Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala
Guatemala is located in the northernmost part of Central America and is one of the largest countries in this region. It boasts 37 volcanoes, a rich Mayan heritage, Lake Atitlan and one of the best-preserved colonial cities in Antigua.
This charming port city on the Pacific coast of Guatemala is home to the beautiful, iridescent Quetzal bird, which was once sacred to the Mayan civilization that once ruled over this land.
In the second half of the 20th century, Guatemala experienced a 36-year guerrilla war. These issues are now in the past and today Guatemala is a thriving democracy with a developing tourism trade waiting to be fully discovered.
