Guatemala City is the center of commercial and cultural activities; a blend of the ancient, the colonial and the modern.  The former capital city is La Antigua, the site of some of the finest examples of colonial art and architecture in the Americas. Antigua is an excellent city for shoppers, with its fine buys in silver, jade and contemporary jewelry.

One of Guatemala’s most popular visitor destinations, Chichicastenango, offers one of the world’s great experiences. “Chichi” allows a glimpse of centuries-old Maya customs within the setting of a colorful, bustling marketplace!

Lake Atitlan is Guatemala’s most majestic natural wonder. It has been described by many as the most beautiful lake in the world. Framed by three massive volcanoes and towering mountains, its shores are lined with colorful Indian villages and witness to a native life unchanged for centuries.

The Maya ruins and the natural beauty of Tikal National Park combine into what is the highlight of any trip to Guatemala. Tikal constitutes one of the main archaeological sites in all of the Americas. The rich tropical flora and fauna have to be seen to be believed. The birdlife alone makes the trip worthwhile!
