Aída has managed all our travel arrangements for our trip through Guatemala, to Flores, Lake Atitlán, Livingston, Antigua Guatemala, and Guatemala City. The process was easy and very fast on her part, in addition to answering our questions with great patience and professionalism. Thanks to her, the trip went wonderfully

Incredibly smooth journey and our driver was so kind and warm hearted. We were picked up from our hostel right on time and dropped off in a very quiet area easy to get to the boats. I really appreciate you all and your quick responses online, I was charged 3 times bc the browser and they were quick to issue refunds. Thank you!!!

On a last trip to Central America take two services in Guatego. The first from Panajachel to Antigua. The hours said 12.00pm and 3 hours to Antigua. In the end we left 12.30pm (minor transfer delay) and took almost 4 hours. It didn't hurt us much. The problem was on the Tegucigalpa to La Ceiba service. The ticket, bought in Guatego, on Cristina transports, said the bus left at 7.30am. At the terminal we were told that they do NOT have this service, that the bus left at 8am. We did not find it serious and waited quietly in the terminal. He left at 8am, as planned. According to Guatego's information, the trip takes 7 hours (I just checked back). Departing 7.30am we were supposed to be in La Ceiba at 2.30pm; our ferry to Roatan departed at 4.30pm. I thought it was loose. Still, leaving at 8am, there was a certain amount of slack (assuming the bus finally took about 8 hours, not the planned 7). The reality is that the bus takes about 10 hours to travel. We missed the ferry. We lost the first night (already paid hotel). We had to pay for an additional hotel in La Ceiba. All to trust (even with a slack) in the travel times indicated by Guatego. When we asked about Transportes Cristina and other passengers, they told us that it ALWAYS takes more than 9 hours. And it did.
Gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Los tiempos de viaje en la región pueden variar dependiendo de las condiciones del tráfico, el estado de las carreteras y la ruta que el conductor tome ese día. Las duraciones que indicamos son estimadas bajo condiciones normales, pero en ocasiones pueden presentarse retrasos imprevistos. Lamentamos que esto haya afectado su conexión en La Ceiba y agradecemos mucho que nos compartas tus comentarios. Por favor contactanos al correo about@guatego.com para poder compensarte.
The drivers packed the car full of people which wasn't bad, the driving was good for the long duration of the drive then half the folks got onto another transport midway which made our journey a bit more comfortable. The staff was overall pretty friendly and let us stop for a bathroom break and food/drinks. The price wasn't bad but honestly we could've gotten a private transfer for comparable amount and less people. The driver didn't drop us off at our hotel and we ended up having to walk 3 blocks with our luggage to the hotel on cobble stone road which was very annoying and frustrating especially given the cost of the journey. Overall I would use this again but be mindful of where we're going, how many people will be in your shuttle and how long it takes/cost.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you felt the driving was safe, the journey comfortable overall, and that our team was friendly and accommodating with stops along the way. During high season, due to increased demand, traffic restrictions, and operational logistics, pickup and drop-off points may vary from the usual locations. In some destinations it’s not always possible for shared shuttles to reach every hotel door-to-door. We truly appreciate your understanding and your advice to future travelers, as being aware of service type, route conditions, and seasonality can make a big difference in expectations. We’re happy to hear you would consider using our service again and hope to assist you on a future trip.
The van picked me up 50 minutes late. The instructions were to call the company if the van was more than 15 minutes late. No one answered the phone. No one responded to my text. I was the last one picked up. There were 13 people and I was crammed into the back with 3 other large people. My legs didn't fit. And I was the very last person dropped off.
Hi, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the delay and the lack of communication during your Guatemala City Airport to Antigua transfer. We understand how uncomfortable it must have been being the last pickup and experiencing limited space in the back of the vehicle during your GUA Airport to Antigua transfer. We also regret that you were unable to reach our team when you needed assistance. Your comments have been shared with our operations team for review so we can improve punctuality, communication, and passenger comfort. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

I can only recommend GuateGo. I've been using their shuttles to get through whole Guatemala and they've always been on time, they were always available during their working hours and the service was super helpful and friendly! When I got sick they made a rebooking for me without any problems!
