We had an amazing time on our excursion. Cerro de la Cruz-The drive up was amazing with a stunning view. Earth Lodge- Well worth the hike. Beautiful views with amazing food! Some of the best burgers we've had in a while. Hobbitenango-Get ready for a magical ride up. The sunset was amazing! Our Guide- Diego He was amazing! He was very knowledgeable.

The Simoon crew was outstanding. They were efficient and friendly with the ATV riding and tour of the Coffee Plantation and the visit to Cerro de la Cruz were very enjoyable. The owner walked us to the clinic close to their business where we could get our COVID test prior to departing for the U.S. Overall, they were a terrific organization offering a fun excursion

The Pacific Tour is designed for motorcycle enthusiasts who want to experience Guatemala from its tropical side. The first section of this trip will take you from Antigua's 4500 ft elevation to Escuintla at nearly sea level and from there to Monterrico on the Pacific Coast. The highlight of this epic ride is raft crossing of the Chiquimulilla Mangrove Forest. Once in Monterrico you'll be happy to change your riding gear for some shorts, t-shirt and flip-flops. You will have all afternoon to chill out in your hotel pool or the shady deck of one of the many beach restaurants. Good food and ice cold drinks are plentiful in Monterrico, the choice is yours. On day two you'll be looping back to Antigua on a different but not less scenic route enjoying the beat of the Royal Enfield thump.
