Pick-Up Details:
We pick up our guests at the dock of their hotel on the shores of the lake in Panajachel or Santa Cruz. If your hotel does not have a dock, the meeting point will be at the Porta Hotel dock in Panajachel or the main wharf in Santa Cruz.
A private powerboat will be waiting for us, and we’ll navigate in the lake for around 30 minutes until getting to San Juan La Laguna Town, our first stop.
On the San Juan La Laguna Town visit, you'll get to learn the ancestral art of Natural Dye of Fabrics, Medicinal Herbs Garden & Fine Artisanal Chocolate factory. After this visit, we`ll take a boat ride to San Pedro La Laguna Town to know why it is so popular and take some pictures.
We´ll walk around and get to know all the little businesses here and why this place receives the tag of a hippie town. Santiago Atitlan town will be waiting for us across the lake. Get ready to enjoy another 30-minute ride through the lake. Take advantage of the scenery and capture beautiful pictures to take back home!
This is the place where we´ll get to know the religious syncretism, a combination between the Mayan religion and Christianity. We´ll visit the Cristian church and the main Street. Lunch will be taken at a nice restaurant. The boat ride to get back to Panajachel will take around 25 minutes. Enjoy!
