Did the ATV tour at Lake Atitlán with Hessler and it was incredible! We rode through stunning views, visited a local chocolate factory and honey producer, and learned so much about the area. Hessler was the best guide. He was fun, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience unforgettable. This is an absolute must-do when visiting Lake Atitlán!

Amazing ATV Adventure with Xaman Tours! We had an incredible experience with X-Tour by Xaman Tours in San Pedro! We made a spontaneous call in the morning, and an hour later we hit the road. Our guide, José (and his tiny companion 🐶), was outstanding—super knowledgeable, attentive, and highly skilled when it came to the ATVs. He made sure everyone felt comfortable, regardless of their experience level, and adjusted the pace perfectly to match the group’s abilities. The tour took us through several beautiful villages, giving us a glimpse of local life and stunning landscapes. We stopped at breathtaking viewpoints, and one of the highlights was definitely the waterfall, where we could take a short, refreshing break before heading back. What really stood out was José’s dedication to making the experience enjoyable for everyone. He was always checking in, offering helpful tips, and making sure we felt safe while still having fun. No prior ATV experience was needed—he guided us through everything step by step. Tip: Bring swimwear, a towel, a water bottle, and maybe a small snack for the ride. We also had a stop at one of the viewpoints where we could grab some ice cream and cool down with a refreshing drink—definitely a nice bonus! If you’re in San Pedro and looking for an adventurous yet well-organized tour, this is the one! Highly recommended!

We did the X-Men Day Tour with Hessler and had an amazing time! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, sharing lots of interesting information about Lake Atitlán and Guatemala. The tour included two scenic viewpoint stops and a visit to a stunning waterfall. Plus, we got plenty of time to ride the ATV without frequent stops, which made it even more fun. Highly recommend!
