The Mayan Wonders of Guatemala

4.3(3 reviews)

Dive into the a unique world as you enter Guatemala, one of the most beautiful destinations on the planet. For the next 10 days, we take you on a fun-filled adventure across authentic Mayan ruins, fascinating natural beauty and hidden cultures. We introduce you to a world that feels so different, yet eerily similar. Guatamela is known for its stunning ruins, world class adventure facilities, colonial magnificence and an easy-going lifestyle. Just 2% of the country's landmass has been urbanized, and this means that it's a sure treat for any nature lover as well. A journey to this fascinating land is sure to leave you speechless, as you wander past hidden lakes and ancient ruins, places that have captivated travelers for ages. Active souls tend to find their agenda very full once they get to Guatemala. Stunning trekking routes through the jungles and up volcanoes, world-class white-water rafting, miles of caves to explore, and what seems like a zip line strung between every two trees in the country are just the beginning. Like to take things up a notch? How about paragliding into a volcanic crater at Lago de Atitlán? Or scuba diving in the same place? You might even luck onto some good swell on the Pacific coast. Or you could just find a hammock and languidly consider your options. Your call. This tour starts and ends in Guatemala City. We take you around the city in first class public autobus and shared vans, and let you meet and interact with like-minded travelers. Accommodation is at well-maintained and popular hostels and hotels.

Cruise across Lake Atitlán, often described as one of the most beautiful lakes on Earth, its shores lined with Indigenous villages and its skyline framed by volcanoes.

With experienced local guides, well-paced travel days and thoughtful inclusions throughout, this trip balances comfort and authenticity. Each moment reveals a new layer of Guatemala’s story, from ancient stone to modern resilience, in a land where history and nature are inseparably intertwined.

Reviews of our Guatemala Tours for Winter

Feedback from guests who toured Guatemala during Winter.

Christopher | Traveled in February

5.0 - Excellent

Overall, a very good tour, although a bit too fast-paced. Not enough time spent in several places including Antigua, Guatemala and the beach resort in El Salvador. Hostel accommodations should be upgraded to 2-3 star hotels. Excellent travel companions on this tour (only one traveler with significant psychological disturbance). G has a superior CEO in Jorge Montero, who was a delight throughout. I have two more G tours scheduled later in 2025, so its apparent that I remain a fan and loyal customer of G.

Absolutely loved this tour! It was such a treat to travel through so many countries in Central America at once to discover the individual personalities of each place. With each county's individual policies at the border, it was absolutely essential to have a guide lead us through. This tour wouldn't have been the same without our brilliant guide Jorge! He really made sure we got to experience the best of each place and make the most of each day.

This was an amazing tour! There were so many optional things to do, so if I wanted to keep busy and active I could. And if I wanted to relax or do my own thing, I could do that as well. I highly recommend coming to Antigua early for an extra day or two, and staying a day or two in Playa del Carmen to visit Chichen Itza!

I am absolutely glad I took this trip. The people, and the variety of experiences, I could never have put together on my own. We had an excellent CEO, Ana, who added so much to the trip with her enthusiasm and knowledge and acceptance of all of us. I appreciated the contact that we had with local people, getting a feel for how they live and work. I loved visiting the ancient ruins and hearing stories from local guides. I loved the nature experiences we had with snorkeling, caving and hiking. And beyond that we had a great group of people of varying ages and points of view. It was special to share that time with them.

Amazing trip! Was able to see so much in quite a short period of time. Face paced travel but was a good amount of time at each location. Our CEO Adrian Ramirez was an absolute legend, super insightful and made sure every leg of the trip ran smoothly. 10/10

What an incredible experience of a part of Central America. Guatemala took my breath away and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering Latin America. The activities, the pace, the nature and cultural experience was a perfect balance. My only regret is not staying on the second leg of the tour to continue onto Nicaragua, Honduras and El Salvador.
