Climate in Guatemala varies according to the season, geography and altitude. In general, the best time to travel is November through April (the dry season). Along with summer holidays, however, it's also the busiest. The wet season (from May to October and until November/December in the north and the east) may restrict some activities and make some roads difficult. It can be worthwhile planning your trip for this time of year, particularly as you'll be more likely to pick up accommodation bargains and avoid the flock of tourists in the high season.
Weather
The Pacific coast swelters year-round, with temperatures often hovering around 38°C (100°F). Depending on the altitude, the highlands are pleasantly warm during the day but can be freezing at night. During the rainy season the mountain areas tend to be damp and chilly, but dry and warm during the dry season. The climate in the lowland jungles of El Peten varies only from hot and humid to sweltering and dry. In the rainy season, the mud can make roads and walking tracks very sticky.
