Should keep the crowds down while I'm out there for Semana Santa!It's ironic because when I first went to the region in the 80s it was the (short) chapter on El Salvador in Central America on a Shoestring that was most likely to deter potential visitors.
582,676 Salvadoreños came to Guatemala last year. That's 35 % of the total number of foreign visitors, in what was a record year for tourism.
