    Tikal

    Since the temperature here will reach 30 to 40 degrees at noon, and it will usually rain in the afternoon, the local tour guide recommends to report to the group at 4:30 in the morning to visit Tikal, the most famous Mayan ruins in Guatemala.

    Semuc Champey

    I thought there would be a private minibus from Copan to go directly to the place I want to go to in Guatemala, but because there are not enough tourists now, there is no such private car to pick up the job, so I can only take public transportation. So yesterday I spent the whole day on four buses. Fortunately, I didn’t need to wait for the bus in the middle. It took a total of nine hours, and I arrived at the tour at 7 o’clock in the evening…

    Antigua

    It took half an hour to fly from El Salvador to Guatemala City in the evening. After getting off the plane, I went directly to Antigua Guatemala. The airport minibus had to gather three people to drive, because it was the last flight, and I waited for ten minutes alone. No one else is going to Antigua, so I can only call U...
