About Guatemala, modern and colonial; where every region is a few hours away by road. The Plateau offers natural beauty, highlands and traditions. Petén has natural reservoirs where you can live the Mayan adventure: “Tikal”. Izabal surrounds you with garifuna´s joy and Caribbean landscapes and The Pacific with volcanic sand coasts. The Verapaces are natural paradise of leafy forests, waterfalls, natural pools like Semuc Champey; and the Eastern is a mistic region with Ipala Lagoon, Sierra de las Minas and Esquipulas with its Black Christ.
