Lurking the internet I found this funny story about a trip to the city of El Mirador, one of the most enigmatic sites in the world, here is the link to Into the Wild, and more in NatGeo's Beyond Apocalypto.
Guatemala has a rich variety of complex soils. Its amazing diversity of microclimates delivers coffee with very singular characteristics. We have selected the best and carefully cultivated Arabica beans from our fertile Highlands, harvested by skillful hands; it is blended among selected Guatemala's coffee regions and roasted very tenderly to deliver an exotic drink with complex flavors and an incomparable aroma. P11 will delight you by giving you an opportunity to recognize the subtleties of premium coffees coupled with an intense sensory experience.
I have made La Ruta Maya four times and many others short trips to ancient Maya sites, so I have been in almost 50 cities in the area of México, Guatemala, Belice, Honduras and El Salvador and let me tell you that is amazing what that people did!, so if you like dirt roads, jungle, warm and humid weather and don't look only for amenities like me, El Mirador has to be our next frontier.
