  • Maya Triangle : El Salvador, Copan Ruins  &  Guatemala     8 Days reviewer 1
    · March 11th, 2025
    Fully guided private tour offering a quick overview of three countries. Hotels are 2- and 3-star but quite adequate. El Salvadore was most surprising; could have spent another day there and a day less in Antigua, Guatemala.

    The tour itself lacked a sufficient amount of activities, sights, viewings. Very appreciative of the organisation. The hotels were fantastic. The locations were fine. But after 7 days, I felt left unfulfilled. It was also surprising that after 5 days myself and the two others on the tour boarded a bus to our final destination, from which we spent the final two days of the ‘tour’ on our own. Having said that, these two days were spent in beautiful Antigua and I was able to actually do find some activities to do!

    · June 11th, 2023
    This trip will make you want to live here! Alex was an excellent ambassador to his homeland and fantastic driver. Anna was also extremely welcoming, friendly and very informative during the Antigua portion. This trip has it all: ruins, volcanos and the incredible city of Antigua. The hidden surprise for me is just how enchanting the small villages were. Also what will remain with me forever is the people, especially in El Savador, who are in a massive resurgence of their homeland. The excitement was palpable and my guide showed me where it started, how it started and how the growth is limitless. I will be coming back and I hope you choose to book the tour and fall it love with it just as I did.

      TravelerWritten April 2024

      If I go with the May 3rd tour and would like to depart the afternoon of the 9th (instead of the 10th), can you confirm transport can be arranged, and the updated price for 1 person?

    • Inter ToursOperatorWritten April 2024

      There is one situation that there is no more clients booked for this departure, therefore the tour will be private just for you (at least on the El Salvador to Guatemala portion), and the price for a private one-person is $ 2115. We have other clients for 24 may, if you change the date price will be $ 1395.
