Holidays in Guatemala

Getting there

Planes, trains, automobiles, or maybe even helicopter – we tell you the best way to go.

Planes
La Aurora International Airport near Guatemala City is the country’s largest, and is served by regular flights from airports in North and Central America, with two flights a day from Belize City. British Airways (www.ba.com) makes frequent trips from Heathrow to Guatemala City via Miami, or you can fly direct from Madrid with Iberia. Continental Airlines (www.continental.com) flies direct to Guatemala City from Houston regularly and to Flores twice a week. For travel between Guatemala City and Flores, visit www.taca.com.
Automobiles
Roads are patchy, petrol stations are scarce, and security is, unavoidably, a concern. Private transfers are the safest and easiest way to cross the country. However, seasoned explorers can pick up a car from Avis at Guatemala City airport, for around $20–$50 a day.
