Culture Smart! Guatemala: The Essential Guide to Customs & Culture

A new edition of Culture Smart! Guatemala is available now!

The largest and most populous Central American country, Guatemala is a land of contrasts and contradictions. It offers great physical beauty alongside ancient Mayan ruins and a conglomeration of diverse peoples and cultures. It is also unique in Central America in that more than half its population is of Mayan Indian origin. Today the country reflects a combination of ancient Mayan heritage, Spanish colonialism, and modern Western influences, mainly from the United States.

This new and updated edition provides key insights into the minds and hearts of Guatemalans today and offers practical advice on how to make the most of your time while being a savvy and considerate guest.

Whether you’re travelling, working, or just curious about this fascinating country, Culture Smart! Guatemala is your key to understanding and appreciating its people and culture.
