Behind St. Catalina’s Arch in the city of Antigua is Volcán de Agua, an extinct stratovolcano defining the skyline. More than 12,000 feet tall, this volcano is popular among hikers, with chances to view neighboring, active Volcán de Fuego. © Sl Photography | Dreamstime.com
Tikal National Park is home to the ancient Mayan city of Tikal, as well as tropical forests, savannas and wetlands. A UNESCO World Heritage site, Tikal National Park was a vibrant center of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization as far back as the 4th century B.C.E. Ruins of many temples remain today. © Kobby Dagan | Dreamstime.com
On Nov. 1, many cities and towns across Guatemala celebrate All Saints Day with beautiful and massive kites flown over cemeteries and open fields following Day of the Dead.

Known as Sawdust carpets, these traditional carpets are crafted for Holy Week and other religious processions. These colorful carpets line the streets of cities like Antigua.

A 3,000-year-old tradition, weaving with backstrap looms has become a cultural icon in Guatemala. Intricate patterns are carefully created into items like tunics and skirts. Traditionally, women learn the craft at a young age, and later pass down the tradition to the next generation. Many cities and towns sell these handcrafted items. © Emily Wilson | Dreamstime.com

Jun 3, 2026Leopard Sands River Lodge Review
Getting to and from Leopard Sands River Lodge in Kruger National Park is half the fun, as it is a short, scenic drive from tiny Skukuza Airport (possibly one of the most attractive and mellow in existence) and main entrance of Kruger National Park, which turns 100 in 2026. Having evolved into a well-oiled machine since its December 2023 opening, it presents its first “wow” moment 30 minutes before even setting foot on the property. As baggage is brought in from the plane, drivers from the lodge set out a selection of beer; soft drinks; and locally produced dried fruit, nut mixes and biltong (the South African cousin to jerky). It’s a small sample of what’s to come.
