    Great tour but I think there should be some more of Guatemala included at the start. So much to see but i unless you go a little early you travel to the historic capital to join the tour and then leave. Better to either start from the current capital or include a day there sightseeing. Accommodation ok but could have been better for the price. Restaurants suggested with the leader of the group were often a little more pricey but we had the option to do our own thing too. Tour leader was hit and miss and didnt cope very well when one day the weather was bad and we couldn't do what had been planned felt disorganised and wee went kept in the loop very well. But overall it was a great trip and good people. Nice taster of 3 countries in a short time frame

    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.

    Asked on August 17th, 2025

    I'm interested in going on the solo-ish Guatemala trip during the March dates. I was wondering what's the average age range for the people who attend this tour? I'm looking forward to meeting people who are around my age and possibly make lifelong friends!

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten August 2025

      We tend to find out Solo-ish trips attract a range of ages, from those in their 20s to those in their 50s. This date does not have anyone booked on just yet so we cannot give more specific details.
