    Antigua Guatemala's charm lies in its preserved colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, vibrant colors. & that is surrounded by volcanoes. Great Video!!

      looks nice!
      - high up in the clouds - not Arequipa, unlike.
      I think the lake towns set Guatemala apart!

      Not sure any of these photos do it justice, though I do not think the volcanoes have had any major (yet safe?) eruptions ... lately (probably a good thing).
      Misti volcano, Arequipa, Peru - appears to be summer (or wet season) maybe early January?
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arequipa#/media/File:Volcán_Misti_desde_Arequipa,_Perú,_2015-08-02,_DD_02.JPG
      -- The summit of the volcano lies on the margin of the outer crater and is 5,822 metres (19,101 ft) above sea level.

    Also, in Lake Atitlan, the small mountain below the volcanos (Cerro de Oro) was the inspiration for one of the drawings of the book “Le petit prince” by Antoine Saint-Exupery, with to me makes it cool 😎 🙈

    We visited We visited Antigua 15 years ago and there was literally Zero volcanic activity! We heard the history of how the then dormant volcano had collected a massive lake of water which broke through during an earthquake and destroyed the city, as you showed. But wow, to see this now an active volcano is freaky! Anyway, great ti see you guys in central america. If you make it to Combia please visit us in Jardin, also a historical city :)

    I will be going to Antigua in a few months with the volcano hike being the highlight of the trip. How cold was it up at base camp? Hoping you'll have the time to reply so i can prepare myself. Thanks

    • @ONWorldTravel

      Hey Liam! Ah you’re gonna have an awesome time! We went in June and base camp was probably 40 degrees F.
      Cold enough to need double layers at night and in the morning. But as we walked back down the volcano it heated up pretty quick and we stripped down. Lava trails had clothes and gear you could use/rent but some of it wasn’t the cleanest 😂 as a girl that gets cold often I had leggings + sweat pants, long sleeve + fleece jacket + outer layer jacket, gloves, hat, scarf. I’d ask the company you’re going with during that season how cold it’s been. 🤘🏽 cheers!

    Great video, just as a feedback, Guatemala is not Mexico, we have a great influenced of our neighbors, and very similar in many things, but we don’t have mariachis, the music you play in your videos has nothing to do with Guatemala. 🇬🇹 our music is marimba, and maybe you can just learn a little bit more about it, because that music does not represent our culture. It is a misconception thinking that ALL the Hispanic countries share the same music, please do not play rancheras, mariachis on a video where you are talking about Guatemala.
    And La Antigua was never a colony of Spain, it was a Virreinato, a Captaincy, totally different, another misconception, La Antigua had never been an colony of Spain. 😊

    Of course, typical stereotypical Americans think that all Latino countries play Mexican music. Guatemala has a completely different music score which is the marimba. So insulting( not because it's mexican music, but because Americans lump all Latino as mexicans).

    "We made it to Guatemala!"...cue the Mexican music... ugh bruh. "These hats are really famous here, you see a lot of people wearing them!"... No, they arent famous, No, no one is wearing them ;) ... its all made for you toursits or well tourists that actually shop. " We are going to be exploring different cities around the lake"... nope its towns not cities. Hahaha anyhoo, glad you enjoyed it though. Do your homework better next time.
