Take 1,000 years of Mayan influence and combine it with 300 years of Spanish rule and you’ve got today’s Guatemala. When your flight to Guatemala lands, you’ll be in a country is home to 13 million people (the most populous in Central America) and thanks to the hundreds of thousands of travelers booking flights to Guatemala every year, the country remains economically stable and full of variety.
In some remote Guatemala villages, and for many of Guatemala’s elder community, each day is based on the Maya Calendar. For those travelers booking flights to Guatemala with strong mathematical skills, and good knowledge of astronomy, put your watch away on the flight to Guatemala and try telling time the Mayan way.
The Guatemalan economy is still heavily dependent on its agriculture – sugar cane, coffee, bananas – and the crafts and textiles specific to the Mayas. Visitors booking flights to Guatemala will revel in the crafts, architecture, and brightly colored Maya textiles and fabrics. Bring along another suitcase on the flight to Guatemala…you’ll want to bring home a lot of this country’s history.
Book a flight to Guatemala to explore the hand-in-hand feeling of modernity and antiquity.
