Kudos for writing another
descriptive, informative and useful guide, this time for Guatemala! I used
The Adventurer's Guide
to Guatemala as my primary resource. I followed your recommendations on day
trips in Antigua and was not disappointed. The cultural museum and the
macadamia nut farm were especially interesting! The information you provided
on lake Atitlan was also helpful. What a beautiful place!
I heartily recommend your guide to
anyone traveling to Guatemala. Your stories and thoughtful photos really
inspire one to get out an explore. Keep up the great work!
Victor Martel Guatemala has a
colorful culture and a rich blend of peoples which reflect its
history and struggle to become the country it is today.
Destinations
In this Guide we
take you from the ancient Maya strongholds of Huehuetenango and
Xela to one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the world,
Panajachel on the ancient volcanic Lake Atitlan. We show you
colorful native markets, the old Colonial capital city of Antigua
and give you a sneak peek into the Caribbean side of Guatemala like
you have never seen before.
Maya ruins, island cities, exploding
volcanoes and the famous brilliantly unique Chicken Buses – it’s all
here in this Guide to Guatemala.
Hundreds of
photos are included so you can have a personal glimpse into this
amazing country!
Save money, save hassle. Take
advantage of what we know!
