About this trip

Nine days across Guatemala, moving from rainforest ruins to volcanic lakes to colonial streets, with plenty of highland culture in between.

You'll spend time at Tikal's pyramids, swim in the pools at Semuc Champey, browse the market stalls at Chichicastenango and cross Lake Atitlán before settling into Antigua's cobbled streets.

It's a sightseeing-heavy route that covers a lot of ground, built for those who want to see Guatemala's big-name spots in one go rather than settle into one place.

What you'll do

  • Explore the Tikal pyramids in the rainforest
  • Swim in the turquoise pools of Semuc Champey
  • Browse the stalls at Chichicastenango market
  • Cross Lake Atitlán with its ring of volcanoes
  • Wander the colonial streets of Antigua
Good to know
  • Covers several distinct regions, so expect a fair amount of travel time between stops
  • Suits those who want a broad introduction to Guatemala's history, landscapes and markets rather than a slow-paced trip
