Food scene
This is our favorite breakfast restaurant in the entire City. Niels, the owner is a fantastic French baker and chef. It’s located in the heart of 4 Grados Norte, the most vibrating neighborhood in Guatemala City. Basically everything on the menu is delicious, you can’t go wrong!

Finca San Cayetano is an amazing coffee farm surrounded by Volcanoes. It has a great restaurant, and hotel and they offer many activities such as horseback riding, trail walking, bird watching and a coffee tour. The reason why you have to go though is because of the beautiful views of Volcán de Fuego, an active volcano that will surprise you with spectacles of rumbling smoke and fire!

City/town information
Antigua is a beautiful colonial City. Aside from the impressive ruins and the stone roads that remain from back when it was the Capital City around 300 years ago, the city is full of culture, local handicrafts, delicious traditional food and a super cool and chill vibe. You can walk your way around the entire city or ride in Tuk Tuk Taxies for very cheap. Plan to spend a whole day around this amazing town, ideally visit on a weekday as on weekends its usually much more crowded from all the national tourists that visit every week.

Getting Around
4 Grados Norte is a small neighborhood safe to walk around. You can also walk towards zona 10 and 14 using the bike lane that goes through Avenida Reforma and Avenida Las Americas. From 4 Grados Norte to the end of Avenida Las Americas there are about 3 and a half miles. For the resto of the city we recommend you use Uber, works really well.
