I have an 8 hour layover in Guatemala! What can I do, see and eat in that time?
Hi Mefi! This Saturday I'll have an 8 hours layover in Guatemala City; my plane lands at 7am and I catch a flight at 4pm. I've never been to Guatemala and I understand the Aurora International airport is about 4 miles south of the city center. I'm completely open to anything as long as I can catch my flight. What are your recommendations for places to go, things to eat, local specialties to check out? I'm especially interested in food (and have a strong stomach, no fear!) and outdoor/flea markets. Open and eager for any and all suggestions!

Best answer: (shuttles to & from Antigua/the GC airport are incredibly frequent, and usually around $10 or so.)
