The River Canyon is Breathtaking!

The included boat tour was the reason we booked this package, and it was incredible. Traveling down the river was so peaceful, but the best part was entering the main canyon. The sheer limestone walls covered in jungle plants rise straight up from the water. It feels like something out of a movie. It's one of the most beautiful boat rides I've ever taken.

💡 Tip: Sit near the front of the boat (lancha) for the best, unobstructed views and photos as you go through the canyon.

A Different Side of Guatemala

What a fascinating trip! The boat tour started with a stop at the old Spanish fort, Castillo de San Felipe, which was really interesting. But arriving in Livingston was the real highlight. It's completely different from the rest of Guatemala, with a unique Garifuna culture and a Caribbean vibe. We tried some amazing coconut seafood stew ('tapado').

💡 Tip: In Livingston, take a walk away from the main dock to see the local neighborhoods and get a better feel for the town's unique character.

So Much to See on the River!

We loved the included boat tour on the Río Dulce. It wasn't just a trip from A to B; there were so many cool stops. We saw an island covered in water lilies and birds, and even stopped at a spot with natural hot springs right by the river. The kids loved seeing all the different birds in the trees along the canyon walls. A great day on the water for the whole family.

💡 Tip: Wear your swimsuit under your clothes! You might get a chance to take a dip in the warm water of the hot springs.
