Guatemala Family Holidays

Culture and activity for the whole family

Take an unforgettable family adventure through Guatemala

Where ancient Mayan ruins, serene lakes, and exciting experiences come together to create the perfect cultural holiday. Though less travelled than its neighbour Mexico, Guatemala offers a unique mix of Mayan history, culture, and adventure, making it an ideal choice for families seeking a fun and educational destination.

Start your journey in the charming colonial town of Antigua, where cobblestone streets lead to bustling markets, historic churches, and beautifully preserved architecture. Dive into the local culture by visiting artisan chocolate workshops, sampling traditional Guatemalan food such as tamales, or toasting marshmallows over the lava-heated grounds of Pacaya Volcano.

Next, head to the stunning Lake Atitlán, with its spectacular volcano backdrop and traditional, colourful villages. At the Atitlán Nature Reserve, experience the thrill of ziplining through the treetops, taking in spectacular views of the landscape. The whole family will enjoy exploring the lakeside villages by boat, discovering local traditions still practiced today. Kayaking on the calm waters of the lake is a great way to relax while immersing yourself in the beauty of this magical setting.

Venture into the jungle to explore the awe-inspiring ruins of Tikal, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Enjoy a family walk among towering Mayan temples and intricate stone carvings while spotting wildlife like howler monkeys and tropical birds.

A family holiday to Guatemala is a journey through ancient culture, natural beauty, and thrilling activities. For those seeking beach relaxation, Guatemala can easily be combined with Belize to add the perfect coastal ending to your adventure.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!
