    Underwhelming due to rain

    Kandace_P, Jun 2025
    Grabbed the tour last minute thanks to Acatenango being closed. Was a happy surprise that they picked us up, I don't recall the listing saying it included transport. It started raining as we got to the headquarters, and our guide asked if we minded getting wet or if we preferred to take the Jeep instead (it was just us two). Of course we said let's take the buggy.... That's why we booked the trip! We threw on a poncho and hit the road. However I think due to the rain we didn't many of the stops that we were supposed to. We didn't get any info about the towns we went thru. We did stop at the macadamia nut farm but did not tour it. Only sat in the lobby and tasted nuts then left. We did see a small explanation of cocao roasting then they sold us some chocolate, then we went to a jade demonstration and tried to sell us some jade. So really we just visited their vendors. We did get dinner at a rustic outdoor place and the pepian was delicious.

    Great tour with some pre-tour miscommunication

    Kyle_M, Jun 2024
    Overall, the tour and our tour guide was great. But taking one star off because of the poor communication before the tour. Had a hard time getting a response from the tour company and the drop off location on Viator was incorrect which we did not realize until our Uber dropped us off at the wrong place. We also did not find out till we met our tour guide that a hotel pick up was included in our package. Would still recommend the tour company but confirm the itinerary well in advance.

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the tour and our guide. We apologize for the communication issues and the incorrect drop-off location. We'll work on improving these aspects. Please feel free to contact us directly for any future bookings to ensure everything is confirmed in advance. We appreciate your recommendation!

    Great tour, great guide

    Steven_B, Dec 2023
    Giovanni was a great tour guide and very personable! He answered many questions and went the extra mile when we left our bag at the office. The tour is great, I recommend brining loose Qs if you want to purchase wine and chocolate. The tour shows a lot of special parts of Guatemala you won’t see if you just hang around the city of Antigua. Highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Dec 2023

    Thank you for your glowing feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Giovanni made your tour memorable with his knowledge and personal touch. Your recommendation to bring loose Qs for wine and chocolate is noted and will surely benefit future travelers. We're delighted that our tour allowed you to discover the special parts of Guatemala beyond Antigua. We appreciate your high recommendation!

    A really fun ride and super interesting and beautiful villages tour

    Paul_K, Nov 2023
    This was a fantastic adventure. The macadamia farm is so beautiful, and the extensive knowledge of the farm tour guide was fascinating. The Jade workshop was super interesting for the overview of the entire operation from the mines to the end products. Each of the villages were beautiful, and hearing about the history of how the villages began, along with the building of their churches, was amazing. The chocolate factory wine tours were super entertaining and educational, and the samples were delicious. Our guide Mario (super nice individual) was outstanding with his knowledge of everything we saw and his ability to answer all questions asked. The meal we had at Sabores de me Pueblo was delicious, and the view from their backyard (as well as our stop at San Juan del Obispo) of Antigua and the surrounding towns and overall area was spectacular. Again, we cannot say enough about how great Mario was as our tour guide. We had a great time riding in the mule, which was well maintained and ran great. We would fully recommend this trip to all that are interested.
