Hobbitenango and Altamira Half Day Tour

About this experience

Escape to two of the most unique and breathtaking locations near Antigua Guatemala with our Hobbitenango & Altamira Tour. This half-day adventure is perfect for families, couples, and anyone looking to experience something different while visiting Antigua.

Our first stop is Hobbitenango, a magical place inspired by the movie The Hobbit, nestled in the mountains. Famous for its giant swing and the iconic "Hand of the King" where you can take incredible photos with stunning nature as your backdrop. You'll also have the chance to explore the charming Hobbit-inspired huts.

Next, we’ll head to Altamira, where you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the three towering volcanoes that surround Antigua. Altamira offers the best vantage point to capture amazing photos and, for the more adventurous, there's an optional canopy bike ride.
