Using mobile data in Guatemala: local tips
- Save the PROATUR tourist line. PROATUR, the tourist assistance service, offers 24-hour help in English and Spanish: dial 1500 in Guatemala or +502 2290 2810. Police are on 110; fire and ambulance on 122 or 123.
- Book rides rather than hailing them. For short trips in towns, UK advice names radio-dispatched taxis, Uber where available and hotel taxis as the safest options.
- Check volcano updates before a hike. Before climbing a volcano, check the Guatemalan Meteorological Office (INSIVUMEH) and CONRED, the disaster agency, online for current access restrictions and recommendations.
- Keep your phone discreet on tourist routes. UK advice reports robberies on routes between Guatemala City, Antigua, Tikal and Lake Atitlán, and advises against displaying valuables such as mobile phones.
