It's always worth asking at the fire station. In [[Cobán]], the firefighters were reluctant to let [[User:Zenit|Zenit]] and Koen stay because their superiors had already left -- at 5.30pm. Camping is also fairly easy and safe once you're out of the cities.
== Personal Experiences ==
''I hitched on two different occasions in Guatemala. The first time I made it through the tourist belt, to Semuc Champey at Lanquin. The second time through I hitched with a trucker who brought me to the Salvadoran border, letting me sleep in the bunk the whole 9 hour nighttime ride. Just watch out for mudslides.'' - [[User:Chael777|Chael]]
 
''[[User:Zenit|Zenit]] seriously enjoyed hitchhiking in Guatemala. Waiting times were short, people were friendly, the country felt much safer than Mexico. In three or four days it only happened once or twice that somebody wanted money, and they were easily spotted right away.''
