Day by day itinerary

  1. 1Visit Copan!⌄

    Your journey begins with an early pick-up from your hotel in either Antigua or Guatemala City depending on the option you choose. Settle in for an exciting day ahead as we prepare for the cross-country adventure. Travel comfortably in our shuttle bus as we make our way from Guatemala to the enchanting lands of Honduras. Witness the changing landscapes and anticipate the historical wonders that await you.

    Dive deep into the heart of Maya history with our knowledgeable bilingual guides. Uncover the secrets of its hieroglyphics and wander through ancient plazas and temples, feeling the presence of a once-great civilization. Here, marvel at the intricately carved stelae and altars that depict various rulers of Copán. Each monument tells a story, revealing insights into the ancient Maya's lives, politics, and beliefs. But Copán is more than just ruins. The site is nestled in a lush valley, surrounded by nature. You'll likely encounter local wildlife as you explore, including vibrant tropical birds and perhaps even a curious monkey or two. The park's natural beauty adds another layer to your experience, blending history with the tranquility of the surrounding forest. This blend of cultural richness and natural splendor makes Copán National Park unique and unforgettable.

    After a day of exploration, unwind at the comfortable Hotel Berakah. Reflect on the day's discoveries and enjoy the hospitality that makes Honduras a warm and welcoming place to visit.

  2. 2Return to Guatemala⌄

    As the dawn breaks at 5:30 am, your second day begins with an early start, ensuring you make the most of the tranquil morning hours. After a restful night at Hotel Berakah, we embark on our return journey to Antigua or Guatemala City at 6:00 am. The early morning ride offers a serene experience, with the first light casting a golden hue over the landscapes of Honduras and Guatemala. Concluding your historical adventure, we'll drop you off at your original hotel. Please note: For guests selecting the Antigua option, our shuttle will conveniently pick you up directly from your hotel. If you opt for a pickup from Guatemala City, we'll arrange for you to be picked up at your hotel and then transported to a central meeting point – the Shell Aldana gas station located on Roosevelt Highway. Here, you'll join our shuttle for the onward journey, and this is where you will be dropped on the return. We've streamlined this process to ensure a smooth and efficient start to your adventure!
