A valid passport is required for U.S. citizens traveling to Guatemala. As a requirement for entry, your passport must have at least one blank page for entry and exit stamps. Please check your passport expiration date. If any of these requirements are not currently being met, you must have your passport renewed.

An electronic travel authorization is required for U.S. citizens traveling to Guatemala. Travelers should submit their electronic immigration form at least two days prior to arrival. You can click here to access the application form. As entry requirements can change, please visit the State Department’s page for Guatemala for up to date information.

Nationals of all other countries should check travel requirements well in advance of their adventure.

Please schedule your flights to arrive in and depart from Guatemala City International Airport (GUA). Additional details will be included in your Welcome Email, which will be automatically sent after booking, as well as in the travel app you will receive shortly afterward.

Please note that transfers are only included on the first and last day of your adventure. However, The Travel Yogi is happy to assist with transfer arrangements and additional nights if you choose to arrive early for the adventure or extend your stay.

Speaking from experience, we always strongly recommend travel insurance.  This yoga adventure is a big investment of time, energy, imagination and funds and travel insurance is your safe guard in the event that an unforeseen situation arises.  

Absolutely! The food is delicious and, as often as possible, locally sourced. All dietary requests should be able to be accommodated provided that you notify us at least four weeks in advance. Please contact The Travel Yogi with any dietary questions.

Yes!  Wifi is readily available at all properties.

On this adventure, you will need to bring your own yoga mat with you. Classes will be designed without props in mind, but bring any props you need to be comfortable in your practice.

Electricity in Guatemala runs on the same 120V as the U.S. Guatemala also employs the same plug types, type A and B, as the U.S.  You will need an adaptor and converter if you come from a region other than North America.

Once you book your trip, you’ll receive access to our travel app where you’ll find our suggested packing list to help you get trip-ready. In general, we recommend bringing comfortable yoga clothes, casual wear, a swimsuit and sturdy walking shoes for excursions.

Wildlife sightings are always a highlight, but nature is wonderfully unpredictable—so while we hope to see plenty, Mother Nature ultimately calls the shots. Keeping your eyes open for coati, the colorful Quetzal (their national bird), spider monkeys, toucans, howler monkeys and, for the very lucky, a jaguar.  Guatemala is teeming with wildlife and is a birder’s paradise.

Yes!  Of course. Once you’re booked you’ll receive a Welcome Email with important logistical information and a link to your invoice. You can pay any amount at any time on the invoice; you can use it as a payment plan or leave it alone until the final due date. Remember that deposits are non-refundable so please purchase your travel insurance once you have deposited on this adventure.
