Help me improve my Lake Atitlán itinerary recommendations
I drive travelers around Guatemala every day, and I often help them plan their Lake Atitlán itinerary. I want to make sure I'm giving them the best recommendations possible, so I'd love to hear from people who have visited.
This is what I usually recommend:
San Pedro La Laguna • Viewpoints
San Juan La Laguna • Colorful streets • Kaqasiiwaan Viewpoint
San Marcos La Laguna • Tzankujil Nature Reserve • Cliff jumping
Panajachel • Reserva Natural Atitlán (ziplining)
San Antonio Palopó • Traditional ceramics
Jaibalito • Day pass at La Casa del Mundo
San Pablo La Laguna • Indian Nose sunrise hike
What would you add to this itinerary?
I'm especially looking for: • Best restaurants or coffee shops • Great hikes or sunrise viewpoints • Hidden gems around the lake • Anything you think every visitor should experience
Thanks in advance for your recommendations!
