An Unforgettable Adventure in Guatemala with Old Town Outfitters Thank you so much to Old Town Outfitters for organizing an absolutely incredible 10-day journey through Guatemala for our family! From start to finish, the planning and execution were nothing short of flawless.
Matt thoughtfully arranged every detail of our itinerary, including nice hotels, reliable transportation with trusted drivers, and guided activities that left us in awe. The highlight for us was the 4-day mountain biking adventure through the stunning Guatemalan outbacks.
A special shoutout to Pepian & the Old Town Outfitters team, who guided us from our first day volcano excursion, to our unforgettable mountain biking trip and stayed connected with us for the remainder of our trip. Their professionalism, care, and attention to detail were exceptional. Whether it was picking us up promptly at our hotel, anticipating our needs, helping us navigate challenges on the biking trails, or staying connected via WhatsApp throughout our stay, Pepian & the team truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience.
This trip was easily one of the most memorable family adventures we’ve ever had, and we are deeply grateful to Old Town Outfitters for delivering an extraordinary experience!

Awesome experience! We took the Acatenango Day Hike today with Ronoldo as our guide. What an AWESOME experience! While the hike was amazing, Ronoldo made it so much better. He was patient with us, kept us laughing and shared lots of information along the way. It would not have been the same without him.
