Executive summary

Guatemala promotes country abroad

Guatemalan embassies around the world promote the country as a tourism destination by hosting different culture activities and through partnerships with local travel retailers. Additionally, the Ministry of Tourism (Inguat) partnered Mexicana airlines to promote Guatemala on its flights and reimburses Mexican journalists who travel to the country. In order to become less dependent on arrivals from neighbouring countries, the government is undertaking promotional activities in the Caribbean.

Guatemala offers diverse travel options

In addition to offering adventure tourism, Guatemala is developing sports tourism by adding golf courses and hosting tournaments. Fishing has also become another popular reason to visit Guatemala. Visitors are also travelling to Guatemala to learn Spanish and stay with families to learn more about Guatemalan culture. Guatemala also offers interesting cultural destinations, like the Mayan pyramids.

Big business

With a central location in the Americas, Guatemala is taking advantage of its strategic location to develop business travel to the country. The government is renovating and expanding La Aurora airport and hotels, like Camino Real, Marriott and Sol Melía offer business facilities. Since 2005, the country has hosted the Assembly of the Inter-American Press Society and the Central America Travel Market and looks to host more large events.
