Are you one of those individuals who are interested in traveling throughout Central America? Why not travel in Guatemala and be able to experience a different vacation together with your friends or family members? Let me share a few options that you may look into when it comes to traveling in Guatemala. In this article is a selection of the top 3 tours available in Guatemala based in my personal experience. They are great for families, groups of friends and adventurous honeymooners. Here they are, Enjoy!
The Chichicastenango Tour:
In this tour you will be taken to Chichicastenango (Quiche, Guatemala) in a private shuttle. Once you are there, you will have the opportunity to see what daily life is for its native people. But most importantly you will have the chance to visit Central America's largest artisans market. Why is it so great? Well, In it you will find all kinds of fresh vegetables, fruits, farm animals, tons of flowers and all kinds of handcrafts made of colorful fabrics, wood, ceramics and even jade at a great price.
As soon as you step foot in it you will notice that the decoration is very unique.
Pacaya Volcano Tour:
Pacaya Volcano is just a short drive away from Antigua Guatemala but you can get there from Guatemala City too. In this tour you can go up almost to the crater and stand a meter away from the constant lava flows. These constant flows are what keep this volcano from having a big eruption, making it a safe and exciting day trip.
The only way you can go up is with a guide. He will lead you along the safest and best paths. If you haven't booked with any company (which would be preferred) you might get lucky and find one once you get there.
El Mirador Tour:
There is a newly discovered Mayan city in the northern area of Peten's cloud forest, Guatemala, with the largest Mayan pyramids and temple complexes ever seen. It is located several kilometers north from Tikal.
This awesome tour is normally a six days camp (but it could be less). The camp tour consists of a series of hikes where you will discover the highest and biggest Mayan temples you could ever imagine. The tour includes meals and a great bilingual guide that will tell you all you need to know about this great place and its wildlife.
