Guatemala is now several months in the rearview mirror, which has given me plenty of time to reflect and reminisce. Our tour ended up being shortened by over seven months of cancer treatment to start and an early departure of ten weeks to accommodate Vietnamese language training and home leave. By the end, we spent only 14 of the 24 months we were originally assigned to the country physically in Guatemala. That left us with plenty of missed tourism opportunities, but we feel like we saw enough of the country to say that we got a full Guatemalan experience.Â
Out and About in Guatemala
We’ve gone on a number of trips around Guatemala since our first visit to Lake Atitlan in December. Most of these were limited to extended weekends or day trips and included trips with family and friends alike. Some stops along the way were new to us, while we returned to many others. Here is a recap of our Guatemala 2024 tour to date.
