Guatemala Cruise Deals

Cruise ships visiting Guatemala come in to Puerto Quetzal on the Pacific coast. This stretch of coast has always been popular among families coming on holiday from Guatemala City, with its long stretches of unbroken sandy beaches. This is the land of the Maya. There are many ancient Mayan ruins to visit throughout Guatemala, in particular the great city of Tikal, whose pyramid temples and palaces are among the best preserved of all Mayan sites. Only an hour’s bus ride inland north of Puerto Quetzal brings you to La Antigua in Guatemala’s Central Highlands. The town is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, famous for its Spanish Baroque architecture and ruined colonial churches, which were destroyed by earthquakes in the 18th century. The landscape surrounding the town is dominated by three active volcanoes. More American cruises here
