IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG

Most visitors to Antigua have an enjoyable, memorable, and safe time. However, it’s always good to know what to do if something goes wrong.

If you only remember one thing from this article let it be 1500. That’s the 24-hour hotline to the Guatemalan Tourist Office (INGUAT). Their service is completely free, and they speak English!

Importantly, they have a designated English-speaking person in Antigua who oversees emergency help 24 hours a day.

in Guatemala City (If you’ve got insurance) or if not to the National Hospital.

In the unlikely event of being robbed, then you will need to head to the Tourist Police. It’s important to have a police report made so you can make a claim on your insurance. Apparently, they have an English-speaking officer there every day between 8 AM till 8 PM.

After 8 PM, I would contact INGUAT for help coordinating with the Tourist Police. They can also assist with consular matters, especially emergency passports.
