Had a wonderful time on the Lake Atitlan tour. We were short on time, so this covered what we wanted to see/do. Definitely worth it, even with the couple of hours each way of travel time to/from Antigua. Bring water/drink/snacks for the ride. We lucked out on a fairly smooth boat ride across Lake Atitlan. Got a little wet on the way to San Pedro La Laguna; recommend bringing a small towel in case. Was fine/dry on the way back. Normally it's the opposite. San Pedro La Laguna was amazing! Visually stunning, and there's some pleasant street music too! Main street from the harbor was a well maintained but steep hill. No problem for us, but may be tough if you're mobility challenged; they do have tuk tuks that'll take you up/down the hill. On our trip, we visited a handicraft shop with wood carvings and paintings; a local herbal medicinal place with demo; and a textile weaving demo by a local Mayan. Very informational, and of course, lots of shopping options!

We had an excellent experience. We were picked up on time from our hotel. The guide explained the tour clearly. We visited a couple of indigenous settlements around the lake, attended a demonstration of the weaving process, and had plenty of shopping opportunities. The guide was knowledgeable, courteous, and was able to keep the schedule even though it was a busy market day with a lot of traffic and people on the streets. We returned at the appointed hour.

I'm so happy we decided to do this tour. At first I thought it was going to be too long of a day with all the driving, but it was so worth it. Our tour guide spoke most of the way to the lake which made the drive fast. It was also great to see all the different communities along the way. Loved this tour and would recommend it to everyone!
