We got a tuk-tuk from Lanquin, which was great and took about 15/20 minutes. You have to pay in cash on entry and they would not give us change! So make sure to take the right amount. We did the Mira… Full review by Ruby W

Amazing place. Just magical and prestine. Truly underrated place of the world. One of Guatemala’s best natural wonders Full review by Camper797267

Absolutely amazing! 100% worth the trek to the top, I even did it in my flip flops through wet rocks! The water isn't as warm as I thought it'd be but nonetheless it's still worth the dip! Full review by sc00bs222
Guatemala in September So me and boyfriend are thinking about Guatemala in September however we are afraid that we cannot take buses of visit Semuc Champey due to bad road conditions- is this the case? Does it rain so much that roads become super bad? Does any one has had experience graveling in Guatemala by bus in September or during rainy season? Thanks!!

We did it in Apr & there were several days of rain during our time in Guatemala. The day before our trip to Semuc, the heavens opened in Lanquin & we thought the pools would be brown, even if we even could get to them. No problem...the trucks & buses that take you appear to me to be ready for this weather, they can't afford to stop all operations for the whole rainy season. I think you'll be ok. have a look at Semuc reviews & search for some for September time. Good luck, it's worth it
I’m trying to decide what to do with my last 3 days in Guatemala. I’ve been studying Spanish at a language school in Antigua and I want to take a trip my last few days. I’m trying to decide between going to Xela, Rio Dulce, or Semuc Champey. I would like to leave Saturday morning (the 29th of June) and spend the night in Guatemala City on Monday (the 1st of July), my flight is the 2nd in the afternoon, so I need to spend the night in the city. In Xela, I’m really interested in visiting Fuentes Georgina. I think it could be relaxing after studying for so long. I would think Semuc Champey could be elaxing while also exciting. I’m just worried about the weather. It hasn’t been raining much in Antigua, so it makes me feel like it will be okay. In regards to Rio Dulce, I think the nature looks gorgeous. Can someone point me in the right direction? I can’t make up my mind

Hello there... The main question is where will you be staying on 28th? If you’re going to stay in the center of Guatemala or up north then I would recommend you to go to Xela or Semuc Champay, either one of them is a great option. But... if you’re still in Guatemala City/Antigua area then I would’ve suggest you to go on a two days hike to Arcatenango Vulcano instead of waisting your time on transportation... you must consider that as well. I hope it will help you to make up your mind and wish you a great trip.
I’m planning a Guatelama trip in August for 17 days. I would love to make it to Semuc Champey and Rio Dulce. With the rains, how will the pools be? It would be a shame to make the trip and have muddy water you can’t really swim in. Should I just allocate time elsewhere ? I also have a ten year old with me. Thanks for the help!
