Is Guatemala Family Friendly?

Yes. Guatemalans love children and have a very family-focused culture. In fact, traveling with kids can make it easier to start talking with locals, as they're likely to be less guarded around young children.

A family trip to Guatemala is educational and fun. While here, you'll experience Mayan culture and tropical rainforests firsthand. That kind of thing that can't be taught in the classroom.

Many Guatemalan hotels have accommodations fit for families, with multiple rooms and/or beds, and activities geared at the young and old alike.
