    The best money you’ll ever spend! We had the absolute most amazing time on our ‘gorgeous Guatemala’ trip in March, honestly everything was just amazing. Our guide Aura was absolutely fantastic, so sweet and friendly and she knew absolutely everything!!! So informative and knowledgeable, we were in the absolute safest hands. We didn’t really know what to expect but we were absolutely blown away, if you’re thinking about booking this then DO IT, you will not be disappointed, this is the best holiday we have ever been on. So much was packed in that we felt like we’d done a 3 week trip not 5 days. We can’t even pick a favourite part as it was all incredible. The hotels we stayed at were sublime, both with absolutely stunning views and settings. The activities were so fun, this is such a great itinerary. Never went up a volcano and had pizza cooked inside by the heat of lava?! Well now you can. The kayaking at Lake Atitlan makes Lake Como look like Skegness, I have never seen such a beautiful setting. Absolutely recommend doing the zip lining as an additional activity, the views are absolutely un real. There is just so much to see and do, and Aura and the Culture Trip planners made this trip straight from dreams. Everything was taken care of, you can totally switch off and relax and have the best trip ever. 1000% recommend, this was amazing.

    I usually travel solo, but going with Culture Trip made navigating Guatemala stress-free. Having a guide (Aura), who is not only part of the local community, but knowledgeable and passionate about it's history and culture, was invaluable. This trip packs a lot in; occasionally this led to things feeling a bit rushed, but honestly there wasn't a single activity I would have skipped. I stayed in Antigua a couple of days after the trip, and was glad to have that extra time to explore. I would say the activity level is moderate- the hike to Pacaya is no joke with the altitude, and there's quite a bit of walking (uphill!) and kayaking. We were a tiny group (5), and I was the only solo traveler- I don't know if this is the norm for Culture Trip or a fluke- either way we all got along great. Hotels were well-chosen, and much nicer than some other tours I've done. I think a mini Spanish lesson at the start of the trip would be helpful (maybe during the welcome dinner?). Overall this was a fun adventure full of unique experiences, and I would travel with Culture Trip again.

    We had the BEST time on our tour in Guatemala with Culture Trip! Aura was the perfect guide for our group; she was knowledgeable, personable, and made sure we had everything we could possibly need. Culture Trip took all the stress out of travel for us. They thought of every possible detail, not to mention the adorable welcome gifts on arrival! The trip is jam packed with activities and doesn't leave much down time; make sure to bring hiking boots for the volcano and good walking shoes for everything else. The ziplining is optional, but everyone in our group agreed that it was way worth it. The only thing we regret is not booking an extra day after our tour to explore on our own!
