In November 2023, I traveled to Guatemala for 3 weeks with my girlfriend. The main destination of our trip was the permanently active Acatenango volcano. However, our visit to Guatemala started with the old capital Anitgua. Due to bad weather, we visited Lake Atitlan and the market in Chichicastenango before our big hike up the volcano. We spent the next two days climbing Acatenango, which was very intense but worth every single drop of sweat. A great experience! We then traveled by night bus to the north of the country, to the city of Flores. Finally, we spent a few days in Rio Dulce and again in Antigua City on our round trip.
