation while I’m there, and figuring out hotels that are safe and clean. However, I was amazed from the moment I booked my Guatemala trip with CharlieTheTraveler that so much was already done for me. They really allowed me to enjoy this fun trip!

Great trip with a mixture of Mayan archaeological sites (Tikal, Copan), natural wonders (waterfalls, Semuc Champey), volcanoes, beaches (Playa Blanca near Livingston) and colourful markets (Chichicastenango) and festivals (Sumpango - Festival de los Barriletes). Antigua I think has more to offer than one day - although the option was there for people to extend as we and a few others did. The big issue was some of the long journeys in the bus. EG Guatemala City to Copan, just over the border in Honduras and a remarkable Mayan site, was 5-6 hours according to the Itinerary but actually the journey took 8 hours. Also, on another route from Flores, we went on a short cut on an unmade road for over an hour. I am 6'1" and the pitch on the bus seats was rather tight and uncomfortable. Pretty much everyone had a degree of stomach issues during the two weeks - I was pretty badly affected!

Really enjoyed the trip but there were a couple of long days where it would have been good to spend time in one less village and get back in time to use the lovely pool eg the day on Lake Atltlan. Also on the days where there was no plan to get out of the minibus in the villages it would be good to know this in advance. The night walk guide at Monteverde was great and knew where to find animals and birds. It would probably be worth having a similar ranger guide on the day time walk. Module was an excellent guide… patient, pleasant and good with everyone. Really enjoyed the trip. Feel that I know a lot more about the history and politics of Central America and the accommodation was excellent.
