It is alive, magical, mystic, ancestral, and is the most diverse country in Central America. It offers landscapes and experiences that have been captivating travelers for centuries.
Guatemala possesses an extraordinary cultural and natural richness and a privileged geographic location; distances from place to place are very short.
It is known as the country of the eternal spring, and its pleasant weather conditions allows you to visit it during any time of the year. The colorful handcraft markets and regional costumes, the hospitality, and the beauty of the landscapes make Guatemala a place to be kept in the visitors’ heart. Not to mention that the natural, cultural and historic heritage is evident in every corner of the country.
Guatemala offers the natural beauty of volcanoes, stunning trekking routs through the jungles, world class white-water rafting and world record of sailfish catch, caves, paragliding, zip lines and superb natural scenery. Visiting the Archeological National parks or lush canyons in a boat ride make an unforgettable experience.
Many of our visitors ask what happened to the Mayans in Central America, the answer is they’re still here.  It is only in Guatemala that you can experience the living Mayan culture. Traditions, languages, gastronomy and textiles continue to thrive in modern days.   The living Maya culture can be witnessed in its purest form in almost all the towns in the highlands of Guatemala.  Over twenty two Mayan languages are still spoken throughout Guatemala.
The richness and diversity offer you many ways to enjoy your vacation or business trip, since you may find different tourism segments that are offered by tour operators.
Guatemala is the secret….. Discover it!
