Escuintla is located 48 km south-west of Guatemala City, so Dhuhr in Escuintla comes roughly 1 minute later than in Guatemala City. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Escuintla.
