This will save you the trouble of spending hours doing research to plan your perfect trip (this guide has places I didn’t find on the internet beforehand, but is something I wish I had before that would’ve saved me sooo much time).

All you need to know before coming to Guatemala! Save yourself a week by skipping the research and enjoying this breathtaking country with the help of this guide. March marks the end of the dry season, so the land looks tired and everyone is waiting for the rain to come. In my opinion, the best time for a visit is right after the rainy season has finished, and nature is at its most alive phase. But of course, it doesn't matter how green the grass is if you want to see a volcano eruption with your own eyes!

Dive into Guatemala with this guide to Antigua! In this guide, I'll share some of my favorite restaurants, activities, cafes to work from, shops, and more. This is from my perspective as a digital nomad living in and exploring Guatemala. In addition to the classic restaurants and activities, I love finding places to shop local artisans, unique wellness experiences, and veggie-friendly eats. You can find all of that and more in the guide below! Also included are a couple hotels that I've stayed in myself or friends stayed in and highly recommend. I hope this helps you plan an epic trip to Antigua!
