Your excursion begins with a pickup from your hotel in Flores, followed by a bus journey to Tikal National Park, renowned for being the most significant Maya archaeological site in Guatemala, situated approximately an hour away.
Upon arrival at Tikal National Park, the significance of this historic site will instantly become evident. You'll find yourself enveloped in Maya culture as we make our way through this vast complex, which features over 3,000 structures that have been unearthed by archaeologists thus far.
Guided by an expert in Maya heritage, you will discover the intriguing history of this ancient Mesoamerican civilization. Central to Maya life was religion, clearly illustrated by the various temples we will visit, including the Temple of the Masks, the Temple of the Great Jaguar, the Temple of the Jaguar Priest, and the remarkable Temple IV, the tallest structure in Tikal.
While exploring the park, we will pause to enjoy a meal, featuring vegetable soup as the starter and a choice of chicken, beef, or pork as the main dish, served with rice or vegetables (vegetarian options are available).
