There is so much to love about Guatemala: majestic volcanoes, turquoise rivers, charming colonial towns, and ancient Mayan ruins hidden in the mountains.

Guatemala is one of Central America’s least developed nations, which means you’re in for a lot of awesome jungle adventures, super friendly locals, and incredible cultural experiences.

After spending some time in Guatemala, it became obvious that it was one of our favourite Central American countries (which is difficult to admit; it’s like asking who your favourite child is).
