Exciting adventures in La Antigua beyond the beautiful beaches and resorts
Get ready to be seduced by the beguiling beauty of the former capital of Guatemala, La Antigua or simply Antigua. As a colonial of the then Spanish empire in the 16th century, the colonial-style Spanish architecture is evident all over the city. The looming volcanic hills also make quite fascinating impressions on tourists. It recovered from the devastation of a series of earthquakes in 1773, leading to migration and its eventual dethronement as the capital city. #adventures #antigua #guatemala #volcano #architecture

Go on volcano hike and take a thermal bath
Being close to an active volcano is a breathtaking experience. Pacaya Volcano first erupted about 23,000 years ago and has been active since 1961 when it blew its lid off after about a century of dormancy. Now peaking at the height of 8,373-feet, the volcano has since been erupting frequently, approximately once every six years. The last intense activity happened on March 2, 2014, leaving lava flow rock everywhere. And, don’t miss the chance to enjoy thermal pools, steam baths and spa services from warm natural springs generated by volcanic activities. #antigua #pacayo #volcano #hiking #bath

Learn the art of making coffee
The first growing of gourmet coffee in Antigua dates back to 1870. Journeying through the coffee plantation and watching the detailed explanation of the process, from growing to roasting as the aroma fills your senses is a slice of heaven. For a more engaging adventure, especially for lovers or the kids, you can enjoy horse rides across the coffee plantation avenue and the cobblestone street. The coffee tour often includes a visit to restaurants for a taste of the local dishes and caps the day up with cheeky beers in the evening. #coffee #antigua #guatemala #plantation #art
