The Chicago to Guatemala Travel group

Last year a friend and I took a group of co-workers to Guatemala. We had a great time showing our native country and exploring around. We climbed an 8,000 ft active volcano, visited Tikal (maya city), Antigua, and many other fun places.

Our goal is to recruit a group of adventurous travellers and show them why half of our hearts are in this central american country and do some walking, hiking, enjoy a day at a pacific black sanded beach and relax!

November 2008!!! Let me know if you are interested so we can set up a meeting and share pictures, and more details from previous trips.
