Most people travel to Antigua, Guatemala because it’s the closest town to two popular hikes: Acatenango and Pacaya. Guatemala City is known to be a bit dangerous (in some areas), so most tourists go straight from the airport to Antigua.
The Acatenango is a volcano, close to Antigua in Guatemala. On this hike you are able to see huge eruptions with lava, which is an absolutely incredible experience you will never forget!
Atitlan is a big lake in Guatemala that people often compare with lake Como in Italy. It is surrounded by volcanoes and 11 little towns, each with its own character. The temperature at Lake Atitlan is beautiful all year round,
