In this Flores Petén travel guide and Guatemala vlog we will show you the country of eternal spring. We show you what to do, and things to do in Flores Guatemala. We hope this video gives you perspective and maybe changes your mind about Guatemala, in which you can decide if Guatemala is safe to visit. The island of Flores in Guatemala is a must-visit spot if you're making your way to this amazing country. We are now in the heart of the Maya World.
Most people use Flores, as just a jumping off point to explore Tikal. Flores is the capital of Petén . Peten which is the largest department in Guatemala. It was on this island that the Maya established NojPetén, their final stronghold in the face of the Spanish conquest. The town of Santa Elena is located on the shores of Lake Petén Itzá, and it is connected by a causeway to the island. San Benito is next to Santa Elena. We will try local food on the waterfront of the causeway, wander through the Santa Elena Market, and search for the best place in San Benito, to see the island of Flores from afar. Come with us, as we look for the hidden gems, of Flores.

What a lovely island!🏝 I hadn’t heard of this place before… so thanks for showing us around this hidden gem! I love that it is so compact and walkable yet colourful and interesting!
Yea, most people just use this area to fly into, but we are happy we actually explored. There are a lot of nice things to see. And yes, very walkable.

@@WITYTRAVELS 👍👍
I loved that you went off the beaten path!!! I loved the market (and the dog)!!!!
Thanks! We try to go off the beaten path as often as possible. Bunch of cute markets and dogs in Guate!
Quau quau esta muy pero muy impresionante el tikal de mi bella guatemala de echo mi guate esta bendecido por papa dios todo se ve calidad se mira como si fuera otro paiz pero no es mi guatelinda no nada tiene el nombre guatelinda de echo todo esta lindo las grandes maravillas que hizo papa dios esta calidad gracias por vicitarnos es casa de ustedes tambien exelente video gracias y bendiciones 🙏🙏🙏👧❤❤🇬🇹🇬🇹
Guatelinda el nombre perfecto para tu país. Nos ha sorprendido la naturaleza y la amabilidad aquí. Dios se lució cuando estaba haciendo Guatemala. ❤️ 🇬🇹 ❤️ 🇬🇹
I enjoyed this video, just a happy video. Thanks
Thank you Stu! We were very happy in Guatemala. We miss it a lot! ❤🇬🇹
Looks like a very quiet and peaceful place! I've never heard of a latte that doesn't come with coffee, I'm super curious how it would've tasted with the espresso added to it. A couple of beers and a sunset is always the perfect way to end a day of exploring in my book!
Very peaceful! But they also have bars and restaurants. Probably gets more going at night. Latte without coffee was a first for us too. We know Starbucks has a few frappacinos without coffee, but those are more dessert anyway. Not the original plan, but can't complain about (ice cold) beers and sunset! Thanks!
Latte in Italian literally means milk, maybe that explains it a little 🤷♂️😂
That was so cute when you asked about dumping the espresso shot in your bubbly cream soda drink.😂
😂 What are the rules?!
Nice guy's 😎👍🏻. Very beautiful area around the lake. Flores looks picturesque. Reminds me of Guatapé, Colombia 🇨🇴 in terms of the colorful facades. What a nice hotel and the courtyard.
Thanks Eddie! We'll definitely beed to visit Guatapé then. We really like our hotel. People should definitely visit Flores when in Guatemala.
Gracias por compartir un poco de nuestro Bello petén Flores Guatemala, siempre es un gusto servirles.
¡Gracias por mirar y dejar un comentario! ¡Realmente disfrutamos Petén! ❤️🇬🇹❤️🇬🇹
Choco Banana looks interesting..the market was huge and full of options..i really liked that plain looking black color back pack. Stunning sunset view from that sunset bar restaurant. Also . loved that boardwalk ..awesome content overall
Choco Banana was a good find! Delicious and low price. Yea, don't need to go around promoting other brands for free. We like it cause it looks cool and stylish. We weren't planning on visiting the sunset bar but we are glad we did. The views were great. Thank you so much Adi!
When I saw 32 degrees I screamed!!!! I wish it was 32 degrees 😫 lol. I can't believe how colourful the buildings are 🤩
It's warm lol. Yea, this place is so colorful!
This looks like a beautiful area, love the little coloured houses but those floods are a bit concerning. Looks like it has the potential to flood people's houses when it's really bad - hopefully I'm wrong though. That Chocolate banana covered in peanuts looks AMAZING!! That's breakfast sorted then!! I really enjoyed your walk through that covered market, place looks incredible and the prices were very reasonable. Ha yes that green and red one was a bit bright, perhaps you could use that if you're planning on some late night hiking - did it come with a spare battery? 😂. I think I would have just added the espresso shot but after hearing the drink tasted like a lime soda that may have been the wrong decision. Love the exploring at the end and how you found that sunset bar, shame the sun didn't come out to play but watching the clouds roll through whilst supping on a local beer is the next best thing!
We don't think the water floods into the house or businesses, but still concerning. It's funny, we also had a choco-banana in Antigua. But we got it at a pharmacy. They had the banana in the freezer and they dipped it in chocolate and toppings. It was such a random service for a pharmacy to offer! I would imagine that bright backpack comes with reflectors for your bike and road flares. Pretty sure the backpack is solar powered! 😂 We know at Starbucks there are frappes without coffee, but having lattes without coffee is a new find for us. But it was so good! Without the espresso at least. It's been great here during rainy season as everything is at its maximum "greenness". But has made finding an amazing sunset really tricky. We still enjoyed ourselves; and the beer was the most affordable we have found. Which is extra surprising because it was ice cold and with an incredible view. Thanks Matt!
@@WITYTRAVELS Glad you had a great time! Always helps when the beer is a good price!
It is a nice video of Flores island and the way you describe, it makes a huge difference. It is a beautiful place to visit , did you guys go to playa El remate? I am from Guatemala living in the US and appreciate you showing such beautiful places.
Thank you so much for your comment Jennifer! We really love Guate. We didn't make it to El Remate. We will have to go next time. Glad we could show you what's going on in your country. More videos to come! ❤️ 🇬🇹
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Bello flored
Thank you for sharing this great video. It is a gorgeous island and can't wait to visit again, there I tried the Ratatouille dish in one of the restaurants and it was yummy.
Thank you for your comment Sabi! Flores is beautiful. Ratatouille is so good, am not surprised they did a great job cooking it. ❤️ 🇬🇹
@@WITYTRAVELS Yes, great gastronomy!
Wauu chulo peten Guatemala yo peten
por qué?
Muy cerca de Santa Elena, como a 20 minutos caminando se encuentran las Grutas de Actun Kan, son muy bonitas, espero que hayan ido. El video les quedó "bien chilero" como decimos aquí para indicar que está muy bien o muy bueno. Saludos y si quieren referencias de lugares, les puedo ayudar, me escriben por Messenger.
¡Hola amigo! Gracias por todo tu apoyo.
Che guevara, if you didn’t know he spent part of his life in Guatemala. There is a bar across from the presidential palace where he used to hang out.
Wow! Thanks for this info.
I want to go here next year! thanks for the great video! I wish my Spanish was better!
Thanks for the comment! We really loved Guatemala. You should definitely go!
@@WITYTRAVELS my plan is to rent a car in Belize and drive to the Tikal pyramids and then a night or two in Flores and then back to Belize.
@@juicebirdmedia1406 sounds like a great plan! Have an amazing time!
We need footage of Will doing all the calisthenics at the free workout park🏋️♂️
Good call! Sorry to disappoint lol.
@@WITYTRAVELS just a note for any future opportunities!
is all the street food premade so no adjustments can be made on how much sugar/salt be used? which hotel is that you stayed in flores? i will be going in a month. did you guys fly from Guatemala City to flores or bus it?
Street food is served as they want to make it. The food we showed in the video was already made when we got there. We stayed at Hotel Del Patio. It was great. Had a pool, decent wifi, all things considered. We flew from Guatemala City. Would not recommend the bus. Thanks for the comment!
We are staying at a hotel here and going to tikal. How much can we expect to pay for an uber to tikal?
Hey! We jumped on a local bus which was affordable and easy. We talk about it in our Tikal video. 🐬
Which one is the name of hotel you guys stayed at?
We stayed at Hotel Del Patio- Tikal
CORRECCION: San Benito, es un Municipio de Peten, muy aparte de Flores que tambien es un Municipio y cabecera Departamental. no es correcto decir "San Benito Flores" sino que San Benito, Peten.
Entiendo. ¡Gracias!
@@WITYTRAVELS de nada, y me hubiese encantado saludarlos silos hubiese visto o me hubiese enterado de su estadia por mi tierra. vivo a 5 minutos de Flores, y exactamente a unas calles del muelle donde estuvieron en San Benito.
