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
Ingo· November 19th, 2019The tour is a very complete overview of Guatemala. It is very fast paced but every day is a highlight. The main selling point of the tour is the excellent guide who is extremely knowledgeable on literally every aspect of Guatemalan and Mayan history and all aspects Guatemalan.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewThanks for your fantastic review, I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed the trip!Trip date: November 2019

Asked on August 4th, 2022I see that on your site the minimum deposit is 692.40 (on the site of the operator it is 223). Having checked explore! cancellation/modification policy it seems that the deposit is a "non-refundable" cost. Can you confirm that if I need to modify the dates of my booking this amount will be lost in any case, whatever the moment I take such a decision? are there still many spots left for that departure? (I would prefer to book in September)
- Explore!Operator•Written August 2022
The deposit is non-refundable if you are cancelling. However, you can cancel and transfer to another date - or you can cancel and receive a credit for future tours valid for 12 months. Cancelation charges will apply as follows: 59-42 days before trip start date - 30%, or loss of deposit if higher. 41-28 days before trip start date - 60%. 27-14 days before trip start date - 90%. Less than 14 days before trip start date - 100%. For this trip there are no dates available in September. However we have these dates instead: Sat 19 Nov 2022 - Sat 3 Dec 2022, Sat 25 Mar 2023 - Sat 8 Apr 2023, Fri 20 Oct 2023 - Fri 3 Nov 2023, Sat 18 Nov 2023 - Sat 2 Dec 2023.
