I had a really great time at the finca! The other volunteers and the people that work there are all really nice and fun to work with. Working with the horses was amazing, it never felt like work because it was so much fun to do. The work hours are good and on our free days we could plan fun trips to Flores and Tikal. It's a really beautiful and fun place and i definitely recommend volunteering here!

The guest house is an experience to remember for the rest of your life. Everything is just wonderful from the amazing views of the beautiful land to the magnificent culture that surrounds the area within. It's a very welcoming experience to be a volunteer at the Finca, they truly treat you like family even if you don't speak any Spanish 😂. The general maintenance work was hard to get around in the first days which is expected so you can figure out where everything is that you need to get the job done. You can learn a lot from the experiences here and i highly recommend it.

Volunteering at the guest house was truly life-changing for me. It was my first volunteer experience and I could not wish for better! I met lots of beautiful people, I've learn deeply about Guatemalan culture.. I'll miss so much that place! I truly recommend to volunteer once here, you won't regret it :)

It's a very relaxing volunteering experience, there's not that many working hours, you only work when they need you to. You have full access to the restaurant kitchen and there's always a lot a fresh things to eat! We really enjoyed working with Jorge and the horses! However, it's not really supervized and we had a bad experience with some of the volunteers who establish their « own rules » wanted to take control of the group, which we didn't enjoy that much. The volunteers corner was also very dirty, we literaly had to shower in vomit… Overall a good experience but a lack of structure :)

My time at the finca was unprecedented, it is the dream come true for every horse lover as you get to work with horses every! They are always a lot of volunteers and i found incredible friends for life:) Sth that did bother me is that you are expected to wash the dishes in the kitchen quite often (which does not count as working hours), on top of the already really demanding work with the wild horses:/ Be aware of the fact that you need a lot of experience in working with horses/ riding horses and an adequate level of Spanish

We absolutely enjoyed our stay in the guest house! Working with the horses was so amazing even though we did not have much experience with horses. Sometimes it was challenging because a few of the horses are more or less wild, but with the support of our fellow volunteers we learned really much! would really recommend.

I had an amazing time at the Finca. Everyone that works there is so kind, and the work is very fun and tasks/hours are fair. Great place to improve your Spanish as well!

I stayed here for two weeks, and it was the perfect escape from city life. My tasks included caring for the horses and collecting eggs from the chickens, which felt grounding and rewarding. The finca's community was incredibly welcoming, though it took about a week to truly connect. Be ready for the challenges of rural living—plenty of bugs, ticks, and the humidity caused some of my clothes to grow moldy. Despite these quirks, I absolutely loved the experience and would do it again!

Had an AMAZING TIME!! I highly recommend was great for learning Spanish- would say if you have little to no horse riding experience then wouldn't recommend as the horses are wild so you do need a pretty good amount of riding experience. It is a beautiful place I would be back in a heart beat as the people were amazing , helped with my Spanish as only 2 staff spoke some English but really made my time at the guest house - it's also located in POPTUN (not Guatemala City) so make sure you arrive in the morning not late at night as difficult to get taxi if late at night
