  For those traveling to Antigua and looking to go off the beaten path, I highly recommend booking a bike trip with MTB Guatemala. Brandon and his team are very... read more skilled riders that will help you learn quickly how to ride a mountain bike. My husband and I are both road cyclists and this was an incredibly adventure and we loved each second of our tour. We selected the Tierras de Lujo in order to see the surrounding areas of Antigua, from coffee plantations to corn, to flowers.. and see a bit of the surrounding villages. We got to witness some Mayan rituals in one of the churches and also eat lunch in a very local restaurant. Brandon and his team very talented and kind athletes and truly want to help the locals and the tourist connect through their similar passion of biking the trails of Guatemala. Highly recommend booking and they will formulate your ride according to your fitness and skill levels.

  This was one of the best trips I've taken in my entire life.

All the meals were very quality. Brendan's psat experience as a mechanic assures that if anything goes wrong he will be there to help fix it. He also knows the trails like the back of his hand. I will definetley be back for MTB Guatemala.

  I am an avid Road cyclist and Intermediate MTB rider with family ties in Guatemala. I found these guys through a country of Guatemala instagram page and their pictures stood... read more out above of the others. So after salivating for over 6 months from their constant breathtaking posts, my sister and I bought the 2 day Tour of Tecpan-Pana & Highlands.

The Scenery:
The pictures do not compare to experiencing the mumbling beauty of Guatemala in person. Everything is so green!!! And the routes are the actual trails of the ancient Mayan cultures that are still used by the locals, who are actually very humble and welcoming as you pass by. The corn fields were a huge eye opener for me. I am sure those who live in urban environments will take away something from seeing that the way of life here.

The Tour Guides:
Our tour guides Alex, and Nefta were beasts on the bike! And they can easily become your best friends. They are Super strong going up hill and they never get off there bikes during the most technical drops. Alex, our main guide gave us, from what I can only describe as very hip/academic lectures of every point interest , which there a lot!! e.g. Iximche. Which is why I dubbed him ”el profesor.”

Eric our driver who drove us from Antigua to the starting point in his very RAD converted school van from Korea, is the sweetest guy and again is someone who can be your best friend. Is always there at check points to make sure everyone feed and safe and will be there to the rescue if need be.

The Ride:
I came some what advanced. I like to climb steep hills and have been able to ride 100+ miles with 6000ft of climbing in one day on a road bike. And I was not let down by the difficulty. This was a rewarding trek which is definitely not for beginners, but seriously something to aspire to.

Nothing beats climbing through cool fresh air. As It helps your ascent. I didn’t even feel much need for water. The hills never felt impossible but very seldom they got to a very steep grade maybe “17,” so I may have walked it up a few times.. but still, it only made me want to improve.

The downhill is challenging, there were some falls but nothing my sister and I couldn’t handle. Luckily there are forks in the road where Alex and Nefta gave us the option to try an intermediate level route. I only did the advanced routes, which were too advanced for me at times, as I am not an avid mtb climber. But having Alex and Nefta there teaching and showing me how it’s done makes me feel confident I can one day do it.

Conclusion:

It all ends at Lake Atitlan, the most photogenic lake on the planet. The photos were spectacular. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the memories. And the guides really are great photographers. Your Instagram will be set!

As of this writing I am currently in Guatemala trying to book a last minute ride with them before I leave. For me, what these guys offer is priceless, I feel more connected to my parent’s country then I ever have before.

I strongly recommend MTB Guatemala! If you are looking to tour a beautiful country without being your standard tourist, then this is for you!

  I brought my two children (ages 11 and 13) and my father on a seven day custom tour with MTB Guatemala. We did several of the standard rides, but also... read more did some new ones that fit the interests of my kids. The challenge of the tour we did was the vast ranges of skill sets in our group, from my 13 year old MTB racer to my 70+ year old father, and everything in between. Brendan and team managed to plan a trip that was challenging for everyone but also allowed for my dad to skip more challenging sections. They also modified the rides and guides to support me and my younger son. The beauty of the landscape and people is impressive and MTB Guatemala does a fantastic job ensuring an amazing cycling and cultural experience. The guides (we had Alex and Neftali) are top notch at riding, safety, and knowledge of the land and culture. The trails are great and Brendan has mapped the trail systems of Guatemala at an intricate and impressive level. His enthusiasm for the country is contagious. Our driver, Erick, was safe and prompt. The whole group was fantastic with all of us and provided for a truly unique, active, and cultural experience.

  Brendan was super accommodating and patient with our group who were of varied interests and skill. He was constantly altering the itinerary to meet our needs. The guides,... read more Neftali and Alex were also amazing, as was our driver. I would highly recommend any trip with them. I would also recommend being as specific as possible as to your groups skill and desires, and to cover less distance in order to actually see more. Guatemala has a ton of elevation change!

  So after procrastinating in the writing of a review, it is quite apropos that I find myself compelled to to do so now, on New Years eve when many look... read more back on their lives and take stock of what they have done.... or not done with their lives and try and make sense of it all. In doing so I would have to say that my 3 day trip mountain biking in Guatemala was the highlight of my year and though I don't do new years (un) resolutions, I have resolved in general to do at least one biking trip a year from now on.

I just turned 49, live in Atlanta,Ga and have done several local enduro races,50-60 miles over the years, mostly in the Chattahoochee forest in North Georgia. I would consider myself an advanced intermediate to advanced rider, though I did discover that I have little to no ability on technical downhills. It's not something that bothers me, I prefer going uphill anyway and as I told Brendan, Old dog new tricks....not happening here. I would advise anyone who wants to do a trip here to know their level as it definitely is not a jaunt in the park. It's not that Brendan and his staff wont accommodate you, but most of us don't decide to run a marathon after only running a 5K.
My pre trip training comprised of trying to get 3-4 hour uphill rides in Dahlonega, up Coopers Gap and Winding Stairs, twice a week. I think given our first day ride from Tecpan to Panajachel, which was the hardest day, this is the minimum amount of trianing required. The hills are steep and hard and the terrain is definitely not like the well worn trails in the US and the altitude is up there at over 10,000 feet. This is genuine off road cycling.

Brendan,the owner, is a cycling vagabond, a peripatetic pedaling pioneer and through his years of experience has mapped many remote trails and routes. We cycled on ancient Mayan trails, through remote farmland and discovered the real meaning of fields of gold. Maize. It is everywhere. It is a life source and probably the thing that most defines the people that grow it, eat it and respect it. Pabulum, but in a good way. As we drove from Panajachel up the hill past San Andreas to our second day cycling, this is the image that I remember most .As we reached the plateau just how stunningly beautiful the fields of golden corn were. Perfect, perfect weather in the mid 70s coupled with the most perfect panaromic views of the many volcanoes situated around Lake Atitlan.

While the biking was difficult, the rewards were spectacular landscapes ,a privilege to experience. Alex, whom is from Tecpan, took us on a guided tour of the ancient Mayan ruins. He learned us, as we say back home, about his people and ancestors, their customs and beliefs. Eric our driver, a local with in depth knowledge of the area as only a local can have, maneuvered us safely around the Altiplano never missing a pick up point even in the remotest of places.

So yeah the biking was great,spectacular, hard,the pain that makes one a mountain biker and a masochist at the same time I guess. The people were kind and welcoming. Talk had turned after time to the stereotypes of Guatemala that are out there, so I feel compelled to say that at no point during the trip did I feel unsafe, actually quite the opposite. I walked around Antigua and Panajachel at night on my own and felt completely secure. Most of us who come from big cities probably couldn't say the same about our downtown areas.

The only complaint I do have about the trip is that Brendan doesn't know the difference between cake and pie. After arriving in Panajachel and having some dinner, Brendan said there was a lady who made the most amazing pie and hoped she was selling her deliciousness's that night. Fortunately for us she was. So we sat on plastic chairs at a plastic table, on an anonymous street corner eating the most exquisite homemade CAKE. I asked for a coffee and got a plastic cup of simple, but good coffee and somehow I felt like a King.

And finally, you see Brendan once we start talking the writing is the same, in the words of William Wallace who said "They can try and take our BIKES but we'll take their lives" ,or the immortal words of your cousin Christy Moore, RIDE ON!!

  If you wanna see Guatemala out of tourist route..this is the best way!!
Look for Alex and Neftjin...the best guides in the world!!
Amazing tour!! They made everything simple,... read more funny, easy..awesome!!

  We did two days of riding, one to the kite festival (FESTIVAL DE BARRILETES GIGANTES) during day of the dead, and a second day of mountain biking (dos aquacates tour).... read more Both days were amazing, full of culture and amazing views of the area.
The ride to the kite festival was fairly mellow, I brought my 8 year old, who rode most of it. She jumped in the van for the more technical parts, which was a nice option to have. The festival was hard to describe, as it was just so unique and beautiful. It was a special day I will forever remember. I highly recommend this ride as it avoids traffic and is a fun way to get to the event on backroads and trails.
The 2nd day of mtn biking was a more advanced day of riding, but nothing overly technical. The views were stunning, and the guides knowledge of the area is vast, so our route could easily be adjusted based on skill, etc. There was some climbing, in addition to the shuttle, which was nice for the exercise. Lunch was included, and was really tasty, as well as some snacks along the way (fresh banana bread!). I would recommend these trips if you are a mtn biker and want to experience the culture and beauty of Guatemala away from the crowds.

  Brendan did a great job on our tour. I really enjoyed riding through the varied microclimates and terrain all in one ride. Would definitely go again!

Be prepared for some challenging single track though. These trails are not groomed. Also we were at 9000ft so the altitude will get to you.

  During my 3 month stay in Guatemala ive been after some mountainbike tours, Ive read about its growing popularity and i was exicted to get down there and on some... read more trails, since i was just getting into biking itself. Sadly ive ran into a slow spell and no tours were available with the few outfitters i had in mind. Until i discovered MTB guatemala.
I found MTB through instragram and since then ive been following all these awesome tours going on with MTB. They would venture all across Guatemalas landscapes and travel by shuttles and bike to tour trails for days in a row. I was thinking to myself ( i have got to do that ). The photos shown along the tours were amazing, showing epic locations and surreal sunrises and locations i dont see to often on Guatamalas social media. I knew these views youd only see off the beaten path. This path with MTB forms long trips on bikes into Guatemalas Backcountry. MTB seemed to be the most out there off the beaten path and the trips seemed to be constantly going. I knew i wanted to go on one of MTBs trips. Im glad i did.
i contacted MTB and there was a whole schedual of tours to kick off the new year. I contacted MTB directly about the tours where i was introduced to Brendan. Hes the manager and tour guide for MTB. After some discussion i was set for one of the first Tours of the year called Cumbre El Mar "The Summit to the Sea"

This tour was the first of its type and the group i was included with was the first group to ever go on such a tour. It would start in the higher lands in Guatemala at Tecpan and ride 54 miles to the end at El Paradon surftown. The tour would provide all bikes with gear, and meals. The group met early in the morning in Antiguas central park where we all greeted and loaded up. We drove to a diner for a good size breakfast and chit chat to know the group better. It was a good size group. We had 2 shuttle vans that rode behind with supplies and any assistance if needed. The tour also included assistant guides to cater to the group and keep everyone safe.

The tour would take you through alot of Guatemalas back country roads and trails from the steep high forest in the clouds, all the way to the lowlands full of tall farm grass. Youll never stop wondering where you becuase the route Brendan designed goes through so much so fast youll feel your in a whole new world every half hour. Crossing bridges, visiting small villages, coffee plants, and go through so many changes in the trails. Youll ride on gravel, dirt, single track, crop fields, pavement, Water, Mud, and finally sand near the beach. This ride was a Jouney and at the end of the day your relaxing on the beach. The ride itself was a ride any skilled or novice rider could enjoy, itle keep you guessing whats next. If you want to see a vast part of Guatamala in 1 day an see it in a unique perspective book a tour, get on the bike and go on this ride. Contact MTB and see what Brendan has to offer.

Brendon pioneers the front for mountainbiking and hes always looking and navigating Guatemalas back country for new trails and tours keeping the game alive and full of adventure. If hes not on a tour, hes out navigating the next route. Hes very proffesional and his crew works very hard to maintain the standards and quality for the equipment. After meeting him and riding with MTB crew ive already planned to return and ride the new routes that he comes up with.

I 100% recommend contacting MTB Guatemala, talk to Brendan. He will have exactly what your looking for. If your planning to bomb down a volcano, he has it and its called the Super Enduro. Ive done it and it was the best decision ive ever made, ill place a review for that seperatly. If your coming to Guatemala and want to try something unique or want the best trails, contact him. You will not be let down.
