Lake Atitlan Guatemala Travel Guide | 90+ Countries with 3 Kids

Lake Atitlan is one of the most popular places to visit in Guatemala, and for good reason. Imagine a huge lake surrounded by volcanoes and dotted with traditional villages and small towns, each with their own personality. 

Being that Lake Atitlan is easily accessible from the travel hub of Antigua, many travelers add a stay at the lake to their Guatemala trip.

You'll mingle with locals, backpackers, yogis and church groups on mission trips. You can choose to spend your time relaxing, hiking, volunteering, getting off the grid, hanging out with other foreigners, drinking a beer on the lake, cleansing your body and soul, or all of the above!

There are lots of things to do in Lake Atitlan, plus it’s perfect environment to get away from it all and simply relax. It's no surprise that people often end up staying around Lake Atitlan for much longer than expected.

Enjoy the video and make sure to let us know where you're watching from!

Antigua Guatemala Travel Guide - Step Into Europe in Central America | 90+ Countries with 3 Kids

Welcome to Antigua Guatemala, a colorful and elegant little town in Central America.

It is a small city that used to be a part of the Spanish colony. Famous for its well-preserved Baroque-influenced architecture, as well as colonial churches ruins, it used to be the capital city. After a hazardous earthquake in 1773, the Spanish crown decided to move it to a new place which is today known as Guatemala city. Some people refused to leave and what was left was renamed into “Antigua Guatemala” meaning Old Guatemala.

Today, it only has around 30 000 inhabitants, but it is a calm and cultural place with the buildings of vivid colors, clean cobblestone streets and breath-taking architecture, very popular for tourists. It is a really cute place which is also under UNESCO’s protection.

Walking around the city, there are views of the imposing Volcán de Agua to the south and the twin peaks of Volcán de Fuego and Acatenango to the west. There are many lined with farm-to-table restaurants, contemporary art galleries, and design studios. The whole town seems so sophisticated, but in such an unusual way, since it is a combination of vivid colors, Spanish culture, rich history, and Guatemalan spirit and surrounding nature.

With its booming coffee scene and boutique hotels, Antigua is quickly garnering appeal as one of the most alluring cities in Central America and we can now see why.

Enjoy the video and let us know where you're watching from!

3 Day Family Trip to Guatemala Vlog! Visit Antigua and Lake Atitlan!

In November 2018, we made a very random and impromptu plan to travel to Guatemala. This country had never been on our bucket list. We had never even remotely thought about it as our travel destination. We were just searching for cheap tickets for a quick 3 day trip, and we found great flight deals for Guatemala City from Houston. After consulting a Guatemalan coworker, we were directed to Nahual Tours, a tour company based in Guatemala, that specializes in organizing guided tours of various parts of the country. They have many different packages to choose from. The tour guides are very friendly and helpful! Our guide was Rodrigo Chun, and he was a lot of fun and very considerate.

We landed in Guatemala City, but we did not stay there. We were very short on time, so we could only fit in so much to our trip. After visiting the beautiful country, we have realized there are so many things we still have to do and see there. On our future bucket list in Guatemala is Tikal, the famous Mayan Ruins. Also, very high on our list is the tour of Volcan Pacaya. We would love to revisit Antigua and enjoy the cobblestone streets, the colorful colonial buildings and the lush greenery!

Here are the names and links of the places mentioned in the video, should you want to more info:

Travel with us to Santa Cruz La Laguna Lake Atitlan Guatemala! In this Guatemala Travel Video Guide we show you this Maya village which offers the best lake and volcano view, delicious Guatemala food, local culture and colourful street art murals.

Santa Cruz Guatemala, located next to Lago de Atitlan is a charming and peaceful village overlooking the gorgeous lake and the three majestic volcanoes: Volcano San Pedro, Volcano Tolimán and Volcano Atitlán. See them in this Lake Atitlan Guatemala Travel Vlog!

We explore this Guatemalan Maya village three times. It could be the best place Guatemala offers. We have our drone with us. The local kids love it! If you want to travel Guatemala 2020 we recommend you to consider bringing a drone to capture this beautiful country from the air.

Santa Cruz La Laguna is situated on the steep mountainside of #lakeatitlan in the western highlands of Guatemala. The indigenous Maya of Santa Cruz are part of the Kaq’chikel ethnic group.

You reach Santa Cruz La Laguna by taking a boat or hiking Lake Atitlan trails. From the dock to the main village of Santa Cruz you can either take a tuk tuk or walk.

We visit CECAP in Santa Cruz La Laguna, which has an important role in the town, and we highly recommend you to visit it. Here you find Amigos de Santa Cruz, a non-profit organization educating and empowering the Santa Cruz community.

If you would like to go shopping in Guatemala Manos Cruceñas artisan store is the place. Indigenous Mayan women artisans from Santa Cruz offer beautiful handmade products with the most stunning view over the lake.

You also find a rooftop restaurant Café Sabor Cruceño which is run by young CECAP Culinary Program graduates. Delicious Guatemala food with beautiful view! We visit this Lake Atitlan restaurant three times.

We bring our new friends and fellow YouTubers Matt & Marti, which are also our neighbours here at Lake Atitlan, to a special buffet event at Café Sabor Cruceño. We are both staying in Airbnbs on the hill between San Pedro and San Juan. We decide to end our amazing day here in Santa Cruz La Laguna with our friends drinking some Guatemalan craft beer at La Iguana Perdida!

We are spending more than one month on Lake Atitlan in Guatemala, one of the most beautiful lakes in the world and also according to many people the best place in Central America. It lies in a caldera, formed by a volcano eruption.

Boat Day on Lake Atitlan with Kids | Guatemala Daily Travel Vlog # 3 / 18

Boat Day on Lake Atitlan with Kids | Guatemala Daily Travel Vlog # 3 / 18
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 3 of our trip to Guatemala was our big boat day on Lake Atitlan! We originally planned 2 visit 3 charming villages on the lake, but, as with any adventure with kids, things didn’t go as planned.

We ended up choosing 2 beautiful villages to visit: San Juan la Laguna & San Pedro la Laguna. After exploring these beautiful towns, we headed to Capitan Sanitago’s favorite beach: Playa Cristalinas, so the boys could swim!

Spending a day on a boat is definitely the best way to see A LOT on Lake Atitlan. We highly recommend booking a private boat tour so that you can customize your day and prioritize the places you want to see most.
