Lake Atitlan Guatemala Travel Guide | 90+ Countries with 3 Kids
Lake Atitlan is one of the most popular places to visit in Guatemala, and for good reason. Imagine a huge lake surrounded by volcanoes and dotted with traditional villages and small towns, each with their own personality.
Being that Lake Atitlan is easily accessible from the travel hub of Antigua, many travelers add a stay at the lake to their Guatemala trip.
You'll mingle with locals, backpackers, yogis and church groups on mission trips. You can choose to spend your time relaxing, hiking, volunteering, getting off the grid, hanging out with other foreigners, drinking a beer on the lake, cleansing your body and soul, or all of the above!
There are lots of things to do in Lake Atitlan, plus it’s perfect environment to get away from it all and simply relax. It's no surprise that people often end up staying around Lake Atitlan for much longer than expected.
Enjoy the video and make sure to let us know where you're watching from!

The absolute 5 top places of Guatemala
I would like to share with you the top 5 places in Guatemala to visit if you only have 2 weeks. I have spent so far 6 months in Guatemala, exploring it to the fullest.
After your arrival in the Capital City of Guatemala take a bus straight to Antigua (the normal chicken buses run till about 6pm. but you might not want to wait till the last one:).
Antigua is a brilliant vibrant city. It might be a bit touristy and overprices, yes… But! It is still worth it. I encourage you to also travel off season, like me. That has many more advantages than disadvantages.
If you are into hiking, I would recommend climbing up the Acatenango volcano, with the view over Fuego. Fuego is one of the 3 active volcanoes in Guatemala (the others being Santiaguito (2,550 meters - 8,366 ft) close to Xela, and Pacaya (2,552 metres - 8,373 ft) close to Antigua). It has a big, devastating eruption (very sad for all of us, since many people lost their lives:( )on the 3rd of June 2018. Since then the eruption pattern changed. The footage of Fuego in the video was taken by me, just 2 weeks before the big eruption. And I know that it doesn’t look like this any more. It is still a great hike, but I just want you to manage your expectations accordingly.
How exactly to organize an Acatenango tour:
And all the Fuego eruptions you can see in the following one:
And to go to Pacaya in the early morning. And since you have to go there with a guide anyway, well… I paid 60 quetzales for the Pacaya tour (with transport and guide).
From Antigua, go to the Atitlan Lake. On the Atitlan Lake there are 13 villages that have a direct access to the lake. Plenty of information about the Atitlan villages, as well as the 5 day hike around the Atitlan Lake you can find under the following link - and see the description under each of the videos:
From Atitlan Lake you should go to Semuc Champey. It is a very tiring journey so you definitively should rest before! For this stretch - take the shuttle!
In Semuc Champey and around the Lanquin area there are plenty of hiking options. But what you should not miss out on, is of course - the waterfalls and pools of Semuc Champey. The entrance is 50 quetzales for foreigners.
I would probably stay close to Semuc Champey (and not in Lanquin), so that you can go early in the morning and avoid the crowds. When I arrived there around 8.00 am there were not many people around and I was able to enjoy it much more than when all the tour groups arrived. Ahh, and in Semuc Champey it rains a lot.
So - go early, hike up to the Mirador, then go down to the pools.
Take a padlock with you, so that you can safely lock your belongings when you will be splashing and swimming in the pools. While choosing where you put your stuff, make sure you chose the locker which is undamaged!
You can visit the Kanba caves on the same day. the last guided visit is at 3pm. It costs 60 quetzales and is well worth it! You have to go with the guide, and actually for this type of situations, I do fully agree it is organized this way.
After the cave experience, go for tubing - that is just 10 quetzales more. You won’t be that long on the tube, but in my opinion, that is long enough for the experience.
After Semuc Champey go to Flores. Flores is an island in the Peten state, close to the Tikal ruins. I think you might want to stay there the afternoon you arrived from Semuc, walk around the island, try some food on the bridge food stalls (las Mesitas) - 3 tostadas or mini portions of salads for 5 quetzales. Enjoy the spectacular sunset and go to the other side of the lake - San Miguel to the lookout point. Also, you can use the afternoon to plan your tour to Tikal. I personally would do it with a tour. So, for the morning tour with a guide you can pay 70 quetzales, 60 without the guide. The local transport in the morning to and from Tikal will cost you at least 40, plus a transport to the Santa Elena bus terminal if you don’t want to walk at 5 am in the morning… So - in this case - the option with the guide is a good one, cause you will get the basic understating from the area and s/he is going to accompany you till 10-11am. And after that - you can just walk around the ruins by yourself. Till the last transport (which tends to be around 4-5pm). Which is great.
If you can stay more time in the area, I would go to el Remate. It is a much less popular and has much more beautiful surrounding than Flores, is closer to nature (plenty of howling monkeys there).
If you have any questions, let me know in the comments below. I am always very happy to answer any of your doubts. Cause I want you to have a fabulous time, even if you are very limited time in Guatemala!
If you need any particular content - please let me know. I want it to be useful for you!

Tikal Guatemala - Ancient Mayan City & Star Wars Rebel Base | 90+ Countries with 3 Kids
Welcome to Tikal, the impressive ancient town of one of the most powerful Mayan kingdoms!
Guatemala is known for being a region sprinkled with ancient town ruins, and Tikal is maybe one of the most fascinating ones. Today Tikal may be to Guatemala what the Great pyramids are to Egypt. Surrounded by rainforest, it is placed 300 kilometers north of Guatemala city.
It is one of the largest archaeological sites and urban centers of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization. In 1979 it was also declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The researchers estimate that it was populated by around 10,000 to as high as 90,000 inhabitants.
There were many speculations about the origin and meaning of its name, but its precise meaning still remains obscure. It didn’t get the name Tikal until its discovery in the 1840s. Before that, it was called Yax Mutal. Researches translated it as “the waterhole” because Tikal used to be a reservoir for hunters and travelers in the region. Alternative suggestions for the meaning of its name are the place of the voices in the Itza Maya language and First Mutal because Mutul was the name of the kingdom itself.
Even though the name itself remains a mystery, Tikal is still one of the best understood Maya cities, because the tombs of many rulers were discovered and the investigation of their monuments, temples, and palaces helped explain its history.
