What people love about touring Guatemala solo
- Basic Guatemala - 8 days
The tour provided by Mayan Sky was good except for the fact that the itinerary was changed and Receptivo Aborigen Tours which was responsible for the booking did not warn about it beforehand. Another fact is the wrong info that I was given before the tour about the payment for the inner flight [Removed in Moderation] but then it turned out that I had to pay additional $250 for the flight that was in the tour (Guatemala City - Flores and back)
- Guatemala Express - 5 days
Well organized with a fantastic and well informed guide, met all our expectations.
It was a nice time in the entire tour. We enjoyed the small group aspect, the tour guide Abraham was knowledgeable and helpful. Our bus driver Luis was timely, curious, and safe. Thank you again!

What our customers ask about Guatemala Tours for Solo Travelers
What safety precautions should solo travelers take in Guatemala?
Guatemala has established tourist areas where visitors can move around comfortably. The Porta Hotel del Lago in Panajachel represents the type of well-vetted accommodation that adds security to any stay. Daytime exploration is preferred, and reliable tour companies provide safe transport between cities. Most visitors find comfort in using official airport transfers and joining guided excursions to popular sites.
What are the typical group sizes on Guatemala tours?
Tour groups in Guatemala tend to stay small and personal. Whether walking through the stone pathways of Tikal or taking a boat across Lake Atitlán, travelers often find themselves in groups that allow for individual attention and easy movement between locations.
How much should I budget per day for a Guatemala tour?
Daily costs for guided tours in Guatemala range from $216 to $491. An 8-day tour package typically costs around $250 per day, covering hotel stays, morning meals, transport services, and guided visits to key sites.
What types of accommodation can I expect as a solo traveler in Guatemala?
Solo travelers usually stay in 3-star hotels and local lodges selected for their comfort and social settings. The El Retiro Lodge in Lanquin shows what to expect - simple but comfortable rooms near the river where guests can easily meet other travelers in common areas.
How do group activities work for solo travelers in Guatemala?
Group activities naturally bring travelers together. On Lake Atitlán, visitors share boats to reach villages like San Juan La Laguna, where they learn about local textiles and traditions side by side. These shared experiences often lead to natural connections between travelers.
Will I have access to English-speaking guides?
Tours come with guides who speak both English and Spanish fluently. Companies like Receptivo Aborigen Tours employ professional guides who explain local culture and history clearly in English throughout the trip.
