Our Adventures to Lake Atitlan, Guatemala | Episode 40
WE are half way through our three month break from sailing for the hurricane season and still adventuring throughout inland Guatemala.
This episode WE trek a little bit west from Antigua to an absolutely stunning getaway at Lake Atitlan. This beautiful mountain lake is surrounded by volcanoes and is in fact the lake it self is a crater from a volcano at one time. We waste not time exploring these beautiful vistas. Our time (and now this video) is filled with sightseeing, shopping, chocolate, zip lines, monkeys, butterflies, poolside recovery, boat rides, and just amazing times!!
We wander back and fourth to some of the main lakeside villages; San Marcos, San Juan and San Pedro. Each one offering a slightly different feel to the next.
Thank you for joining the Adventures of WE!

Magical Lake Atitlan Guatemala Travel Guide 4K
In this Lake Atitlan travel guide we explore 5 villages around the lake. Including Santiago De Atitlan, San Juan La Laguna, Santa Catarina, San Antonio Palopo and Panajachel. I would say this is the best place to visit in Guatemala because there are many villages to explore around the lake and culture to explore. But best of all is probably going to be the incredible natural beauty and scenery of the lake Atitlan.
There are a few towns around the lake also worth mentioning but we did not go. Such as San Marcos, which is popular with new age explorers, San Pedro La Laguna with foreign tourist and San Lucas for its proximity outside of the lake region to the Pacific Ocean. Our travel guide is from Santa Cruz La Laguna and says that one is the best. If you can get around to many of the towns and villages you will certainly feel culturally enriched and as if you really met the Mayan people.

ABOUT US:
As the #retirementtravelers, 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! ???? ???? ????
Exploring San Juan La Laguna with Voltan Adventures at Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
We had a great time exploring San Juan La Laguna with Voltan Adventures at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. Our tour guide, Pedro, was so knowledgeable not only about his country and culture, but on so many other subjects as well. We especially loved watching the textile making demonstration and learning how coffee is made. Pedro also told us that Guatemala has the best coffee in the world. Watch to find out why!
If you're looking for a great guide in Guatemala, definitely go with Voltan Adventures:

What it's Like to Live on Lake Atitlán, Guatemala
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So many people have asked us what it's like living on Lake Atitlán in Guatemala. This video is the first of several we will be uploading to show just that! Lake Atitlan is an incredible place, and to live there is an amazing experience.
Lake Atitlan has been called the most beautiful lake in the world. Surrounded by steep mountain walls and framed by 3 ancient volcanoes, it has a reputation for being a mystical place. It draws visitors from all over the world.
It is located in the Guatemalan highlands about 90 miles from Guatemala City and is actually a Caldera from the eruption of an ancient supervolcano. The lake reaches depths of over a 1,000 feet (340 meters), making it the deepest lake in Central America! It's impossible to ignore the towering volcanoes, San Pedro, Toliman, and Atitlan looking over the lake like sentinels. On the slopes of these volcanoes live the remnants of the Maya people. Indigenous communities that seem frozen in time.
Living on Lake Atitlan is an incredible experience, and one that you will never forget!

TRAVELLING TO LAKE ATITLAN (How to get to Lake Atitlan, Guatemala via chicken bus)
Travelling to Lake Atitlan on public transport (aka a chicken bus) was chaotic, but surprisingly easy and VERY cheap!
We ended up taking three different chicken buses AND a ferry because that was the safest and quickest way to get to Lake Atitlan. It also turned out to be a fun experience. The locals helped every time we got lost, which was a lot. Not to mention a stunning bus journey along windy, mountain roads and a scenic ferry ride across one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. All this for only 64 GTQ pp! So, here’s how to get to Lake Atitlan, Guatemala via chicken bus, a cheap and perfectly safe way to travel!

WHAT TO DO ON LAKE ATITLAN (Hiking up Rostro Maya and exploring the colourful San Juan)
What to do on Lake Atitlan? Which towns to visit? Well, if you like breath taking views, quaint, colourful streets and hiking up to amazing spots, we’ve got you covered!
Hiking up Rostro Maya, or Indian’s Nose as many people know it, and exploring the colourful San Juan took us two days. The perfect amount of time before moving on to another town on Lake Atitlan, or another location altogether. San Juan is known for its weaving co-op, led by women who have been making beautiful clothes, cushions and rugs for the last millennium. So, if you want to go shopping, make sure you bring cash.
