The Grandeur of Guatemala

From its Mayan ruins to its active volcanic landscape, Guatemala, just south of Mexico, welcomes families with culture, eco-tourism, and stunning natural beauty.

Families can start their exploration of this Central American country in the colonial city of Antigua, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is beloved for its cobblestone streets, charming markets, and historic ruins. From there, your family can hike the lava field of Pacaya Volcano, where you can roast marshmallows over the volcano's steam vents, take a delicious chocolate-making class at the ChocoMuseu, or ride in a tuk tuks, a unique three-wheeled motorized taxi.

If you are tired from travel, the region's coffee is legendary for its smooth taste and divine aroma. Local coffee farm tours and tastings are also family-friendly.

Delightful for nature lovers of all ages, Lake Atitlan is home to the Atitlan Nature Reserve, a beautiful butterfly house as well as nature trails, a forest, hanging bridges, and a zipline course. Your family can also indulge in a lancha speedboat ride, a water taxi that will take you from town to charming town along the lake.

These locations are also the best places to stay for families: The best Guatemala hotels are in accessible Antigua and picturesque Lake Atitlan.
