  • Join us on this episode as we drive from Lanquín to Semuc Champey to find paradise in Guatemala! The drive from Lanquín is about 30-40 minutes and wow it is rough! Definitely need a high clearance vehicle and four-wheel drive it's nice to have, but not necessary. One car We saw couldn't make it up one of the hills and it had front-wheel drive.
    We howler monkeys on our hike to the top of a mountain that overlooks the swimming pools. The hike took us 30 minutes up in 30 minutes down and we did it with five kids in sandals, but it was tough.
    Absolutely crystal clear and beautiful water to swim in. We really enjoy our time here, please comment below to let us know if you have visited.

    Guatemala is so rich and beautiful. 12th producer of silver in the world and 20th producer of Gold. Besides having big reserves of nickel, jade, and many other resources. Too bad big mining companies owned by the Rothschild, Rockefeller etc. have been taking almost everything for a century paying little to non taxes. Guatemala is a paradise. Las Malvinas belong to Argentina and Belice belongs to Guatemala. Guatemala internationally sabotaged but never ever forgotten. God bless the men of good will

    I visited semuc two years ago , it left me speechless . About the coconuts, i think they have show their boss how many coconuts they sold.🤔

      Yes speechless is a good description. 🙂 And yes perhaps on the coconuts. 👍

    The hard part of the coconut its used by the indigenous people all over guatemala, as a cup or a bowl or whatever they can think of. What I never heard is them asking for it back

    God's Creation mesmerize me old the time! A very picturesque video with a lovely family, your kids are very fortunate with parents like you. Now I know why is very adequate a 4by4 car in those roads! In the future I'm planning go to that beautiful spot in 4x4 Jeep. Those monkey's also live in Tikal jungles and make a lot noisy similar to Jurassic park movies.

    Congratulations guys.!!🙂👍 Actually I am originally from Guatemala I've never been in that beautiful breath taking place, thanks forsharing 💞.
    It doesn't make sense, about the coconut, I will guess, they could get in trouble probably because they were not authorized to sell inside the park, didn't want to leave any evidence of the crime
    🤣😂 just a wild guess... like you said no reason why to return the coconut shell. 🙏

    First and foremost; thank you for supporting the locals in Guatemala. I am originally from Guatemala, but Honestly I don't have any idea why they asked you guys to returns the coconuts

    I think maybe you have to Comeback the coconut, because they use the pulp of the coconut for make candies or sell the pulp.

    The rickshaws are called Tuk tuks. Tuk Tuk for the singular.

    Fun fact: they actually used the howler monkey sounds in Jurassic Park to make the dinosaur noises lol

  • @Moon20791

    The reason why they asked you to give the empty coconut 🥥 back is because they aren’t supposed to be selling it. If you go down with the coconut the park rangers or guards will see it and they will get in trouble. Even though they are not doing anything wrong they aren’t allowed to sell anything up there. That’s so sad as they are just trying to make a living and are not hurting anybody. Beautiful place for sure! Thank you for sharing. I am Guatemalan and never had the chance to go there.

    You don’t walk inside the cave or tunnel how you call that

  • @LMDinNC

    There is coconut meat in the coconut, so after the juice is drunk maybe they harvest the coconut. It would be wasteful to throw it away.

    • @OTeamFamilyAdventures
      @OTeamFamilyAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, that seems like a very reasonable reason, thanks for your comment!
