Lake Atitlán Holidays


south & central america
The mesmerising waters of beautiful Lake Atitlán are surrounded by rolling hills covered with wildflowers, which sit under the watchful eye of three towering volcanoes.

Explore the lake by motor boat or kayak as you visit the bustling towns and pretty villages dotted around the lake.

These villages are steeped in Mayan culture, each with its own distinct identity, and you will see many women proudly wearing their intricately woven outfits, with each village maintaining its own traditional dress.
