    Hey Gabriel, I'm going to be in Guatemala next week. How did you travel to El Retiro in Lanquin? I'm flying into Belize City, staying on Caye Caulker for a few days and then heading over to Flores, down to Antigua, possibly to Copan in Honduras, and then back to Belize City. I'm thinking of stopping over El Retiro for maybe two nights. How does one get there from Guatemala City?

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos

      hey Stephen, I booked a shared minivan from my hotel in Flores. There are lots of them that go direct straight to Lanquin in a day, easy peezy. Have fun...

      Absolutely Juan. But what do you mean "Guatemala, CA"? Maybe Central America? (I'm from California and the abbreviation is CA, so I was a little confused.) Have a good one.

    • @Juan-uc8pz
      @Juan-uc8pz 7 років тому
