Lanquin being a very small and remote village mostly attracts it’s tourists by nearby Semuc Champey.
Don’t even have words to describe it, you have to see it to believe!
Long story short, took us 35min in a truck with babies, pigs, drunk guys and an old sick women to get there, all for the sake of saving 10Q. Was fun for the first 10min and once pig got loaded as well as five stacks of boxes strapped to the roof, sh** got real.
Mountains are extremely steep and I’m pretty sure the van was not equipped for carrying 30people in the boot. Guatever. The Pig reached it’s new home safely, baby got breastfed and not squashed by drunken guy, and we got dropped off at the National Park.
Entrance fee 50Q and boom, enjoy the view.
Small Print: In Lanquin we stayed at El Retiro. 50Q for dorm, or triple room for 150Q.
