Pacific Highlands Tours, Tickets & Excursions

"We had a great guide who spoke good English and was very knowledgeable about Antigua. It was a beautiful day in a beautiful city!"

"Our guide Ramiro was very knowledgeable! His English was perfect and very easy to understand ! He kept us on schedule. The bus on the way over was over crowded and VERY uncomfortable for the long ride . The larger bus on the way back was very needed and appreciated. The lunch was just ok …"

"We rode up into the hills on this private tour from the cruise ship. We toured the cobblestone streets of LaAntigua and San Juan Del Obispo Palace. The weather in the mountains was beautiful. The driver and the tour guide were outstanding! We had a private lunch and a few beers in a local run casual restaurant. We had a wonderful day!"

"The tour was amazing, Ruben was an excellent guide full of information. The driver Miguel was a safe driver with all the crazy drivers around. Highly recommended best tour of our cruise!"

"We had a private tour of Antigua including a trip to the Carolina Textile company and Jade Museum. Irwin was a very special driver and guide. He was very knowledgeable and proud of his country. He went out of his way to please us . We would hire him again if we come back to Guatemala!"

"The tour guide was very informative and easy to understand. He stayed with us as we walked through city. The city was beautiful and full of history. We had a driver and a tour guide. We seen the volcanoes erupting."

"Let me start that I'm picky about my excersions and do as much homework as I can and without a doubt, Erwin's Pacaya Volcano Hike is an incredible excersion. Erwin was kind, intelligent and open, answering a variety of questions about his country and what it's like to live in Guatemala. He's got a nice reliable car with A/C that was clean and comfortable. He was also a safe driver. He prepared us for what we should expect when we got to the base of the trail that would lead us to the volcano. That way we didn't feel overwhelmed by the men selling donkey rides. We hiked with him on a moderate, wide slope while taking in the views of the devastation in the valley and learning more about the area. Once we got higher, we were met with the massive river of freshly hardened lava that had run towards the valley. We then made our way onto the small trail that weaves across. A note here..It would be wise to bring a hiking stick for better stability because of potential loose footing. You will also get to feel the heat coming from deep "vents" on top of the flow. There's a man that sells excellent pizza out on the lava field that will over charge you if you let him. The pizza was quite good but ask for the price first. My only regret was not adding the repelling element that Erwin had also offered after the hike. That would have been cool. Honestly, you can't go wrong with Erwin's Pacaya Volcano Hike he's a kind and intelligent man. Definitely a must do!"

"We had a terrific tour in La Antigua. Our tour guide was right on time, explained whatand when we were doing activities. Off we went to an excellent day of learning about La Antigua. He kept us moving and told us interesting stories and facts of the different places we went. Lunch was terrific. We enjoyed trying on the local clothes and learning how the local women made their clothes. Our stroll through the Casa Santo Domingo, was delightful."

"We were picked up promptly in a cool, clean, air conditioned vehicle. We had a driver and guide, both were dry skilled birders. Because of a flooded road, they had to change plans about where we would bird, but did so with no problem. They were knowledgeable, polite and really wanted to help us find new birds. It was an outstanding excursion and I would highly recommend the tour!"

"Roberto was one of the best (if not THE best) guides we've ever had - and we've been to over 100 countries! Excellent English, extremely personable and outgoing. Very informstive and caring about us. Nice outing to agritourism coffee farm and hotel/restaurant with drinks and large snack, right at the base of 2 volcanoes - one of them active. Saw (and heard rumble) of 3 small ash eruptions! This isca nice relaxing 1/2 day outing as an alternative to a full day outing to Antigua."
