Rio Dulce Guatemala | Jewel of the Guatemalan Caribbean | 90+ Countries with 3 Kids
Welcome to the wonderful Rio Dulce, an extraordinary river in Guatemala!
Did you know that the movie “The New Adventures of Tarzan” was entirely filmed here in 1935? The beautiful rainforest you see in the movie is hidden in Guatemala and still well-preserved. To get a good shot of the forest they had to use some locations using the railroad service in Guatemala.
It is a spectacular place rich with flora and fauna, great views, folklore, beaches, and traditional locals. Being so breath-taking, many people call it the jewel of the Guatemalan Caribbean. A great place where you can spend the most peaceful time with the family.
Being a part of a lake and river system known as the department of Izabal, it is a great sailboat cruising destination. Rio Dulce flows out of the Lake Izabal and is soon spanned by one of the biggest bridges in Central America.
On one side of the bridge is the town El Relleno and a nearby orphanage Casa Guatemala that provides children with education and nourishment. On the other side is the town of Fronteras. It is considered to be the center of Rio Dulce, sometimes called by the same name, and many people arrive by canoes to visit the town because it contains a local vegetable market.

Coatepec, que hacer en un fin de semana
Coatepec es un pueblito mágico de Veracruz considerado la capital del café de todo México, acompáñanos a descubrir qué hacer en Coatepec este fin de semana.
Las actividades que te proponemos realizar en Coatepec son:
*Hospedarte en el bosque de niebla
-Hay una antigua caballeriza en medio del bosque que está disponible para que la rentes a través de airbnb, si no conoces airbnb, te estás perdiendo de lugares increíbles como este a unos precios excelentes, dale click a este enláce para crear tu cuenta ahora mismo y reservar la caballeriza con un descuento de $450 pesos.
*Recorrido turístico
-Hay dos recorridos en Coatepec, te recomendamos el Piojito, es el mejorsito, nosotros nos subimos al magibus pero parece que vas en un microbus.
*Comer en los Arcos de Belem
-La comida está deliciosa, imáginense que Rosy dijo que le gustaba más el mole de ahí ¡que el de su abuelita!. En serio es muy sabroso, no se que le ponen a la comida pero está deliciosa. El mejor lugar para comer en Coatepec, punto.
*Subir al mirador del cerro de las culebras
-Sube a pie al cerro, pero encuentra las escaleras por que si no si que te vas a cansar recorriéndolo todo por la rampa de los autos. Ve lo más tempranito que puedas, ten en cuenta que lo abren a las 10am.
*Visita la Parroquia de San Jerónimo
-Está bonita la iglesia, lo más padre es su atrio y sus fuentes, no necesitas más de 15 minutos para recorrerlo y te queda cerca del parque Hidalgo.
*Visita el palacio municipal de Coatepec
-Lo que vale la pena del palacio municipal es un mural que narra pictóricamente la historia del Pueblo. También hay unos baños públicos que puedes usar si ya te anda
*La casa de los Azulejos
-Venden un montón de artesanías interesantes, nuestro local favorito fue el de Noemí que tiene su tienda llamada Mirlo, su trabajo es genial, te lo recomendamos mucho.
*Visita el museo del café
-Toma un taxi y pide que te lleven al museo del café, el recorrido dura como 45 minutos y está padre por que puedes probar un café muy rico al final del recorrido. Te garantizo que terminando no volverás a ver el café de la misma forma.
*Come churros en la plaza
-Los tradiconales churros preparados, son super ricos y baratos, la gente hace fila por hacerse de una bolsita o un plato. Es algo que debes de probar, no importa que estés a dieta, si no los comes te vas a arrepentir.

Muchas gracias, ahora ya sabes qué hacer en Coatepec este fin de semana, nos veos el próximo viernes.
Semuc Champey, Guatemala: One of the Most Beautiful Places I've Visited
You can read about my experiences at Semuc Champey in my blog post:
One of my favorite spots in the world is a natural wonder called Semuc Champey. This limestone land bridge, which extends about 1,000 feet over a gushing river, is found near Lanquin, Guatemala. Formed into that limestone, there are gentle waterfalls, small caves, and turquoise pools where people can enjoy a leisurely swim, surrounded by tropical paradise.

Week 6: Guatemala! Independence, Ruins and Rain...
In 2018, we quit our jobs to travel full time. In week 6, we reached the highly anticipated Guatemala. We fell in love with Antigua’s European atmosphere and marvelled at the ‘most beautiful lake in the Latin world’.
It’s a long one but a good’un!
