Tikal, Guatemala Explore Tikal. Abandoned more than 1,000 years ago and lost to the jungle until the 20th century, Tikal is now the crown jewel of ancient Maya cities. During it's heyday, Tikal had a large population of around 90,000 people and it's rulers dominated the region, regularly battling with nearby dynasties in the Caracol and Xunatunich (both in Belize) before mysteriously being abandoned around the late 800's CE. Today, Tikal is perhaps most famous for it's signature temples located in a grand central plaza. The tallest pyramid, dubbed Temple IV, rises more than 230 feet (70 meters) into the air. Built to celebrate the rain of Yik’in Chan Kawil, it is believed that this temple was built just one century before the entire city was abandoned. Several other pyramids are clustered around the grand central plaza, including the Temple of the Mask, the Temple of the Jaguar Priest, and the Temple of the Inscriptions. Other signature locations in central Tikal include the “Mundo Perdido” (Lost World) complex which has five different platforms, a large pyramid (known as the Great Pyramid for it's size), and an astronomical observatory. 300 minutes

Amazing day. It was a long day, but worth it. RJ took care of all the transfers, border crossing, guides, beginning to end—worry free. Mario was our guide through Tikal which was unbelievable. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and took great care of us. Would recommend to anyone.

My family recently took the full day tour from Hopkins to Tikal. Despite taking about 15 hours we had an amazing experience. Our guides, Rickie in Belize and Ronald in Guatemala, were very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional and told us many interesting facts throughout the day. Ronald was amazing at spotting all the wildlife in Guatemala, and without his expert eye we wouldn’t have seen so many spider monkeys, toucans, tarantulas, coatis, and even some jabiru storks!
Tikal is a truly unique site, set in the middle of the forest, and the memories of our trip will live with us forever. Thank you Rickie and Ronald for an unforgettable experience.
