You can go to Lake Atitlan, San Agustin

really depend on how adventurous you are, expect long bus/van rides

take USD and there will be ATM's (major areas)
Planning 12 day trip and as you suggested, I will likely skip Guatemala City. Antigua, semuc champey, and atitlan are on my list at the moment but I am flexible. How much should I be bringing between two of us, in laid back backpacking style travelling?
