Don't just see the sights--get to know the people.

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 is unique in Central America in that more than half its population is of indigenous origin. Today the country reflects a combination of its ancient Mayan heritage, Spanish colonialism, and modern Western influence.

Culture Smart! Guatemala introduces you to the complexities of Guatemalan society and shows how history has shaped the values and attitudes that you will encounter. It describes different aspects of Guatemalan life, from festivals and cuisine to socializing and doing business.

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 visit while being an informed and considerate guest

Have a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values, attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.
