Lake Atitlan Guided Tour by Boat from Panajachel

About this activity

Cruise across Lake Atitlán and visit the charming village of San Juan La Laguna on this full-day shared sightseeing tour. Surrounded by three majestic volcanoes along its southern shore.

Join this tour to immerse yourself in authentic Mayan traditions. In San Juan La Laguna, you’ll have the opportunity to witness a live demonstration by local Mayan women, who use tree bark, natural plants, and vegetables to extract vibrant natural dyes. Learn how these ancestral techniques are used to color handwoven textiles, preserving centuries-old craftsmanship.

Continue Lake Atitlán by boat as you travel to Santiago Atitlán to meet the Tz’utujil Maya community. Discover their rich spiritual beliefs, including a visit to the revered Mayan deity Maximón, also known as Rilaj Mam, considered a powerful grandfather spirit.
