Hi All,
Hope you enjoy your stay in Guatemala. Your stay will be what you make of it no matter how much advice anyone gives you. Experience is the best medicine..done that been there and have a t-shirt that says so...Experiences? Guided horse tours, guided sailboat tours, owned three restaurants, managed hotels and B&B's, been robbed of everything (and got back on my own two w/o any help from anybody), been imprisoned, been stopped at checkpoint (twice) w/o driver license or passport or vehicle registration in possession and was not arrested or detained, learned to speak a local dialect, volunteered with street kids, managed volunteer program, bought 6 horses to do tours of my own (bad idea that one), remodeled two bars/restaurants in Antigua,....well u get the idea. Good luck to you and yours
