Explore! commented on this reviewGlad you had a nice trip. Thanks for your feedback. The Explore TeamTrip date: November 2022 - SBScott· November 5th, 2022We survived. Pros: Excellent, knowledgeable guide, Miguel. Well rounded tour of the country. Some fantastic “only in Guatemala “ experiences. Beautiful colors. Cons: 6-8 hours a day in a 12 person van built for 5’10” or shorter people. Horrendous traffic. Sitting for hours for road construction. There’s not a straight road in Guatemala. Up and down steep mountains with S curves, hairpin turns and over 1000 speed bumps.Show moreTrip date: October 2022
