- Coban was our first stop on a wide loop around Guatemala. I was thrilled to see Coban, a town nestled in the cloud forests of the Verapaz region of Guatemala. This region is known to be one of the few remaining habitats for Guatemala's elusive national bird: the rainbow-colored quetzal.

- In Part 2 of 7 of our month-long journey around Guatemala, we learn about food poisoning, car sickness, and the quirks of getting information from well-intentioned locals while exploring a coffee farm, a limestone waterfall heaven, and an ancient cave.

- A must-see! Step back into the past by living with local Mayans. Chicanab is about 1.5 hours out of Coban, Guatemala. You will see quetzals and howling monkeys and appreciate the serenity of a cloud forest.

- Who knew that a 3-day trip to Coban with our friends would become a 5-day glorious adventure? This region is rich in natural beauty, culture, and chipi chipi.
