LAKE ATITLAN BOAT TOUR

Departures: Daily

Description:

This program is part of GA’s Traditional One Day Tours.   The tour can begin from Antigua Guatemala or Guatemala City depending where you are staying.  If you are looking to visit Lake Atitlan for one day this is a great option since you are visiting Panajachel and Santiago de Atitltan in a boat.   You will have plenty of time to enjoy one of the most beautiful lake in the world. Atitlan owes its grandeur to its enormous size and spectacular, volcanic setting. Lake Atitlan was formed when a volcanic caldera depleted of its magma. Three stately volcanoes, Atitlan, Toliman and San Pedro rise gracefully from its southern shore, their perfect cones reflected in the azure mirror of the lake.  Weaving made and worn by the Maya-Tzutujil and Cakchiquel women who live around the lake and many of the men also wear traditional, hand-woven clothing.
