San Pedro La Laguna Authentic Tour Company | Guatemala Sur Mesure

San Pedro La Laguna Authentic Tour Company | Guatemala Sur Mesure. Henry Nicolas Matzar Sumoza and his brother Omar Soumoza (Poncho) operate what I would call the only Authentic Tour Company based in San Pedro La Laguna.

This is a family owned business involving other members of the family. Henry and Poncho’s mother Teresa will on occasion provide meals for guests in her home after you have enjoyed a day of hiking The Mayan Nose or San Pedro Volcano with Henry or Poncho.

Henry and Poncho are boat captains, the family owns three boats that for the last almost 20 years have navigated Lake Atitlan taking quests on Boat Tours of Lake Atitlan. I know lots of tour companies offer boat tours.

Henry and Poncho have a connection to the Mayan culture few tour companies offer. This connection is what makes a day with Henry or Poncho on Lake Atitlan not only a pleasant day on the Lake, you will learn more about the Mayan Culture of Lake Atitlan then offered by any other tour company.

Now after years of working for other Tour Companies the Soumoza family have there own Tour Company. For some in this world we live in would say they are your competitors now? Why would you help them? The selfish world we live in of how people think today.

Over the years we have been treated like family by all in the Soumoza household. Many Family meals together, always talking about ideas.
