About Us

Duende Tours is a highly experienced local multi-sport adventure travel provider of ecologically and culturally-oriented tours in the rainforest of the Mayan World in Mexico, Belize and Guatemala. As an international team of Europeans, Americans, and Latin Americans, we have been able to integrate western travel needs and quality standards into a local culture with different living standards and understandings.

What differentiates us from other tour organizations is our philosophy about adventure travel. We prefer to think of our tours as personal journeys of reflection, fun, and learning. Our tours are directed towards individuals that are looking to push their physical, educational, and cultural limits just a little further whilst off the beaten path. In other words, our tours are made for active travelers, interested not only in nature, but in the unique and stimulating learning experience of sound eco-friendly and culturally-sensitive methods of travel.

Our Tours

At Duende Tours Adventure Travel you can find many great offers for your trip to one of the most breathtaking destinations in Central America – Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Honduras. These are among the best places to visit if you are interested in Mayan ruins and civilization, birding, diving and snorkeling, swimming with whale sharks and exploring the nature wonders.

This region of the world is especially picturesque, as it features all types of different landscapes – oceans, lagoons, lakes, rivers, mangroves, swamps, white secluded beaches, arid deserts, rain forests, jungles, snow topped mountains and active volcanoes. The variety of species of flora and fauna inhabiting these lands is huge, especially if you add to the count the number of migrating animals that come to Central America every year to nest, find food and take care of their young.

At Duende Tours we have carefully considered every destination we have to offer you and have made sure that we will be perfectly able to satisfy any need you may have, as well as giving you a memorable vacation experience. We focus on eco-friendly ways to travel and tour, as our main goal is to promote ecological awareness and to show the beauty of nature.

Our tours are split into categories based on their duration – from one day trips to longer five day tours, as well as custom tailored tours for our clients who would like to reach a bit further and explore as much of Central America and its wonders as they possibly can in one tour.

Day Tours

We have over 30 one day tours for the traveler who is interested in exploring Mexico, Guatemala and Belize. Some of the tours are suitable for people who are interested in Mayan ruins, history and archeology, while other tours are specially tailored for people who would like to spend their time observing nature or performing different underwater activities such as scuba diving, cave diving or snorkeling.

If you would like to learn more about the Mayan civilization and would like to visit some of the most popular Mayan ruins, we recommend that you check out our tours to Tikal, Chichen Itza, Palenque and many more. All these tours are of a maximum duration of four hours, which means that you can wake up in the morning, enjoy a cup of coffee or another beverage of your choice while watching the sunrise, then take the trip and be back at your hotel before sunset.

Some of our top one day trips for nature lovers include a visit to the island of Cozumel where you can see many saltwater crocodiles in their natural environment as well as flamingos; you can also see some species of birds native to Cozumel.

Multi-Day Tours

If you have more spare time and would like to take one of our multi-day tours, you will be able to experience a lot more of the local atmosphere as well as see more Mayan ruins, national parks and wildlife reserves.

Our multi-day tours take between two and nine days, and you can join a guided tour in birding and exploring the biosphere reserve of Sian Ka'an, learn Spanish in Guatemala and experience the traveling classroom.

Exploring the Mayan ruins is something most tourists coming to Central America are interested in, so we can offer you several excellent options for guided tours to Tikal, Chichen Itza, Calakmul, El Peru and any other destination you may be interested in.

Customized Tours

To be able to provide you with the best vacation experience possible, we can organize activities that match your needs best, and many people do so. Activities such as rafting in the rain forests, hiking or biking tours and many others have been explored this way. Even if it is not part of our current tour menu, if it fits adventure travel in the region we'll arrange everything you need to get an unforgettable experience. All you have to do is contact us, let us know what you are interested in and let us take care of the rest!
