Central America - particularly Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador and southern Mexico - has been hit by torrential rain due to a tropical depression which swept in from the Pacific. This has resulted in landslides, floods, and some roads are impassable. We currently have the following tours in the area:

To date no Kumuka tours have been affected. We will continue to monitor the situation closely however, all scheduled departures are currently anticipated to go ahead as normal.
