There are plenty of high-quality tours and experiences in Guatemala. According to previous travelers, here are the best tours to book right now:
Yes, guided tours in Guatemala are considered worth it by travelers—tours help you see more of the country's varied landscapes, culture, and cuisine, without handling the travel logistics. There are also many options available, including cooking classes, walking tours, and guided hikes.
Per one customer who booked the Authentic Guatemalan Cooking Class in Antigua, "This was one of the most memorable experiences we had in Guatemala! Our Chef Beles at Cuscun was wonderful, our translator Mafer was patient and kind and the rooftop location to cook and enjoy our meal afterwards was incredible. This was worth every penny! We highly recommend this experience!"
Tours in Guatemala are available at a wide range of prices. On the low end, guided walking tours cost around US$25, whereas full-day private tours to areas like the El Mirador ruins or the Acatenango Volcano can cost around US$800. Multi-day tour options are far more expensive, as are private excursions.
For a walking tour on the lower end of the price range, consider this Antigua Walking Tour, which covers the city's many ruins and historic landmarks in a small group, for around US$20 per person. If your budget is higher, a full-day tour such as the Best Rappel in Guatemala (42 Mts. High Waterfall Near Antigua) might appeal to the adventure seekers in your group. This excursion grants you access to a private coffee farm, where you'll rappel down a waterfall with the help of a guide.
A wide range of activities is included on tours in Guatemala, so there's almost certainly something that will appeal to your group. Depending on your budget and interests, you might opt for a tour of a coffee farm, a guided overnight hike of the Acatenango Volcano, or a walking tour of Antigua's historical sites.
Consider an all-day or multi-day tour to pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, the 6-Day Tour to The Most Popular Destinations in Guatemala covers a lot of ground, including a hike to the summit of the Pacaya Volcano, tours of Guatemala City and Antigua, and a trip to the volcanic Lake Atitlan.
You’ll want around 5–7 days to see Guatemala’s highlights. This should be enough time for a relaxed itinerary that includes experiencing Antigua’s restaurant scene and historical sites, cruises to the villages on Lake Atitlan, and taking a cooking class or visiting a coffee farm. You may also have time for an overnight volcano hike at either Pacaya or Acatenango. Plan for 7–10 days if you want to include Tikal or other Maya sites.
