Welcome to Your Grand Guatemalan Tour!
September 20-28, 2024
As organizers of this meaningful 9-day tour, we would like to extend a warm welcome to you in Guatemala. Father Miguel Alvizures will lead this grand tour of Guatemala, introducing you to his homeland. We are confident that this experience will be unforgettable, purposeful, and perhaps even life-changing.
At the heart of this tour is The Little Mountain School. During your stay, you will visit the school, learn about its mission, and connect with the surrounding community of Joya Honda. Above all, you will have the opportunity to get to know the wonderful children of the school that represents the heart of our work.
In addition to exploring the school and understanding the importance of our mission, you will have the opportunity to discover the cultural and touristic richness that Guatemala offers. From the charming cobbled streets of Antigua Guatemala, preserving its colonial essence, to the ancient ruins of Tikal, this grand tour will encompass a range of experiences highlighting the natural beauty and cultural heritage that Guatemala has to offer.
Moreover, you will gain insights into the fascinating process of our coffee production. You will have the opportunity to witness firsthand the journey from bean to cup, exploring the intricacies of our coffee-growing tradition.
We are committed to making this trip an unforgettable experience for all participants, and we hope that every moment in Guatemala is enriching and meaningful.
Welcome to Guatemala, where the magic of our culture and the warmth of our people await you!
