Why Guatemala?
Guatemala offers an extraordinary blend of ancient wonder and living culture that few destinations can match. The country's indigenous Mayan communities, particularly the women artisans, warmly welcome visitors into their world of centuries-old textile traditions and culinary heritage, creating opportunities for genuine connection and cultural exchange.
From the misty volcanic highlands surrounding stunning Lake Atitlán to the UNESCO World Heritage sites of colonial Antigua and the rugged terrain of Acatenango, Guatemala packs incredible diversity into a compact, accessible country. It's an ideal destination for women travelers seeking both adventure and authenticity, where you can challenge yourself hiking active volcanoes one day and find serenity in a lakeside the next, all while being embraced by some of the warmest hospitality in Central America..

Do I need to be in great shape?
This trip is primarily a cultural sightseeing trip with one big hike up and down Volcano Acatenango. The hike is a challenging 8.5 mile round trip hike with 5000 feet of vertical gain with an optional additional hike to the saddle of Volcano Fuego. We will have lots of prescribed breaks with opportunities to buy snacks from local vendors . While it is achievable to many people who have no experience hiking, you will enjoy your time more and be safer if you do some training in advance.

Book with a friend or book alone, either way the most important thing is to show up as you are! One of the awesome benefits to joining a group trip like this is the opportunity to make new friends. You are welcome to book with a friend if you the stars align and you both want in on this trip but it isn’t necessary. If you and a friend or two want to book together that is excellent. Let me know so you can room together.
I can’t make this trip, when is the next one?
