FLIGHT INFORMATION
Book your flights to Guatemala City (GUA). Swell is about a 3 hour drive from the airport, depending on traffic. Staying in Antigua (45 mins from GUA) on the night of the 15th is a great idea if you have the time. It’s a lovely town, and breaks up the travel. We’ll arrange hotel pickup in the morning of the 16th to take you to El Paredon where Swell Guatemala is located.
Airport Transportation will be arranged based on when flights arrive, so you may have to wait for others to land. On the 23rd, the shuttle will leave Swell at 11:30am. We can arrange a private shuttle if you need one (approx $115 USD)
