Who we are: Turisteando in Santa Clara La Laguna
This site focuses on the Indian Nose (Rostro Maya), above Lake Atitlán: the hike from Panajachel, San Juan or San Pedro La Laguna, and the two-day camping trip with sunset and sunrise. It is organized by people from the area we deal with directly.
What is Turisteando?
Turisteando is an online travel agency that connects adventurous travelers with local operators in Santa Clara La Laguna we deal with directly. We don't run the tours: they do. We choose them, publish their tours and support you before and during your booking.
Why Turisteando?
The big booking portals gather thousands of tours from all over the world. We do the opposite: a few destinations, known up close.
- We deal directly with every operator. Before publishing a tour in Santa Clara La Laguna, we visit the place and talk with the people who run it.
- One site for each destination. This site is dedicated to Santa Clara La Laguna, with information made for that trip.
- You talk to people. If you have a question, you get an answer from someone who knows the destination and the operator.
- One step between you and the operator. There is no chain of agencies reselling the same tour.
How do we choose the operators in Santa Clara La Laguna?
First we research who has the best reputation in Santa Clara La Laguna. Then we make a field visit and talk with the people who run each tour. Only after that do we publish their tours, with the details of what's included.
Is it safe to book with Turisteando?
Yes. Turisteando belongs to Gazela Network, S.A. and has more than 10 years of experience. Payments are processed securely by WeTravel, and we never see or store your card number. Each tour states its conditions before you pay, and you can write to us at info@turisteando.net or call +502 2429 6399.
Whose reviews are on this site?
They come from travelers who booked tours from our local operators with Turisteando, which is why some mention other destinations in our network and not only Santa Clara La Laguna. We show them as written, in their original language and with the criticism included.
How does Turisteando make money?
We agree on a wholesale rate with each operator, and the difference from the published price is our margin. It pays for advertising, technology, new sites and close, direct support.
Who does your booking help?
The guides, drivers and families in and around Santa Clara La Laguna who make a living from tourism. Operators work with us because it is a partnership between people, where both sides win.
