LONDON (18 March) Guatemala has found its place in the spotlight. According to the Guatemalan Institute of Tourism (INGUAT), this Central American country welcomed more than three million international visitors in 2024 鈥� 15% more than the previous year, and an all-time high.鈥疘n this 36-page guide, sponsored by the Guatemalan Institute of Tourism and published with the April 2025 issue of National Geographic Traveller (UK), we look at some of the experiences that have been drawing travellers to the county in record numbers.聽聽

We take a deep dive into Lake Atitl谩n, where we meet the Maya artisans who live by the shores, and visit the Maya ruins at Tikal. We also discover the culinary scene in Livingston 鈥� a remote port town with a unique Caribbean-like culture 鈥� and round up some of the country鈥檚 best outdoor experiences, from swimming in natural pools to taking a boat down the so-called 鈥榮weet river鈥�.  

Angela Locatelli, editor of the Guatemala guide, says: 鈥淕uatemala is an incredibly diverse country. Its landscape shifts from Pacific coast to Caribbean Sea, from volcanic peaks to dense rainforest. It has millennia-old archaeological sites and modern-day Indigenous markets, recipes that have been passed down through generations and unexpected dishes influenced by its neighbours. An ever-increasing number of travellers are discovering the country and it鈥檚 easy to see why.鈥濃��
