A great experience. Actually it was more than I expected, having been to Guatemala 18 years ago on my own, I was worried that "you can't go home again" and that I'd be disappointed. But I had just as good a time, and learned much, much more.

Both Hugo Lemus and Melvin Rivera were not only outstanding, they were exceptional. They totally made the trip into a great experience. I enjoyed my travels with them as well as getting to know them as the interesting and wonderful individuals they are. In particular, Melvin was a pure delight even when weather (soggy) was against us - he kept our morale up and his love for what he does was very evident.

I would absolutely use Adventure Life for my next trip, based on my experience in Guatemala. The quality was very high, especially the guides, who can make or break a trip. The only suggestion I'd make is to either include the major tips (for guides and drivers of long trips) in the price, even if it makes it higher. I found tipping confusing.
