GUATEMALA
Absolutely captivating landscapes run throughout the country and leave us breathless: from the majestic Lake Atitlán, to the imposing volcanoes and the hundreds of perfectly preserved ruins in the middle of the most untamable jungle.
About the Guatemala experience
There are few places like this left. Places with majestic landscapes where man has not yet destroyed everything. Millennial cultures that remain strong and proud despite time.
But the incredible thing about Guatemala is that it makes us clearly perceive how accelerated our lives are. Do we ever notice how little connection we have with the ground we walk on? How little do we stop to breathe deeply?
This country forces you to stop, to chat with your neighbor, to sit for hours to contemplate the spectacular sunset between mountains.
We could tell you a lot about the wonderful things you are going to see, but we can hardly explain the sensations that this trip is going to awaken in you.
