Guatemala is home to volcanoes, rainforests, shimmering Lake Atitlán and ancient Mayan sites.

The colourful, colonial city of Antigua is a highlight of visiting Guatemala, and there's plenty to do beyond the capital. Hike up an active volcano, enjoy the views of Lake Atitlán, and explore Tikal National Park which has a UNESCO declaration and is one of the major sites of the Mayan civilization.
