Itinerary

  1. Coban

    Passing by

    Known as the “Imperial City,” Cobán is the capital of Alta Verapaz and our gateway to the region. Its cool climate, traditional architecture, and tranquil atmosphere will transport you to a world far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city.

  2. Lanquin

    Passing by

    A picturesque village nestled in the mountains, famous for being the gateway to Semuc Champey. From here, we will board a 4x4 vehicle that will take us on an adventurous journey, surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenery and local communities.

  3. Semuc Champey

    4 hours Admission included

    The crown jewel. The main destination! It is a natural limestone bridge over 300 meters long, under which the mighty Cahabón River flows. Above this bridge, a series of stunning turquoise natural pools are formed, perfect for swimming and relaxing in the middle of the jungle. It is one of the most photogenic natural wonders in Guatemala.
