This small group trip for solo travelers will take you from the colorful maze of pastel-colored colonial relics of Antigua to the tranquil lake-side towns of Lake Atitlán, exploring the must-sees of Guatemala and hidden local gems.
From tasting local flavors and absorbing ancient history to moving your body in nature, this trip has it all. Enjoy a foodie walking tour through the cobblestone streets and local markets in Antigua, kayak the crystal waters of Lake Atitlán, and hike the volcanic mountainscape. Wander around the Chichcastenango “Chichi” market, one of the largest and most diverse in Central America. Take in the bohemian vibe of San Marcos and witness the spellbinding local weaving practices. Learn about Mayan culture and rituals from a local scholar.
