Streets are cobblestone so get ready for a bumpy ride. Once out of the city fun riding and nice views. Guide very informative.
This was one of the best and most exciting ATV excursions I have done! You are able to drive amongst the locals and learn so much history about the Guatemalan culture and really see Antigua through a different lens. Our guide, Daryl, was so kind and patient with our group, and he always assured that we were safe and all together. Overall, we had a fantastic time and I would definitely recommend booking this excursion!
This excursion was really cool!!! Traveling up through the mountains was so beautiful. I wish the time at Hobbitenango was a bit longer, but it was still pretty awesome. Driving on the cobblestone is a challenge, but we still enjoyed it as we got to explore more of Antigua while riding through the town. Our guide made us feel extremely comfortable, got us through the busy-ness of the Antigua streets, and we got to enjoy time as a group getting to know each other. We enjoyed learning about the chocolate/cacao process and the vibe overall. I Highly recommend!!
The ATV tour was incredible! We had access to locations and information that we never would have had without the tour. Our guide was extremely friendly and the experience was as amazing!
Our family of 6 did the ATV mountain tour. Jose Danilo was our guide, and he was great with our kids! We had three main stops: the cross on the hill, Hobbitenango, and the chocolate factory. The lunch offered next to the factory was one of the best meals we had all trip! Driving through the towns and remote uphill villages was our favorite thing of all, moreso than the stops themselves. What a fun day!
A very beautiful experience and a nice service, and the guides were very kind; Oscar and Edgar are excellent people. Many blessings and success in your work
My daughter and I did the ATV Mountain Tour with Jose as our guide. He was amazing! We had the best day. Learned a lot from Jose and loved the variety in the places we visited.
It was a great day with many beautiful experiences. The tour guide was very professional and accompanied us throughout the day. We had a lot of fun in the group.
This was an excellent tour. Hobbitenango was beautiful. The chocolate tour was very cool. Daniel was an excellent guide.
