From Star Wars film sets to volcanoes and rain forests, hidden Mayan cities to scenic colonial towns—if there’s one country that most epitomizes the Central American ethos, it has to be Guatemala.
On this customized trip, you’ll enjoy a comprehensive private tour of Antigua, a UNESCO heritage site that was once the capital of the Kingdom of Guatemala. You’ll trek active volcanoes and relax on the shores of Lake Atitlán. Stop by an organic coffee cooperative, take a rain forest boat along the Rio Dulce, visit the sprawling archaeological Mayan city of Tikal and explore the country’s vast caves—all with your own private car and driver.
