Guatemala

Starting in Antigua, Guatemala and finishing in San Jose, Costa Rica, the trip also features ruins in Honduras, islands in Nicaragua, beaches in El Salvador and so much more.

When you leave your creature comforts at home and hit the road, the concept of openness takes on a whole new meaning.

Yes, there’s incredible ruins in nearby nations such as Guatemala, Belize and Honduras too… and we’re here to tell you about them. 

One thing stuck out on my recent trip. Mostly because it was unbelievably strange and wonderful: a visit to Maximón, the Smoking God.

If you’re looking for a chilled out Central American vibe, Antigua – a Guatemalan city famous for it’s Spanish Baroque architecture (and for good reason) – will have you hooked …

Move over Mexico, your neighbours have some pretty sensational tastebud pleasers of their own.
