1. Guatemala City
Stay
About the destination: Guatemala City is the capital of Guatemala, and it's the largest and most modern city of the country. Guatemala City is a sprawling city with a mix of modern, colonial and traditional architecture. It has an interesting Old City, great Churches, some good museums and markets, and it´s a good place to see the real Guatemala with its mixtures of Ladino and Indian culture.In zona 13 and 14, in the southern part of the centre of Guatemala City, you will find the impressive Avenida las Americas. This wide boulevard is a tribute to every country in Latin America, from Mexico to Argentina and Chile. It runs from Calle 1 to Calle 20, through what is called the cultural area of the city.The central square in Guatemala City known as Parque Central is the heart of the city and is always a centre of activity. It is also one of the most attractive areas for visitors since many of Guatemala City's most notable features, such as the Cathedral, many museums, the National Palace, and the National Library, surround the Plaza. Most of the Plaza is an open paved area, perfect to do some shopping, or just sit back and watch everyone else go about their business. There are also splashing fountains where children play and quieter shaded areas, where young lovers seem to occupy every bench. Nearby we have the Central Market, huge market for Guatemalan handicrafts. The genuine and profound hospitality of its inhabitants combined with the city's outstanding cultural legacy and astonishing natural beauty makes Guatemala City a compelling place for travellers.

2. La Antigua
Stay
About the destination: Antigua Guatemala is a beautiful and magical colonial city that has almost 500 years of history, with a privileged climate and an exceptional view of the Fuego and Acatenango volcanoes. The beauty of this city is impressive, so much so that it was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1979. I assure you that if visitors will be fascinated by its historical, gastronomic and cultural attractions. It was built in the Panchoy Valley and named the third seat of the capital of Guatemala. This city is frozen in time, trapped between the thick walls of its temples, still preserving restored buildings from the 16th century. The main attractions of the city are the Palace of the General Captains, the Santa Catalina Convent and Arch, the Plaza Mayor, the Jade Museum, the Antigua Cathedral of Guatemala, the Museum of the University of San Carlos, the Ruta Santa del Hermano Pedro, among others. I recommend you climb Cerro de la Cruz to have an impressive view of the entire city.
