ROAM was fantastic! Their communication was superb also- that’s critical while you’re in another country! They listened to our wants and desires for what we wanted our trip to look like, and exceeded our expectations!

When to Go

The dry season (November to April) is the prime time, with clear skies, mild temperatures (65°F-80°F / 18°C-27°C), and ideal conditions for hiking volcanoes, exploring ruins, and enjoying outdoor luxury.

The wet season (May to October) brings rain, peaking in June and September, but lush scenery and fewer crowds—travel insurance is wise due to potential storms. Shoulder months (April and November) offer a balance of good weather and quieter high-end retreats.

Guatemala Highlights
