Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
Everything about our Guatemala trip was amazing. Everything was on time. The guides were personable, knowledgeable on all aspects of history, culture and nature. The destinations were great. It was truly a great week in a wonderful destination.
