TOP Things to do in Guatemala City ????????
In this travel vlog, we spent 48 hours in Guatemala City. Most tourists who visit Guatemala choose to skip Guatemala City and make their way directly to Antigua, Guatemala. Most tourists skip Guatemala city because of stereotypes about how dangerous it is. While parts of the city are indeed dangerous, doing some research and staying in the safer neighborhoods makes this city worth visiting.
On day 1, we visited the national palace of culture to understand the history of the country a bit better. This palace is actively used by the country's president and is really worth visiting given that a guided tour costs only $7. We also visited Guatemala City's best mall - Oakland Mall which is better than any mall I have seen in Canada.
On day 2, we visited the La Aurora zoo and the Esquilandia amusement park. The amusement park was old and a bit small but it had it's own charm given that we were one of the few people there and had all the rides to ourselves.
On day 3, we visited the Central Market of Guatemala which was an amazing place to try the local food and see the day to day life. We found the market in Guatemala city to be very different from the markets in Colombia.

The GUATEMALA CITY they DON’T tell YOU about! (con subtitulos)
What comes to mind when you hear Guatemala City or Guatemala in general? Is it danger? That it is an unsafe travel destination? Well unfortunately for many who haven’t visited this beautiful country those are the words they use to describe it, especially when it comes to Guatemala City. Guatemala City is not only the capital of Guatemala but it is the largest city in Central America. Most tourists choose to skip it all together based on it’s bad reputation but over our years of traveling we have come to know to not believe everything you hear or read on the internet so we have made it a point to seek the truth. Is Guatemala City a good place to visit? Are there fun things to do in Guatemala City or is it a place you should stay away from? Well we hope that this video gives you a bit of an inside scoop as to what Guatemala City is like so the next time you fly into Guatemala you can give it a chance or not! #guatemalacity #guatemala

RETIRE in Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, or Colombia? | Best Place to Retire
There are nearly 9 million US expats doing international living around the world. These past four months we have spent time in Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala and Colombia and have met many expats in each location. These are some of the best countries to retire in 2022 and we plan to show you more great potential locations as we travel the world. In today’s video, we discuss some pros and cons of a selected city in each location and why you might want to explore one of these locations for a visit or even a permanent relocation. We try to give some expat advice to help you make the best decision on the best place to retire and potentially living abroad.
If you choose to retire in Panama there are several good locations. Boquete is a beautiful mountain town with a vibrant expat community, cooler weather and significant expat discounts.
If you would like to retire in Costa Rica, you will find beautiful beaches, a laid back atmosphere and exotic wildlife. Costa Rica living may be for you if you like the “pura vida” lifestyle.
A favorite place of ours, if we were retire in Guatemala, is Lake Atitlan. It is a magnificent lake with volcanoes, surrounded by villages of friendly people. If you are trying to decide where to retire, Lake Atitlan Guatemala should at least make it on your list.
Our last place we visited was Medellin, Colombia. We may very well retire in Colombia based on the cost of living that is about 60% lower than the United States, great weather, good healthcare and a good expat community. It is one of the cheapest countries to retire, but still has a great infrastructure and modern conveniences.
As we travel the globe, we hope we will help you find the best place in the world to retire and share our experiences along the way.
Please join us for a 10-year journey and world travel vlog. Perhaps our world travel will give some ideas on what to do after retirement and where to travel in 2022. As older travel vloggers, we have different perspectives as we show you where to visit in 2022 and give you our experiences as we travel the world and show you where to travel now.
We hope you will subscribe, join us on our adventure, give us some likes and send us comments and suggestions. It means so much. Thank you and hope everyone has a wonderful travel 2022.

ABOUT US:
As the retirement travelers, we have always dreamed of traveling, but we never in a million years thought we would become #travelvloggers and start a YouTube channel. But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us.
In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years.
In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a suitcase and a small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next ten years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren.
We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! ???? ???? ????

The absolute 5 top places of Guatemala
I would like to share with you the top 5 places in Guatemala to visit if you only have 2 weeks. I have spent so far 6 months in Guatemala, exploring it to the fullest.
After your arrival in the Capital City of Guatemala take a bus straight to Antigua (the normal chicken buses run till about 6pm. but you might not want to wait till the last one:).
Antigua is a brilliant vibrant city. It might be a bit touristy and overprices, yes… But! It is still worth it. I encourage you to also travel off season, like me. That has many more advantages than disadvantages.
If you are into hiking, I would recommend climbing up the Acatenango volcano, with the view over Fuego. Fuego is one of the 3 active volcanoes in Guatemala (the others being Santiaguito (2,550 meters - 8,366 ft) close to Xela, and Pacaya (2,552 metres - 8,373 ft) close to Antigua). It has a big, devastating eruption (very sad for all of us, since many people lost their lives:( )on the 3rd of June 2018. Since then the eruption pattern changed. The footage of Fuego in the video was taken by me, just 2 weeks before the big eruption. And I know that it doesn’t look like this any more. It is still a great hike, but I just want you to manage your expectations accordingly.
How exactly to organize an Acatenango tour:
And all the Fuego eruptions you can see in the following one:
And to go to Pacaya in the early morning. And since you have to go there with a guide anyway, well… I paid 60 quetzales for the Pacaya tour (with transport and guide).
From Antigua, go to the Atitlan Lake. On the Atitlan Lake there are 13 villages that have a direct access to the lake. Plenty of information about the Atitlan villages, as well as the 5 day hike around the Atitlan Lake you can find under the following link - and see the description under each of the videos:
From Atitlan Lake you should go to Semuc Champey. It is a very tiring journey so you definitively should rest before! For this stretch - take the shuttle!
In Semuc Champey and around the Lanquin area there are plenty of hiking options. But what you should not miss out on, is of course - the waterfalls and pools of Semuc Champey. The entrance is 50 quetzales for foreigners.
I would probably stay close to Semuc Champey (and not in Lanquin), so that you can go early in the morning and avoid the crowds. When I arrived there around 8.00 am there were not many people around and I was able to enjoy it much more than when all the tour groups arrived. Ahh, and in Semuc Champey it rains a lot.
So - go early, hike up to the Mirador, then go down to the pools.
Take a padlock with you, so that you can safely lock your belongings when you will be splashing and swimming in the pools. While choosing where you put your stuff, make sure you chose the locker which is undamaged!
You can visit the Kanba caves on the same day. the last guided visit is at 3pm. It costs 60 quetzales and is well worth it! You have to go with the guide, and actually for this type of situations, I do fully agree it is organized this way.
After the cave experience, go for tubing - that is just 10 quetzales more. You won’t be that long on the tube, but in my opinion, that is long enough for the experience.
After Semuc Champey go to Flores. Flores is an island in the Peten state, close to the Tikal ruins. I think you might want to stay there the afternoon you arrived from Semuc, walk around the island, try some food on the bridge food stalls (las Mesitas) - 3 tostadas or mini portions of salads for 5 quetzales. Enjoy the spectacular sunset and go to the other side of the lake - San Miguel to the lookout point. Also, you can use the afternoon to plan your tour to Tikal. I personally would do it with a tour. So, for the morning tour with a guide you can pay 70 quetzales, 60 without the guide. The local transport in the morning to and from Tikal will cost you at least 40, plus a transport to the Santa Elena bus terminal if you don’t want to walk at 5 am in the morning… So - in this case - the option with the guide is a good one, cause you will get the basic understating from the area and s/he is going to accompany you till 10-11am. And after that - you can just walk around the ruins by yourself. Till the last transport (which tends to be around 4-5pm). Which is great.
If you can stay more time in the area, I would go to el Remate. It is a much less popular and has much more beautiful surrounding than Flores, is closer to nature (plenty of howling monkeys there).
If you have any questions, let me know in the comments below. I am always very happy to answer any of your doubts. Cause I want you to have a fabulous time, even if you are very limited time in Guatemala!
