Tons of fun! - I had a super fun tour with Pedro as my guide! I was lucky that on the tour was myself and one other person, so Pedro took his time explaining everything and even took us to a few extra spots for excellent views. (He was an excellent photographer for us!) Pedro was attentive making sure we were safe and that we understood how to operate the ATVs. He was super knowledgeable. He often helped the workshoppers translate and communicate with us. You can tell he loves his job and thus, helped me love Atitlán even more. It was my first time riding an ATV so beginners are welcome to Simoon Tours. Santa Catarina Palopó and San Antonio Palopó felt less touristy than the other pueblos around the lake, making them feel more quaint and less commercialized. Being with a guide made navigating them much easier. You get to avoid the crowds and see more locals.

Private tour - If I could give more than 5 stars I would, my guide Pedro was hands down one of the most charismatic, uplifting and reassuring guide I could’ve asked for. Not a dull moment! Pedro did not miss in none of the recommendations and spots he took us too, from food, tours and his recommendations with everything else. I truly thank him for going above and beyond on the tour and making my family feel welcome! ASK FOR PEDRO in your upcoming tour in Panajachel!! And a sincere thank you to Pedro

Two reasons why I gave... - Two reasons why I gave this a four star. In the description, it said we were going to go on a coffee tour taste coffee, see how the process is made, etc. that never happened. We stopped by a very small coffee shop to buy coffee. Also, this tour was supposed to be four hours and we got back in less than three. However, our guide was great and it was fun to visit to Mayan villages.
