Travel & Explore Guatemala by Air

Traveling through Guatemala by car can be daunting. The roads are poor and there’s heavy traffic most of the day. As we had to cover a lot of ground quickly, we chose to use GT flights for a helicopter ride from Lake Attilan to Guatemala City. On short notice they were able to organize an excellent helicopter for the three of us at a reasonable price. The pilot was highly professional, and the flight was very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Solo traveler charter I chartered a Cessna through GT Flights for a quick hop from Guatemala City to Flores. Ricardo was super responsive to reply and answer any questions I had. I was looped into a group chat for shuttle service from my hotel to the airport and was messaged when they arrived. Great communication. The pilots were smiley and professional and the plane was n great shape. The pilot even walked my bags and I out of the airport in Flores to my ride picking me up. What great service ! I highly recommend GT Flights for any charter needs in Guatemala. I will be happy to use them again next time I’m back in the country .

Best way to get to Lake Atitlan What a beautiful way to get to Lake Atitlan! A quick easy ride versus 3-4hrs of curvy roads. Plus the views of volcanoes and hillsides was spectacular. Excellent and safe captain Ricardo too!

Excellent service. Highly recommend We hired the helicopter from Panajachel to Guatemala City. The customer service was superior at every step of the way. Everything was communicated clearly and we were able to depart a bit earlier than scheduled to stay ahead of stormy weather.

Our pilot was Ricardo. He was great! Very experienced, friendly, and professional. He got us through some areas of rain with no problem or turbulence at all. He told us a lot about Guatemala along the way.

The views were amazing! The ride was safe and fun! It is totally worth it just for fun or for transportation.

10/10. Highly recommended.

Amazing and memorable The whole process from reserving the helicopter ride to the landing was incredibly smooth and professional. I appreciated how communicative they were throughout and it was super easy to find the very nice shuttle that took us to the location where the helicopter was. They even went out of their way to make a sign that I requested for the occasion. Ricardo was a wonderful pilot, and we felt very safe during the duration of our flight. It was so neat to have Ricardo identify cities we were passing along the way. Thank you all so much for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this company with no reservations.

’ve had nothing but excellent experiences flying with GT Flights. On my last trip, I flew from Guatemala City to Lake Atitlán, and once again, everything was seamless. What I appreciate most about GT Flights is their outstanding communication, high safety standards, and impressive efficiency. Every flight feels smooth and worry-free, and I always feel safe and well taken care of. They’ve become my go-to choice for air travel in Guatemala, and I wouldn’t fly with anyone else.

Thank you so much for the experience.

Seamless, Safe, and Professional Helicopter Transfer – Highly Recommend We took a helicopter flight from Juan Gaviota to La Aurora Airport, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. As a pilot myself, I hold a high bar for safety, communication, and professionalism — and this team delivered on all fronts.

They arrived exactly on time, kept us informed with real-time updates via WhatsApp, and handled every detail with care and efficiency. The flight itself was smooth and well-coordinated, and we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time.

If you’re looking for helicopter transport in Guatemala — whether for convenience, logistics, or simply to take in the view — I highly recommend this team. A truly excellent experience.

We had a fantastic experience with GT Flights getting from Santa Cruz, Lake Atitlán to Flores. They arranged everything—private boat taxi, shuttle, and private flight—and every part of the journey was smooth and right on time. Super professional and stress-free. Highly recommend!

Epic experience can’t wait to do it again It was a great way to build an excellent experience between different cultures and build trust and friendship, the pilot was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Guatemala helicopter ride This was an amazing experience! Our pilot, Ricardo Prado, was extremely nice and very experienced. He flew the helicopter smoothly while giving us a nice tour of Guatemala. I highly recommend this service. Thank you!

Simply incredible!! Simply amazing!! Couldn’t fault the experience. Weather was a little cloudy round fuego so they took us on a different route to ensure we still got great views! Could not recommend more!

Great Trip! We had a fantastic experience with GT Flights getting from Santa Cruz, Lake Atitlán to Flores. They arranged everything—private boat taxi, shuttle, and private flight—and every part of the journey was smooth and right on time. Super professional and stress-free. Highly recommend!

The entire GT flights experience was top notch. Great communication from my first contact with them to take off, great rates, and our pilot Michael was awesome. Highly recommend GT flights for any helicopter transport in Guatemala.

THE BEST SERVICE FOR TRANSPORTATION I live in Las Vegas and planned a trip to visit Guatemala for 6 days. I wanted to visit as many places as possible in the short amount of time we would be there. I started looking for alternative transportation as traffic and routes can make it difficult to travel from one point to another in Guatemala. I started researching and came across GT flights. From the beginning, Ricardo communicated promptly and provided many options and information regarding local areas. I spent many days asking many questions before finalizing my travel plans. I ultimately booked transportation from Guatemala City to Atitlan and then from Atitlan to Flores so that we could visit the ruins in Tikal and lastly from Flores back to Guatemala City. These visits would not have been possible had it not been for GT flights, as travel by car would’ve taken too long. Ricardo stayed in touch with me every single day and provided information, itineraries and kept me up-to-date. I cannot thank them enough for giving us an experience of a lifetime.

10/10 would recommend They are the absolute best. I needed a helicopter within 12 hours and they made it happen. Smooth experience and experienced pilots. I would recommend them to anyone.

An absolute pleasure to deal with Ricardo at GT was professional and extremely responsive. He planned a multi day trip for us with many tours,and forms of transport. Every guide and driver was professional and amazing. They even set up a whatsapp chat group to help with anything, all hours of the day. I liked that payment was upfront by card so I didnt have to deal with cash all the time. I highly recommend this company for all your needs from the City to Antigua to Lake Atitlan and everything in between. From copters to cars to tours, this company acts as a one stop shop. Super convenient, super reliable.
