    Thanks for all the info. We’re going tomorrow and I am so glad I watched this because we’re staying with a humanitarian group on Lake Atitlan and going to Antiqua next week. All our accommodations and meals are already taken care of but the weather and money and other info is super useful:)

    Do you think you could do this type of video for your biggest or favorite trips this year? I know doing it for each one could be a lot but this was so helpful!

      So glad you find them helpful!! I don’t think I can do it for every destination but I will try to do it for the places that I feel like are harder to plan!!

    Hi @Worldwide Wu, I have booked a flight to Guatemala and wanted to get a gauge on how much acatenango trips cost. If you do t mind me asking, how much did it cost?
    Also, in Antigua, you mentioned a jade museum. Do you know if they do custom? Greatly appreciate any advice you can give :)

    • @WorldwideWu
      @WorldwideWu  14 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi I didn’t climb Acatenango but the tour company I linked in the description box offers them! Highly recommend checking that out for pricing. And I’m not sure if they do custom jade pieces.. so sorry!

    Are there any exchange currency store or banks that will exchange us dollers for Guatemalan currency?
