Antigua

Antigua is a lovely little colonial town in the south of Guatemala that was once the capital. I arrived here after a 13 hour journey from Semuc.
Accommodation: Adra Hostel. Very pretty hostel with great facilities, very boring atmosphere.
My days here consisted of street food, wandering the town and watching the six nations final in the local Irish pub.
The main big activity here is the Acatenango Volcano hike. It's an overnight hike and by far the hardest thing I have ever done. The weather was absolutely horrific. We had rain and hail so strong it made Ireland seem tropical. Getting to see Fuego, the neighbouring volcano, erupt did make it worth the effort.Leggi altro
