Today, our private driver will pick you up at 7:00 a.m. and take you on a panoramic (~ 2 hour) drive to visit the mystical city of Chichicastenango (Thursdays and Sundays only, otherwise directly to Lake Atitlan). Located at 2500 meters above sea level, this city is famous for its market on Thursdays & Sundays, where spats of traditionally dressed villagers in a kaleidoscope of colors, come to sell their very colorful textiles, fruits, vegetables and flowers, something that you will enjoy during your Guatemala holidays. Also worth a visit is the peaceful yet colorful cemetery. After lunch, depart for magical Lake Atitlan with direct transfer to your hotel on Lake Atitlan.

Take a private boat tour to the lake side villages around Lake Atitlan. Your lanchero (boat driver) will pick you up from your hotel at 1:30 p.m. and take you by boat to three of the Indian villages along the shore of the lake. Your guide will share many insights on local customs and traditions with you. Enjoy the spectacular scenery the lake has to offer and learn more about the villagers, whose traditional costumes still vary from one village to the other, as well as their history. We recommend having lunch in Santiago Atitlán at Posada de Santiago, at Restaurante El Pescador, or at a local restaurant in Panajachel. Please ask your guide for recommendations.
