In reply to Lou Bender. Guatemala is definitely a beautiful country, with colourful culture, amazing hardworking welcoming people, an incredible gastronomy, I am French, studied in the United States but I am home in Guatemala where I married a Guatemalan and we are living 10 minutes away from Antigua with our 4 young kids !!! 😍 Loving every bit of it for the past 14 years !!!!!! Great recommendations !!!!

In reply to Marielle. Hey Marielle, We have been traveling for 3 years and some of the best meals we've eaten has been street food. It's safe to eat street food in Guatemala. We've been there 3 times and didn't get sick! But to be honest you can get food poisoning anywhere, even at a Michelin star restaurant! Marielle you will be fine if you eat street food, just use your judgement, if a vendor doesn't look "clean" then don't eat there. Eating Street food is part of the Guatemalan experience. It's a must. (Also check out our post on places to eat in Antigua)

Just came across your post and loved reading it. We will be going to Antigua next week.
I just wondered, buying food on the street: is that safe? I’ve heard so many stories from foreign countries where people got sick from buying street food, mostly because our digestive system can’t handle the water which is used to clean food.
Any thought on that?

All the best,
Marielle

In reply to Nina Travels. We love Antigua too! It holds a special place in our hearts, that is probably why we chose to visit Guatemala a second time!
