Description:
Did you know that toucans have blue feet, that manatees have whiskered noses, or that some iguanas are called "Jesus Christ lizards" because they move so quickly that they seem to run across water? This book will help you explore Guatemala, "the land of many trees," one of the most ecologically diverse countries in the world. In a week's time, you can climb (one of 33!) volcanoes above the clouds or commune with howler monkeys in a cloud forest, bask on black-sand beaches or explore a limestone wonder. Guatemala's natural wonders are found among the surreal magic of the ruins of the ancient Maya and the current-day cities and villages of their ancestors. Thoughtfully presented with a useful chapter on conservation and responsible tourism, this is a guide packed with practical advice.
