Antigua is a small town. Very nice, good backpacker scene and definitely worth a visit, but it’s small. Spend some time at lake atitlan while you’re there. It’s maybe an hour or two bus ride away and one of the more beautiful places in central America.

Harald Baldr for me. I think he does the best job of showing a true account of what it’s like somewhere without being overly sensationalist. His longer videos and mostly unedited style aren’t for everyone but I generally find him to be the best one.

Most people will suggest poblado or Laureles. If you want something a bit different but still safe, and a bit more affordable, check out envigado. Can connect to the city by an easy metro rail and it’s a city with plenty to do in it’s own right.
