Escape to two of the most unique and breathtaking locations near Antigua Guatemala with our Hobbitenango & Altamira Tour. This half-day adventure is perfect for families, couples, and anyone looking to experience something different while visiting Antigua. Our first stop is Hobbitenango, a magical place inspired by the movie The Hobbit, nestled in the mountains. Famous for its giant swing and the iconic "Hand of the King" where you can take incredible photos with stunning nature as your backdrop. You'll also have the chance to explore the charming Hobbit-inspired huts. Next, we’ll head to Altamira, where you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the three towering volcanoes that surround Antigua. Altamira offers the best vantage point to capture amazing photos and, for the more adventurous, there's an optional canopy bike ride.

We had a very complete tour! Our guide, Esteban, went out of his way to give us tips and take us to extraordinary places. I highly recommend that you visit Antigua Guatemala and all its surrounding towns because there is much to learn about their customs. The people are very friendly and really look after the tourist.
I was the only person on this tour and I am grateful that they didn’t cancel it on me. The day was amazing. Thank you!
A very good experience and a very good guide, I recommend it 100%
I enjoyed the space to wander around, good activities and our guide José is a happy soul who made the day even more enjoyable 🫶🏼
Thank you Jose and Fernando for the great tour!
Phenomenal is an understatement. Our guide Jose was so knowledgeable and fun. Surpassed all of my expectations!
First timer in Guatemala with friends and this was one of the more relaxed, very photogenic and scenic view point excursions. It was just me and 2 friend, a group of 3 so we felt like the excursion was on our own page and just for us. Our driver we Fernando and our guide was Esteban and it’s were friendly, and amazing. Esteban on the tour took Plenty of photos for us, and stopped when we needed breaks from all the incline walking. MUST HAVES: - water, hydrations packs, good study shoes, bring a fan or hat. It’s A LOT of stairs so be prepared. But overall a great half day!
This is a must do excursion. John was an excellent tour guide and photographer. The views of the land and cities are spectacular. We recommend trying the rope swing for some extra fun.
Awesome 10/10 must do experience! Our tour guide Jose was great and made the experience 10x better. We were picked up exactly at the pickup time and everything went smooth. Definitely a must do tour when visiting Guatemala!
It was an amazing experience with the 2 Jose’s. Great people and a fun time.
