Hola Guatemala
Connection to Purpose Retreat
March 7 - 15, 2025
What is in Guatemala?
Guatemala creates the perfect balance between immersing yourself in rich cultural traditions and exploring the stunning natural beauty of Central America. Get ready to wander through the cobbled streets of Antigua, a UNESCO World Heritage city, and discover its colorful colonial architecture, vibrant markets, and deeply-rooted history. Venture into the surrounding highlands to explore active volcanoes, lush coffee plantations, and the serene Lake Atitlán. Along the way, engage with local Maya communities to experience their timeless traditions and craftsmanship.
Who is this for?
Soulful Seekers: If you're yearning for deeper connection, purpose, and a life-changing experience, immerse yourself in the spiritual richness of Guatemala. This journey will transform your perspective and bring you closer to yourself through the ancient wisdom and healing traditions.
Spiritual Seekers: If you’re yearning for a deeper connection, Lake Atitlán offers a transformative experience with a locally led cacao ceremony. This ancient ritual that promotes healing and introspection, set against the stunning backdrop of the lake and volcanoes.

“Wow, where do I start? The World Within Us never disappoints. Going on these incredible, specially curated trips are experiences I will truly cherish forever! So far, I’ve been to Fiji and Guatemala with TWWU (with more planned in the future). Each itinerary is intentionally built with love and logic, fulfilling your best travel dreams, immersing you into the culture of your destination(s) while also always giving back to the communities you’re visiting! It’s NOT about just going on “vacation”.

Testimonials from our past travelers:
“Every single World Within Us trip I've been on has far exceeded all my (very high) expectations. I've made such incredible memories and life-long friendships during these experiences and already have 2 trips booked for next year!.”
Jordyn Cotton (Chicago, 28 years old)
“My traveling experience with The World Within Us is unmatched. I have done 4 trips and, each time, I’m in awe at the balance of the itinerary. Combine that with the fact that I just pack and show up and I don’t have to plan a thing and I’m in heaven!! I definitely identify as someone who finds it hard to plan out a trip on my own and TWWU makes it so easy.”
