For Spring Break, my family of 4 traveled to Antigua, Guatemala. We were lucky to locate ViaGuate as our transportation and tour provider. Hernan, the owner/manager, was very responsive to our needs throughout our travel. Alejandro, one of his tour guides, spoke very good English, provided excellent tour services, and even provided great local recommendations for shops and restaurants. We used ViaGuate for our airport transportation services as well as private tours of Picaya Volcano, Monterrico Beach, Lake Atitlan, and the Iximche ruins. I would highly recommend ViaGuate and all of these tours. Thanks again Hernan and Alejandro for your excellent service!
