Follow on Google News | Kill A Chicken On Your Vacation?A new educational tourism business is launched in a Guatemalan village but this isn't business as usual. What makes this Mayan adventure tour operator different from traditional tour operators and why are people crowing about it?
Lake Atitlan is no stranger to tourism. People have been flocking to the shores of this famous Central American lake for decades. With three picturesque volcanoes and traditional Mayan villages painting the shoreline, it's no wonder why traditional tourism businesses have been operating here for years. So what's all the clucking about? Extreme Mayan Adventures is different from other tour operators in the area because it offers a total immersion cultural experience for travelers. According to their website, http://mayanadventuretravel.com/ A quick survey of their website shows that Extreme Mayan Adventures travelers are put into many unique scenarios. Besides learning a little Kaqchikel Mayan language and carrying things on their heads, Extreme Mayan Adventures participants learn how to do Mayan chores. They also get to meet a traditional Mayan shaman, learn how to forge for wild herbs, visit sacred caves, and go to an indigenous market. But do travelers actually get to kill their own chickens? You bet they do, but only if they want to. Now that's something to crow about, but don't tell the chickens!
