Pachamama Tours

Pachamama Tours and Hostel Esperanza are more than just a tour agency and a place to stay—we are building a self-sustaining future to reopen our nonprofit next year. To make this vision a reality, we need passionate volunteers to join us!

As a volunteer, you’ll help with the daily operations of our hostel and tour agency while contributing to a meaningful cause. Your time and effort will directly support our mission, creating a lasting impact on both our community and yourself.

Join us in this journey—where adventure, hospitality, and purpose come together to make a difference!

At Pachamama Tours and Hostel Esperanza, we are more than a team—we are a family that grows every day, working towards a self-sustaining future to reopen our nonprofit. Volunteers have always been at the heart of our journey, and each one has left a lasting impact with their dedication and support. We understand that arriving in a new country can feel overwhelming, but here, you’ll find guidance, support, and a welcoming community from day one. Before your arrival, we coordinate a video call to introduce ourselves, go over our guidelines, and explain your tasks and schedule. Once your dates are set, we provide three important documents to review and sign: a confidentiality agreement, child protection policy, and our terms and conditions.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience pet sitting for Jonathan! From start to finish, everything went smoothly, and I truly felt at home. The pets were all so lovely and well-behaved, and I quickly bonded with them. I loved that jonathan trusted me with his pets and gave me a lot of independence while still providing guidance when needed. The whole experience gave me the perfect balance of responsibility and relaxation. I highly recommend this opportunity to anyone who loves animals and is looking for a rewarding Worldpackers experience.

I LOVED it... I felt so welcomed and at home, I didn't want to leave! Jonathan and everyone who works there are amazing, and we had loads of fun. I helped him with the design of his website which is what he needed at the time and it was loads of fun to do and also take pictures up the volcano for the website.

Amazing experience, I can't recommend it enough!

Volunteered for reception with Pachamama and ended up staying 6 weeks

The whole team – Jonathan, Samara, Ana, and Willy – were incredibly welcoming and made me feel part of the group right away.

Really enjoyed my time helping travelers and working with everyone.

It was an incredible experience! Unfortunately I spent only 2 weeks at Pachamama Tours. The food was very good and the room simple but comfortable! I was able to get to know a bit more about Guatemala and the work is just as described! Highly recommend!

Yo tuve una experiencia muy bonita aquí y me conecté especialmente con el staff, lo que me hizo sentir como que hacía parte de una familia guatemalteca.
Las actividades son tranquilas y no salen del que fue acordado. Jonathan es muy flexible y el equipo deja la rutina muy divertida y con buen ambiente.
Seguramente recomiendo la experiencia y advierto de que será difícil decir adiós a esa familia!
