If your looking for recommendations on where to travel here's a few of my favorite
things to do in Guatemala. First
Lake Atitlan is a beauitul lake framed by two active volcanoes and only 45 minutes out of Guatemala City you can visit the colonial city of
Antigua known for its architecture and
spanish language schools.
If you want to really pack in your trip and you find Mayan ruins interesting be sure to visit
Tikal which is a flight into the town of flores and then a bus or cab ride to the ruins. To appreciate Tikal spend the night at one of the
Tikal hotels and watch a sunset from the ruins.
