Hey everyone,

I have searched the threads and on this and am unable to find definitive information as to whether the fine for a short overstay can be paid upon departure at the Airport in Guate or whether I need to deal with this issue beforehand at immigration in the City. Any recent reports or reliable info on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Dear all,

A question about traveling in the Mayan heartland.

I was looking at hotels and hostels in Xela on Trip Advisor and booking.com for Jan 9, 10, 11. Most of the highly reviewed places were either fully booked or close to fully booked. Do you think that is accurate? Should I book something for backup and then call for reservations when I am in the country? Usually I don't make reservations when I travel, is Guatemala different? Should I be making reservations for all the places we will visit?
Thanks.

Hello, guys,
I want to find a awesome place to celebrate the new year eve on Dec. 31st. Although I think San Pedro is a good place for party, I have been there and celebrated Christmas in San Pedro. Do you have other recommendations? I am a solo female tourist so safety is also an important consideration XD
Or do you recommend me to celebrate in Mexico City or Copan, Honduras?

Thx a lot!!!
