Our Eco-Tours & Hikes

Discover San Juan La Laguna

Explore With Local Guides

The best way to understand San Juan La Laguna is to walk with someone who lives here.

We organize hikes, cultural experiences, workshops, and local tours with guides and partners from the area. Some take you up into the mountains. Some take you into the village. Some are simple, short, and close to MayAchik.

Two local experiences – weaving introduction and stingless bees tour – are included with every stay, so you can begin connecting with the place before you decide what else to explore.
