Is there a possible option to stay in a close by hotel rather than the hostels or do the hostels have a single room option rather than bunk beds? I like the look of the trip but at 52 years of age I'd rather not sleep in a dorm if possible. Also do you have anyone booked on this tour atm? If so how many please.

Unfortunately, you would need to stay in the accommodation we have planned in the itinerary. You could stay elsewhere but we wouldn't be able to organise that for you or adjust our price for the accommodation you would miss. We don't have a single supplement on this tour to offer you but we might have other tours that would suit you better with regards to accommodation.

We are looking at touring central America (7 countries). Do you have any suitable group tours that provide private rooms for 2 persons?

We are very excited to hear from you! You've made a great choice by choosing to visit Central America!

The tour was great! The tour guide (JC) is a kind-hearted person with a great sense of humor. He always took care of everything and I could totally let myself go! Guatemala is beautiful and I wouldn't have been able to see so much of the country without the tour.
