Discover Guatemala - Ancient Maya ruins, enchanting towns, vibrant markets, towering volcanoes & spectacular scenery.
Discover our Guatemala ItinerariesEvery Guatemala holiday that we arrange starts with a blank canvas from which we then strive to create the perfect itinerary for your specific individual requirements — your route, your pace and your choice of accommodation together with your own car and driver / guide. Together with our local expert agents, there probably isn’t a combination of cities, countryside and Maya sites that we can’t arrange.
For a relatively small country, Guatemala sure packs in a lot of variety: steamy lowland jungles in the north, cool & mountainous highlands in the south, dramatic rivers such as the Rio Dulce, spellbinding Lake Atitlan, countless atmospheric Maya ruins such as Tikal, Yaxha & Iximche, traditional & colourful indigenous markets at Chichicastenango & Solola, towering, lava spewing volcanoes, trekking, cycling and birdwatching. And of course, the most beautiful town in all of Central America, Antigua.

No single itinerary can ever succeed in being entirely comprehensive but our private, 3-week, Complete Guatemala comes pretty darn close and even provides the option of quick detour into Honduras.

While the focus of our Guatemala holidays is very much on touring and exploring, and the country lacks any beach locations of note, that is not to say that flopping out post tour is out of the question. The simplest option is to tag on a few days in Belize at the end while Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula is also just a short flight away. Both offer stunning, Caribbean beaches and a variety of hotel options.
