Private transportation is a good option for travelers who desire comfort and flexibility while exploring a new country. These personal shuttles will take you anywhere in Guatemala and can typically accommodate changes in your schedule.

The shuttles are air-conditioned minibuses (passenger vans). They can typically seat 8–10 people and are in good condition. The shuttles are driven by professional, punctual drivers — rest assured, you won’t be left on a curb waiting for them to show up. This transportation option is ideal for travelers who want the freedom to determine their travel route but not the associated stress of driving. Sit back and enjoy the beautiful Guatemalan landscape without ever sitting behind the steering wheel.

Each private transport includes one hour of free wait time. That means you can stop and explore a little during your trip. You might take photographs of scenic highland passes or stop for food at a local eatery. You can also customize your private transport with tours along the way, including bird watching expeditions and visits to cultural attractions.
