Hey, thank you for watching and letting us know! Antigua has a special place in our hearts now and is one that’s in the running for “if we had to settle down, where would we go?”
We retire in 12-14 months and we have a dozen or so cities to visit before deciding where to put retirement roots down. 6 in Mexico, 2 including Antigua in Guatemala, 1 in Nicaragua, 1 in Colombia, 1 in Ecuador, and one in Peru. We are very optimistic about Antigua and cant wait to try all of the Vegan restaurants !
Wow so many options, it would be so hard to choose!! We haven't yet been to Colombia or Ecuador (heading there next week) but we were really impressed with Antigua. That would be our choice for sure!
@Belltown Daisy We’ll try….whatever a tourist visa will allow, but that’s the plan. We are actually moving to stop #1 on Feb 28th….heading to my wife’s home country. Matagalpa, Nicaragua. We will be there for a few years until our senior dogs are gone.
San Marcos, La laguna Atitlan is a nice secure holistic town . Rooms there are less per month than most places . Used to be many vegetarian vegan places there in San Marcos. Hotel and cafe La Paz in San Marcos excellent. Krishna's or Ganesha's cafe in Panajachel is vegan family . Hotel El Sol in Jucanja next to Panajachel is a surprise and good hospitality. They'll fix vegan for you. Most have saunas which is uncanny for Mayans to have a saunas (word play from Buddha time) ❤ Weave some at San Juan Atitlan. ❤ Have more fun, would love to be there!!!
Watching, how Antigua looks is nice, but to be there is absolutely wonderful. All in all i spent 9 months there. It is one of my TOP 5 places on earth, if not Nr. 1 !?!
Hey guys, good call on the cancelled dive....Darren works in the septic waste industry and he says you do not want to go in there! Seasons Greetings, stays safe
You think 3 days in Antigua and 2 on the lake atitlan is enough? Or 2 in Antigua and 3 on the lake ? We will be doing a day volcano in Antigua not overnight
We would definitely recommend staying as long as possible in Antigua! Also consider that it's quite a bit of a drive to get out to Atitlan, so you're going to lose half a day in each direction. 5 days definitely isn't enough, but if that's all you have, we would definitely stay longer in Antigua, especially if you're spending a whole day hiking the nearby volcano. Have fun!
Antigua wasn't on my list until I saw this video. Now I just have to go!!
You MUST put it on your list, you won't be disappointed! We loved loved loved Antigua and would go back in a heartbeat.
Bienvenidos a Guatemala
We loved Guatemala! It was our favorite country in Central America by far.
My Guatemala is beautiful 😍🥰🥰
Guatemala IS beautiful! We loved visiting everything that we did and already miss Antigua!
What a beautiful video. I was there right before Xmas, even though I go there every year, it never gets old. Saludos from NJ
