Description
Upon arrival to Panajachel we will take a public boat to cross Lake Atitlan and visit Santiago Atitlan, where you’ll learn about local Saint "Maximon." Enjoy the vibrant colors and local flavor of this village.
Santiago is the most popular lakeside settlement outside Panajachel, and many atitecos (as its people are known) cling to a traditional Tz’utujil Mayan lifestyle. Women weave and wear huipiles (tunics) embroidered with brilliantly colored birds and flowers, and the cofradías town’s maintain the ceremonies and rituals of tradition, the syncretic traditions and practices of Mayan Catholicism. There’s a large art and crafts scene here as well. Back to Panajachel.
In Panajachel you will enjoy a delicious lunch (NOT INCLUDED)
Explore the village of Panajachel, a pre-Columbian town of Kakchiquel origin, settled next to the river with the same name and on the lakeside of Atitlán. The town witnessed the final battle between Spaniards and their Kakchiquel allies against the Tzujiles and it also was a settlement point for the Franciscan missionaries who founded a convent nearby.
In the afternoon, you’ll be returned to Antigua Guatemala.

Boa experiência
Gostamos bastante, com alguns detalhes pequenos. Sem esperas longas em nenhum momento. O taxa de barco público de Panajachel para Santiago Atitlan é um acerto. Ficou um pouco longo na parte do meio. Nada grave, mas vale saber antes de reservar.

Boa escolha se for sua primeira vez em Antigua Guatemala. Nunca teríamos chegado a Taxa de barco público de Panajachel para Santiago Atitlan por conta própria. Serviu para decidir onde voltar no resto da semana. Comparei preços antes de reservar e essa era a melhor opção. Guia correto, mas o microfone falhava de vez em quando. O áudio cortava em alguns trechos.

Exceeded expectations
Delivered everything it promised and then some. We had no idea about the history of Santiago. I have already recommended it to two friends travelling next month.

Volvería a hacerlo
Reservamos a último momento y fue un acierto total. El traslados ida y vuelta desde su hospedaje en antigua Guatemala llegó justo cuando lo necesitábamos. Ideal si querés salir un día de la ciudad. Totalmente recomendado.

Cumplió con todo lo que prometía y un poco más. El tarifa de barco público de Panajachel a Santiago Atitlán nos resolvió el día. La organización se notó, cero improvisación. Excelente guía, con muchísimo conocimiento de la historia del lugar.

Correcto
Nos fuimos conformes. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. Nos sirvió para decidir a dónde volver el resto de la semana. De todo el recorrido, Santiago es lo que más recuerdo. El wifi que prometían no funcionaba. Recomendable en general.
