After arriving in Guatemala City, you’ll head about an hour South West to the beautiful town of Antigua. Antigua will be the home base for much of the trip.

It is known for its Colonial Era Spanish architecture, it is also surrounded by three beautiful volcanoes. Agua, Fuego, and Acatenango volcanos can all be seen on a clear day. You’ll get settled in, and meet your guides.

Once we’re acquainted we’ll go out to dinner as a group to get the good vibes rolling!
