Excursión a Santiago Atitlán

Acerca de este viaje

Santiago Atitlán es la mayor de las comunidades lacustres, famosa por su escena artesanal y su fuerte identidad indígena, reflejada en la vestimenta tradicional y el dialecto maya que allí se habla. Tu visita comienza cuando te reúnas con tu guía maya de habla inglesa en el muelle. Explorarás el centro de la ciudad, incluido un pintoresco parque central y una iglesia católica construida en el siglo XVI por franciscanos. Santiago fue también un foco de resistencia indígena durante la guerra civil de Guatemala en la década de 1980.

A continuación, visitarás una de las atracciones culturales más fascinantes de Guatemala: Maximón, una deidad venerada en todo el altiplano. Se cree que combina a los dioses mayas con el Judas bíblico, Maximón es una efigie a la que los adoradores hacen ofrendas y piden bendiciones. Cada año se le pasea por la ciudad y se le instala en un nuevo hogar, donde los visitantes le presentan sus respetos entre ofrendas de cigarrillos, licor y velas encendidas: una escena peculiar que no querrás perderte.

El recorrido continúa en el bullicioso mercado de Santiago, rebosante de frutas, verduras y pescado frescos, donde seleccionarás los ingredientes para la siguiente parada. El almuerzo tendrá lugar en la acogedora casa de tu guía maya, donde aprenderás a hacer tortillas artesanales y disfrutarás de una comida casera: una visión íntima e inolvidable de la vida familiar maya local.

Andres was our guide. We had an amazing experience. They picked us up from the hotel, we hiked at our pace and cabins were clean and well maintained. Food was hot and delicious. I would highly recommend the company and our guide.

Acatenango with horses and comfort glamping My wife and I booked the Acatenango Volcano overnight hike with comfort glamping and also booked two horses to escort each of us up Acatenango so we could have the energy to do the Fuego hike that evening. We initially booked the 4x4 trek but due to local municipality issues we had to switch to horses which ended up being a far more fun experience as we got to enjoy the stunning trail. Trek Guatemala reached out well before to inform of us of changes. Trek Guatemala was very professional, it was nice to meet with them the afternoon before to go over things. Everyone was friendly and approachable and they were easy to contact via whatsapp. Taking the horses was fantastic and the guys who took us up made it in 3 hours than the usual 6-7 hours it takes the average visitor. The campsite was set up well and was just as described, food, amenties and all. But by far the best part of the Trek Guatemala experience was our guide, Rodri. He's an impressive athlete who was knowledgeable, personable, patient and fully supportive throughout, especially when we struggled a bit through the rain on the way back from Fuego. Being outdoors is second nature to him and it shows.

Very well organized. Mar is amazing and well organized my trip to Acatenango and Tikal National park. She is very responsive and answered all my questions Chris was my guide for the volcano hike, and he's pleasant, responsible and motivating.

Amazing experience! Rolo our guide made it a great 2 days. High energy and seeing fuego made it all worth it. Was super challenging, more than we thought. Enjoyed this trip with it being a much smaller tour group so you aren’t overcrowded with a large tour group! Tip carry less water to start. You can buy more along the way!

AMAZING Was so amazing. Was not a busy tour which made the experience more personable. Our guide Rolo was 10/10, great energy and support. The hike was super challenging. Was super cold the weather changed a lot during the hike. I would carry less water to start. There are stops along the way you can buy more at.

Amazing experience hiking Acatenango! Can’t say enough good things about Trek Guatemala and our guide Rodrigo. The hiking adventure was amazing, really difficult but Rodrigo was fun, encouraging and well prepared. He has excellent English. Our group size was small which made all the difference. We passed other large groups booked with other companies. So so glad we booked with Trek Guatemala! Our orientation with Mar was also very helpful. Lunch was delicious! 10/10 experience with @trekguatemala!

Beautiful experience Great experience! One of our friends got sick the night before the hike and they were very thoughtful and rescheduled the hike for him. The guide we had, Alejandro, was a great guide to have and provided a great experience. For someone who want a more private experience instead of the big tours with 30+ people (we had a group of 5 including the guide), this is the best! They care about sustainable tourism.

EXCELENTE Excelente guía, nos daba consejos de cómo colocar nuestra postura y agarre de stick. Las cabañas tienen una vista más privilegiada que otras agencias. Te incluye comida caliente. Servicio amable.

Unforgettable experience commanded by our guide Josue and the Trek Guatemala team. We were a group of 7, all inexperienced in hiking but the route that Josue choose and the rhythm that we kept made us reach the awesome camp base cabins in 4.5 hours! We didn’t do the fuego and the summit hikes, as we were too tired but also because the views even from inside our cabin were espectacular.

This was a super difficult but rewarding experience. I’m 60 and this is the hardest hike I have ever done but I made it! Andres and Rolo where encouraging and supportive. They never asked me to hike faster than I could. Once you reach the camp, see Fuego eruptions every 5-15 minutes all night. Sleep on a foam mattress in provided sleeping bags with a pillow, this gets you out of the wind. Hot dinner with a view but follow the instructions and bring layers to be comfortable.

Toughest hike of my life Very cool experience, but very hard to hike. But I’m 60 years old and I made it, slowly. Andres and Rolo were the best! They were both patient and supportive and never rushed me to hike faster. The views were amazing and Fuego erupted every 5-15 minutes all night. It was cold and windy at the top so follow all the layering instructions. The cabins were cold but got you out of the wind. With layers of clothing, I slept well.

Unforgettable experience! Did the overnight Acatenango hike with Trek Guatemala and would definitely recommend it! The pre-hike briefing in Antigua with Mar was great! She explained everything (what to bring, how the hike works, where to grab last minute snacks) and helped us with all our questions. Awesome start to the trip and even included a welcome beer! Our guide Diego was awesome—local guy, very knowledgeable and was always happy to answer our odd questions. When the weather changed, Diego made the call of hiking Fuego early on day 2. Worked out perfectly with a beautiful sunrise hike, then summitted a cloudy/super windy Acatenango. Unforgettable experience!

Just book! We completed the four‑day trek from Antigua to Lake Atitlán with Trek Experience, and it was a beautiful and varied journey. The route offered a mix of landscapes, changing scenery each day, and plenty of moments to enjoy the surroundings at a comfortable pace. Throughout the trek we were very well taken care of. The team was organized, attentive, and consistently supportive. The guides were kind, capable, and knowledgeable, creating a relaxed atmosphere while keeping everything running smoothly. The cook and logistical staff also did an excellent job — meals were tasty and thoughtfully prepared, and the daily setup was always ready when we arrived at camp. The tents were surprisingly comfortable, even more so than some hotel rooms we’ve stayed in, which made the evenings a pleasant part of the experience. Overall, this trek was well‑organized, enjoyable, and a great way to experience the landscapes between Antigua and Lake Atitlán. Trek Experience delivered a reliable and memorable adventure.
