| About Us |
Adrenalina Tours, is one of the most experienced tour
operators in Guatemala. Our main office is in
Quetzaltenango, the principal city of the Western Highlands
and the second largest city in Guatemala. Our other office is
in Antigua, which is one hour away from Guatemala City and the
airport, and usually the first destination for visitors in
this fascinating country.
We also have an office in Huehuetenango, which concentrates on natural, social and cultural attractions – where most of the communities still have (through the practice) inherited traditions of their forefathers. Soon we
will open an office in Panajachel on lake Atitlan. From
these offices we offer many services that cover all of
Guatemala and extend into Mexico, Belize, Honduras and El
Salvador.
We operate daily shuttles to and from major tourist
destinations in the Western Highlands and offer arranged
service to and from the airport. We offer half-day and full-day tours to indigenous villages, markets, and colonial
churches. We offer several hikes with different levels of difficulty,
some with a duration of several days. We offer packaged tours with durations from one to several days. These tours take you to the most
interesting and beautiful places in our little part of the
world. |

| Dag Patrick,
ondertussen geacclimatiseerd en weer aan de slag.
We hebben het in ieder geval zeer goed gesteld en hebben onze trip niet beklaagd;
Guatemala is een prachtig land qua natuur (jammer van het vele vuil -maar dat zal hun prioriteit niet zijn-);
veel vriendelijke mensen.
Het reisschema zat goed in mekaar en de meeste hotels spraken ons wel aan (alhoewel sommige bedden een betere matras verdienen).
We hebben het goed getroffen met Henry, hopelijk was hij ook tevreden met ons gezelschap: we zullen hem nog wel een aantal foto's doorsturen. Het was voor ons ook een verrassing dat we telkens maar met z'n 2' (3')en waren; nooit geen gecomb. shuttle-vervoer; vanuit Antigua moet je natuurlijk je manager aanspreken (heb je al gezegd). Henry is overigens een zeer goede chauffeur, steeds bezorgd om onze veiligheid (geef hem maar een pluim).
we hebben ons nooit onveilig gevoeld, alhoewel we toch verschillende signalen kregen dat het toch voorzichtigheid geblazen was (?): voorzichtigheid van Henry, andere toeristen, kranten,...
de bezoeken bij de locals zijn ook zeer goed meegevallen/ Julian, Carlos: probeer dit maar iedere keer in te lassen.
als je nog vragen hebt, contacteer ons maar,
groeten,
en tot de volgende (?) keer.

| Dear Patrick,
Now that we're back home, I thought I'd give you a review of all the arrangements you made, including our opinion of the hotels.
The trip was very well organized and we immensely enjoyed ourselves. We tried to call you before we left, but your mobile phone seemed to be closed.
First, the hotels:
San Cristobal - Plaza Magnolia - Very good hotel. The main building, which we stayed in, has been named a national heritage landmark
Palenque - Xibalba - Pleasant hotel, 5 minute walk to a large, well-stocked supermarket, adjacent to an excellent seafood restaurant
Xela - Casa Manen - Unique building for us. Could live in it.
Panachanel - Hotel Dos Mundos - Very nice hotel, nice staff, good complementary breakfast
Chichicastenango - Mayan Inn - Same as Casa Manen
Coban - Casa Duranta - Good hotel, pleasant staff
Antigua - Casa Mia - Good hotel, problematic location (out of town) if you don't have your own private transportation. Language problems with night staff (only one young man who doesn't speak a word of English)
Antigua - Posada La Merced - Good hotel, manager is English, so no language problems
Posada Caribe - Suggest to Julian that he consider installing a system guaranteeing electricity at all times and put in hot showers. Very basic, and very clean. If you can accept the lack of comfort that you get in 4-5 star hotels (which we had no trouble with), Posada Caribe is not to be missed. Wonderful hike/tour of Aquateca with Julian's assistant, David.
Recommendation - Arrive at night. The boat ride in the dark is fantastic, something out of a Hollywood movie, or National Geographic nature film.
Flores - Casazul - Pleasant hotel for the price. Great to sit on the veranda overlooking the lake and drink a cup of coffee or a late-night cocktail. Recommend 2nd or 3rd floor rooms only, due to mosquitoes on the ground floor
On the way to Sayache, we stopped at the underground caverns (I forgot the name) and Semuc Champey, and toured them alone. We believe that the authorities should provide a guide specializing in each place should accompany any group and people should not be allowed to go alone, as there can be danger.
The services you provided were at a very high, and professional, level. The only negative comment we have is regarding Flores. We knew we were going to Tikal in a collective shuttle, but didn't realize the plane from Antigua was an hour late. We apologize for our complaint about this.
All in all, we were very satisfied with all the arrangements and have said so to all our acquaitances.
Sincerely,
Mark

| Hallo Jan,
Dit mailtje om je nog even te bedanken om me aan het mailadres van Patrick Vercoutere te helpen !!
We zijn net (sinds gisteren) terug thuis en het was werkelijk de moeite ! We zijn zeer enthousiast over het land, de reis én de organisatie (we hadden wel in Guatemala wat pech met het regenweer maar daar kan niemand wat aan doen natuurlijk) !
We zijn ook even langs geweest in de ViaVia in Copan Ruinas en moet je veel groeten doen van Geert-van-de-ViaVia !
Men zegge het dus voort : Guatemala is een echte goede vakantiebestemming !!! En Adrenalinatours (www.adrenalinatours.com) (Patricks reisorganistatie) is een aanrader voor de Guatemalareiziger !!
Nogmaals dank en tot een volgende gelegenheid.
Geert Massant en Renild Janssens

| I very much enjoyed the day I spent at the coffee farm El Patrocinio nearby QUETZALTEANGO with Adrenalina Tours. Paulino, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the plethora of beautiful birds, flowers, and trees we saw in the peaceful finca and nature preserve. We started out the day in an observation tower listening to the birds chirping and the water cascading through the scenic valley. We then walked through the woods toward the coffee, cocoa, and macadamia fields where we learned about the operation of the finca. We ended the day in their outdoor dining room and observation deck with a wonderful meal and great conversation with our tour guide and other people at the finca. Between the owl spotting, the picturesque waterfall , the exotic nature hike and the great company, I cannot think of a better way to spend a day. THANK YOU SO MUCH ! |

| Soy antropologo. Hace un par de dias hable con un empleado suyo desde EEUU. Le pedi informes sobre dentistas en Guatemala. Me ha ayudado mucho. Era un hombre muy cortes.
Se que vivia en San Francisco en mi pais y que habla muy bien el ingles. Creo que se llama Javier Corona. Perdone la molestia si estoy equivocado y si el trabaja por otra agencia. Encontre su numero de telefono en el libro Lonely Planet, asi estoy casi seguro que trabaja Javier por Adrenalina Tours.
De todas maneras, si se encuentra en su oficina en Antigua digale que le agradezco mucho por los informes que me dio. Seguramente usare los servicios de Adrenalina si llego a Antigua a finales de octubre. Voy primero a un dentista en la capital.
un cordial saludo,
Dr. John Mamone |

| Hola Patrick,
Qué tal? La verdad es que una vez más, nosotras con MUCHO RETRASO!!!!
Llevamos queriendo escribirte este mail desde que volvimos de Guatemala, tristemente, el pasado 26 de julio.El motivo del mail es simplemente para DARTE LAS GRACIAS, y sí, en mayúsculas!!! Han sido 2 semanas INCREIBLES!!!
Si Guatemala nos ha encantado, Giovani ha sido INCREIBLE......sin palabras.....siempre sonriente, siempre dispuesto a ayudarnos, a aconsejarnos, a tranquilizarnos.....la verdad es que nos lo hemos pasado en grande con él!! Sin Giovani Guate no hubiese sido lo mismo!!! Las mismas palabras para Adrenalina Tours y para ti.....el servicio y la atención han sido inmejorables desde el primer día hasta el último!! y eso que al final os liamos bastante con el tema del cambio de la selva a última hora,...etc. pero con todo y con ello,vosotros no perdisteis las buenas formas y nos ayudasteis y apoyasteis hasta el final!! Haciendo que el viaje finalizara para las siete con un gran recuerdo y una gran sonrisa!
En nombre de todo el grupo Patrik; MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS!!!! Tenemos un recuerdo inmejorable del viaje y no tengáis duda de que cada vez q hablamos de Guatemala, hablamos de vosotros!!! Así que esperamos poder enviar a mucha gente del País Vasco a Guatemala con Adrenalina, y si puede ser, con Giovani!!!
Por cierto, dile a giovani que estamos recopilando las mejores fotos para enviarselas!!! Aunque ya sabes, que una vez q hemos vuelto al trabajo, somos bastante lentas en hacer las cosas.....como este mail!!!
No me alargo más, simplemente GRACIAS!!! Tenemos un gran recuerdo!!!
Saludos
johana y las SIETE!!!

| Adrenalina Tours,
Having used your excellent services twice when in Xela two years ago
I'm planning to return in about 13 months and wondering about a tour
to El Salvador and or Honduras lasting about 10 days or 2 weeks?
Since I plan to study Spanish in Xela my first 3 weeks there it
would be later in April after Easter or in early May.

| I was with the group that had the privilege of having Lucas as the driver of the bus Feb. 2nd. - Feb 10th. I just wanted to send an e-mail to tell you what a wonderful job he did for our group. He is a very careful driver and showed us alot of wonderful places. It was exciting to have a driver that mixed with the group.
Lucas is a very nice person and you are lucky to have him as an employee.

| Dear Pieter, we spent November in Guatemala. We used Adrenalina many times to buy shuttle and airline tickets. It felt like home. All employees were very helpful, especially Javier in Antigua. You drivers are great people. One took us all the way into a little village, San Jorge, where we visited some friends of Sonja's. All together we had a wonderful time in Guatemala. The people arewonderful the scenery outstanding.Thanks again,
Susanne and Don Wolter |

I just wanted to say thank you for all your help in arranging the trip for us. Everything turned out great and we had an excellent time. I also really appreciate the call while we were in Flores regarding the bus to Belize.
I hope you had a great holiday as well!
