Hello, I've been to Guate several times but have never driven. I was wondering if anyone on here has any recommendations on driving from TX to the Lake Atitlan area (or really any part in Guate). What roads are best avoided? Where are good places to stop for the night? I'm hoping to drive down with a human companion but if no one else I'll have my teddy bear of a beast dog with me. Suggestions in terms of changing plates? I'll be there for at least a year and a half.
Any advice anyone can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Mon, August 10, 2009 - 5:09 PMYou won't be able to take your dog with you, ( quarantine restrictions for each country you pass through.) And a solo drive through pretty tough country, both terrain, and crime wise ! Hmmmm...... -

Tue, August 18, 2009 - 11:00 AMActually, unless things have changed because of the flu outbreak, there are no quarantine restrictions as long as I have the appropriate documentation from a licensed vet, which is pretty simple to get.
And in terms of driving through crime areas, that's why I'm asking around for the best route...
