Guatemala: Disabled Needs

Guatemala will present a number of challenges for disabled people wishing to take a holiday there. Guatemala is a relatively poor country, which means that its infrastructure is not highly developed. Bus travel for disabled people in Guatemala would be difficult, because there are no wheelchair-adapted buses in the country. Many pavements in Guatemala, where they exist at all, are poorly maintained and there are no ramps at the entrance to buildings. You will also find relatively few lifts in hotels and other buildings with more than one storey in Guatemala.
