*This is a copy of a posting I put on myspace while on my trip to Guatemala and Honduras, November 07: It is 10:30 am here and I just finished breakfast - feeling lazy so thought I'd post about my volcano experience yesterday. So I have done tours in both Costa Rica and Belize and they were p…

For me its always a pleasure, to come to Antigua Guatemala, i just love this romantic City, the Lights, the streets, the friendly people, the history, everything convines to a great place to visit, relax, and enjoy every minute of it. a visit to a museum is always a must, a coffee at "the Bagel Ba…

Having never peared into a live Volcano before, we decided to undertake an adventure up Volcon Pacaya, an active Volcano just south of Antigua.  Initally we were a bit put off of reports that the climb was "fairly difficult" and lets face it we're not exactely "fairly fit".  T…

I went to Antigua, Guatemala this past May as a nurse volunteer. I helped perform over 80 surgeries in the week I was there. Its was so amazing and beautiful! Cant't wait till next time!

A very beautiful travel to Guatemala, little bit of Honduras, Belize and little bit of Southern Mexico. I saw great places, enjoyed very funny activities and meeting some very nice people (You are one of them Juan Carlos!)

Guatemala has fabulous people. They are friendly and nice. I went to Antigua and Flores.

I Arrived in the much calmer Antigua after short "chicken bus" trip from Guatemala City. Getting on the bus was quite funny, Typically the buses have a driver and a wingman who hangs out the door shouting out where the bus is going , trying to beckon passengers on board and taking the money. S…

Not that I did not have any visitors in there before, but this one was very special and big one! I was finished with my shower, opened the curtain to get the towel…

One week in Antigua is not nearly enough.

Backpacking through Guate in summer 2007, Antigua, San Pedro at Lago Atitlán, Tikal, Lívingston...

Antigua is just one of those tipical tourist towns packed with Spanish Languages schools and foreigners trying to learn Spanish... in other words, its just one big colonial town packed with parties. We arrived late Friday night, just as everything was begining to pick up. We were surrounded by for…

Another free day in Antigua, I got up at 09.00 and not seeing anyone (as previously mentioned 3 had left early to go up Pacaya) I headed out for breakfast. I then strolled to the Central Park and wrote my thoughts on the past few days. For the rest of the day I lazed around the hotel reading my boo…

Early in the morning, we departed our hotel to make arrangement of our tours. If you used a taxi from Guatemala City to Antigua, it would cost you 30$ for one way or you have an option to use a shuttle bus that would approximately cost about fifteen dollars. Anyways, Antigua Tours by Elizabeth…

Finding broomy was pretty easy... it was only a matter of checking facebook, and walking to his hostel. We both admitted that we actually enjoyed not having each others company.... and that we need to go our own way again somewhere down the track...Antigua was a nice town. Old colonial feel. Most i…
