With its fascinating Maya civilization, highland mountains and volcanoes, indigenous markets, the cobblestone roads of colonial Antigua, and vibrant colours, Guatemala is a magical and captivating country. Its culture is a rich but disturbing blend of Spanish and native Mayan elements.
Key places to visit are Antigua, Tikal, Lake Atitlan, and Chichicastenango. Copan, across the Honduran border, is worth a visit. Or combine with Honduras, Belize or Mexico to savour 'La Ruta Maya', or finish off basking in the azure waters of the Caribbean.

Laura: I wanted to thank you for your assistance with our trip; it was great. The day we went to the Galapagos we discovered that we had been put on the Coral II instead of the Coral I; it was not a problem since the accommodations and personnel were fine but I just wanted you to know that Kleintours does do some switching without notice.
It turned out that the Coral I had been chartered by a group. The Lima Tours people were great. Thanks again for your help;........
