Guatemala next Semana Santa 2013

Question

¡Hola! My family and I are planning a trip to Guatemala next year over Easter. My wife and I visited Guatemala in 1997 at Easter and it was amazing! We explored Antigua city, the ruins in Tikal, Lake Atitlan, the Pacific coast, Panahechal, Solola, and did some volunteer work in a small village called Santa Cruz de Quixaya. It was such a memorable trip that we now want to return with our boys (ages 9 and 11 years old)! We are all members of SpanishDict and we are very enthusiastic about learning Spanish. I would like to ask anyone who has visited Guatemala recently, or who lives there what are some of your recommendations for our family to do and to visit while we are in Guatemala next year (we will be there for about 3 weeks). Thanks in advance to all who answer! ¡Muchas gracias!

Hola Rich! I'm sure someone on here has an answer for you. I have never had the pleasure of going there. - rac1, Jun 1, 2012

Answer 1

It will be very busy on Easter weekend. I loved Antigua. The market was fun and seeing the sites of the city is really splendid.

We have read that Easter weekend is extremely busy, and it definitely was when we were there. - RichSean1725, Jun 2, 2012
