Bon voyage est une très bonne agence. Nous avons utilisé ses services principalement pour les transports (voiture avec chauffeur) entre les villes et tout s'est très bien passé : ponctualité, qualité des véhicules, gentillesse des chauffeurs...
En plus, les trajets étaient parfois ponctués de visites de sites intéressants!

voyage au Top
Nous avons cherché comment nous déplacer facilement et rapidement durant notre road trip Guatemala-Belize-Honduras. Après avoir prospecté sur plusieurs sites, nous sommes tombés sur l'agence "Bon Voyage" qui propose plein de services. Au départ, nous n'étions intéressés uniquement que par les déplacements car nous avions déjà effectué toutes nos réservations. Nous avons finalement pris également le service de guides que nous n'avons pas regretté ensuite. Arnaud, le directeur, s'est déplacé personnellement le premier jour à notre hotel pour nous confier tous les derniers détails du voyage : vouchers, guides, RDV et même un tel pour se joindre plus facilement. Le Top. Les navettes ont toujours été à l'heure, tout est parfaitement organisé. Les guides ont été un plus et même véritablement une superbe surprise à Atitlan avec Humberto parlant le Maya, nous montrant des petits coins sympas, ils connaissaient tout le monde...A Tikal, un guide francophone...
Si c'était à refaire, je commencerais d'abord par contacter l'agence car ils connaissent les hotels, les restau sympas, les choses à ne pas louper et même les excursions, randos, sports...à pratiquer sur place, qu'ils peuvent gérer pour vous.
Marie et Greg.

Agence de Pros franchement sympas
Nous revenons d’un séjour merveilleux au Guatemala, organisé par l’agence d’Arnaud. Nous ne pouvons qu’etre dithyrambiques. Ils sont pro, sympas, réactifs, disponibles, à l’ecoute. Et ils connaissent vraiment bien le pays, histoire de vous faire découvrir des petits coins où les touristes ne sont pas très présents (voire pas du tout).

Perfect!
We recently got back home from a speechless 20 day trip trough Guatemala & Belize, organized by Bon Voyage. A few months before, I e-mailed and skyped with a girl that works for the agency. She did an amazing job to make sure that everything I wanted to do was in our program in a logic and fun way. (Thank you Bettina!) The day we arrived at Guatemala City Airport there was a friendly driver waiting for us. He drove us to Antigua, where we stayed in Casa Naranjo (owners are super sweet, and the stay itself is stunning!) Also, when we walked into the room, there was a very beautiful book with the entire program, a lot of maps and hand written information wat was important for us, vouchers, foods and a local phone (if there was any problem and we didn't had WiFi to call trough WhatsApp, we could use this one). They also made time to come to Casa Naranjo to explain everything the first morning. (but in the book everything was already explained very good, all vouchers, everything was just there..)



First we had a lovely free day to explore the beautiful city of Antigua. Our first activity was the hiking of the pacaya vulcano, very good organized and fun, but nothing compared to the hike of Acentanengo & Fuego I will talk about later. Then we visited the colourful market of Chichicastenango, where Arnaud told us there is more to do then only the market, and yes there was!! His recommendation took us to the cemetery (worth visiting) and also to a place on a mountain where they did a Mayan ceremony (cool to see, but it is a little hike).



Our next big activity was the visit of Lake Atitlan. Again they arranged a very cool place to sleep (Utz Jay)!!! But the most awesome thing we're going to remember for the rest of our lives is our guide Humberto that really took us around the lake. Kayaking, Hiking, eating at an amazing place in a local village during the awesome hike. He took us to a place where women showed how all the typical fabric is made! A very very big thank you for Humberto!!! Keep up the good work!



After that, the biggest adventure of all: hiking the Acentenango vulcano, during the hike you see a lot of different vegetation and the base camp has a speechless view of the Fuego vulcano, it is optional to also hike to the top of this one, but is is a 4 more hour hike, but it is worth it!!! We went with the company Wichos & Charlie’s. They had fun and crazy guides and a very good organisation. Also big thank you for all the people & guides of this compagnie.



Next stop was Semuc Champey. We stayed two nights in the hostel El Portal nearby the national park (the closest one near the park), so early in the morning you could visit Semuc when there is not one tourist! We were the first ones in the park and thereby took great pictures and saw amazing animals. You can easily go to the park yourself without guide and also visit caves with a candle in your hand organized on the day itself.

Back in Hostel El portal they had very good food, nice people and a pool! Everything you need to relax in the evening.



Our trip to Flores was a long one, but accept it and your day will be much better. We stayed 2 nights a little bit out of Flores, the place called El Remate. Again a room with most beautiful view of the lake. Not far from this place is the national park of Tikal. With a shuttle that picked us up at 3:30 am we could enjoy the sunrise & sounds of all animals. After that, a guide took us around the place with interesting stories.



We traveled to Belize (Caye Caulker) with excellent transportion services. Everytime, we just gave the vouchers to the driver that Bon Voyage arranged for you.



Once in Caye Caulker, we had 3 days without any activity planed by Bon Voyage. But they sure given us the best hotel of the island! We stayed in a colourfull cabana with fresh coffee you could make yourself in the morning, we were given our own bikes, free snorkeling gear, kayak, and so much more. Thank you team of Colinda Cabana’s!



After this relaxing time we went back for our last 5 days to the south east of Guatemala, Rio Dulce.

We stayed in a 2 floor cabin right next to the lake. With beautiful views and sounds everywhere. The Hostel Finca Tatin really provides you everything you need, to discover this beautiful river.



Then there it was, our trip back home, with one more evening in our home base, Casa Naranjo, Antigua. A speechless Friday evening never to forget in Antigua! Big thank you again Arnaud for arranging earlier transportation from Rio Dulce to Antigua! Otherwise we would not have had such a good evening! Be sure to go out if you are there in the weekend!


A big thank you for the hole team of Bon Voyage for good collaboration, professional guidance and recommendations , well organized trips ...

We definatly recommend you!!

Regards,
Tim & Fanny

Excellent voyage au Guatemala
3 semaines inoubliables en passant par Antigua, Pacaya, Chichicastenango, Lac Atitlan, Semuc, Yaxha, Tikal, rio dulce et Livingston.... Séjour très bien organisé, des hôtels bien situés, toujours propres, agréables et bon accueil. Une très bonne coordination des transports, aucun soucis à se faire. Lorena présente, joignable à tout moment était pour nous rassurant. Nous avons apprécié le carnet de voyages mis à notre disposition, avec les cartes, les conseil proposés pour manger, sortir, les horaires des transport… Ce voyages nous a permis de découvrir une belle culture avec ces traditions, paysages, histoires, accompagné de guides compétents et très sympathiques.
Nous recommandons sans hésitation l'agence d'Arnaud!
