Guatemala City in June
Not the best time
Deep into rainy season now. The city takes on a different character - quieter, greener, but definitely wetter. Not ideal for first-time visitors.
Weather
June settles into full rainy season pattern with high humidity around 85% and regular afternoon storms. Temperatures moderate slightly due to cloud cover. Count on 18-20 rainy days, with some all-day drizzle mixed in.

All Months
November through April is your sweet spot – dry season means clear skies and those postcard views of the surrounding volcanoes. December and January are perfect: cool mornings, warm afternoons, and virtually no rain. But here's what locals know: the "rainy season" from May to October isn't the washout you'd expect. Most rain falls in late afternoon thunderstorms that clear quickly. The trade-off? Everything's greener, there are fewer tourists, and hotel prices drop by 30%. Just pack an umbrella and embrace it. Avoid September and October if you can – that's when the rains are heaviest and some mountain roads become impassable.
