“Really interesting tour learning about not only coffee and macadamia nut production but rural life, Guatemala as a whole and multiple other things. The driver stopped whenever we wanted photographs, anticipated our wishes and even added things outside of the itinerary. I really enjoyed the side excursion to Aliotenango which was totally off the tourist map”
