Our guide Rosa was so great and accommodating throughout the day. We had two young children with us and she was very flexible on timing, what villages to go to, and what to see. She was very knowledgeable and spoke great English and was super sweet with our kids. Wonderful tour and wonderful guide!

Continuing our journey, we arrive at Jaibalito, a town blessed with stunning lake vistas and fresh mountain air. As we stroll through its quaint streets, our knowledgeable guide will regale you with tales of local customs and traditions, offering insights into the diverse cultures that call Lake Atitlán home.

**Tzununá:**
Next on our itinerary is Tzununá, a hidden gem known for its breathtaking beauty and tranquility. Here, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the laid-back atmosphere of this lesser-visited town and learn more about its unique heritage.

**San Juan La Laguna:**
Our final destination is San Juan La Laguna, accessible by a scenic collective boat ride across the sparkling waters of Lake Atitlán. This vibrant town is renowned for its colorful streets and thriving art scene, with many residents being talented artists who express their Mayan worldview through vibrant paintings.

**Cultural Immersion and Activities:**
In San Juan, prepare for an enriching cultural experience as we delve into the traditions of the local community. Participate in a chocolate tour, where you'll learn about the ancient art of chocolate-making, from bean to bar. Discover the intricate process of natural dyeing used in textile production and gain insight into the significance of Mayan honey.

After our cultural explorations, we'll gather for a delicious lunch at a local eatery, offering a taste of authentic Guatemalan cuisine.

**Return to Panajachel:**
As our day comes to a close, we'll board another collective boat for the return journey to Panajachel or Santa Cruz.
