Once the heartland of the Maya civilisation, Guatemala offers an abundance of history and intrigue. A true smorgasbord of cultures, ancient temples stand side by side with Spanish colonial churches and modern American influences. Its astonishing natural beauty is not to be missed either, boasting no end of luscious rainforests and paradise coastlines.
