Guatemala is a land of volcanic landscapes, ancient Mayan civilization, and vibrant indigenous culture in the heart of Central America. Lake Atitlan, surrounded by three volcanoes and traditional Mayan villages, is often called the most beautiful lake in the world. The colonial city of Antigua and the jungle-shrouded ruins of Tikal make it one of the most rewarding destinations in Latin America.

💡

Electronic Immigration Form Required

All travelers must fill out an electronic immigration and customs declaration form before entering and exiting Guatemala. You will receive a QR code to present at the airport. Keep a printed or electronic copy. A 90-day stay is granted on arrival.

💡

Currency and Cash

The currency is the Guatemalan Quetzal (GTQ), roughly 7.50 GTQ per $1 USD. Carry cash in quetzales for markets, transport, and small shops. ATMs inside banks are the safest for withdrawals. Request small denomination notes as change is scarce in rural areas.

💡

Tourist Police Available

Guatemala offers the Tourist Assistance Program (ASISTUR) and tourist police (DISETUR) in popular areas like Antigua, Lake Atitlan, Tikal, and Quetzaltenango. They can assist with directions, safety concerns, and emergency situations.

💡

Airport Departure Tax

A departure tax of $30 USD (or equivalent in quetzales) must be paid when leaving Guatemala by air. Check if your airline includes this in the ticket price. Have cash ready if it is not included.

💡

Safety Precautions

Avoid Zone 18 in Guatemala City and the city of Villa Nueva due to high crime. Do not travel near unofficial border crossings. Use authorized transport, especially at night. The main tourist destinations (Antigua, Lake Atitlan, Tikal) are well-patrolled.

💡

Coffee Country

Guatemala produces world-class coffee. Visit a coffee finca near Antigua or in the highlands to see the bean-to-cup process. Buying directly from farms supports local communities and ensures the freshest product. Antigua is surrounded by prime coffee-growing regions.
