Great day trip but way too expensive

Antoine_R, Dec 2024

This a great day trip to Lanquin and Semuc Champey. Guide and driver are both very nice. Car was very comfortable. The only thing is that this tour is way too expensive for what you’re getting. I’d recommend that people stay one night in Lanquin and organize the visits by themselves from there

Response from Host, Dec 2024

The tour was an incredible experience - we had the opportunity to see the caves, go tubing down the river, and visit Semuc Champey with ample free time. The local tour guides were knowledgeable, spoke English extremely well and were lively and fun. I would suggest everyone to keep an open mind about the transport between Lanquin to Semuc Champey - it’s an experience that a few not used to it may be taken aback.

Unforgettable Indiana Jones - like experience!!!

Natasha_R, Apr 2023

Visiting Kanba Caves was a true adrenalin rush!!! Super exciting and challenging for mind and body! Our guide Derik was super nice, savy, and always in control. He knows the area very well despite his young age. Semuc Champey natural pools and surrounding river and falls were gorgeous and refreshing. The car and driver were top notch. It is a private tour so you go at your own pace and respecting your own limits. However I only recommend it for moderately active, highly adventurous adults and fearless kids. Lunch could improve.

Response from Host, Apr 2023
