Itinerary
The journey to Semuc Champey is only 30 minutes long, but every moment feels like part of the adventure. Sit back, take in the lush landscapes, and let the beauty of Guatemala guide you toward one of its most magical hidden gems.
This place is truly a slice of paradise on earth, and you won’t believe it exists until you see it with your own eyes. Declared a natural monument in 2005, Semuc Champey is a 300-meter-long limestone bridge that forms a series of stunning turquoise pools. The name “Semuc Champey,” given by the local Q’eqchi’ Mayan people, means “Where the river hides,” as the Cahabón River flows beneath these natural pools. Take a dip in the refreshing waters and soak up the lush, subtropical surroundings. From start to finish, this magical spot will leave you in awe!
We will explore the K'amba Caves which are located not far from the Semuc Champey Natural Park. Be sure to bring water shoes so you don't fall on the slippery rocks. The tour through the caves is done in complete darkness and illuminated with a candle for each participant. This is an adventure tour, no doubt about it.
As we make our way back, take the opportunity to relax and soak in the peaceful atmosphere after a day full of adventure. We’ll return to the Guayaha Hotel, our starting point.
