Its compact size, growing café scene and improved safety make it an excellent base for exploring the country’s beaches and highlands.

Semana Santa in Antigua Guatemala is one of Latin America’s most famous Holy Week celebrations, known for its elaborate religious processions and colourful alfombra carpets. Residents work through the night arranging sawdust, flowers and pine needles into intricate street designs, which are slowly carried over by processions of robed participants. The mix of incense, brass bands, fireworks and colonial architecture creates an intense, moving experience for both locals and visitors.

Antigua Guatemala is the country’s most iconic tourist city, a UNESCO-listed colonial gem surrounded by volcanoes. Travellers stroll cobblestone streets lined with pastel facades, ruined baroque churches and leafy courtyards that hide cafés, boutique hotels and artisan shops. The city’s lively restaurant scene, rooftop terraces and nearby hikes to viewpoints or coffee farms make it a perfect base for combining culture, food and soft adventure in the highlands.
