About this activity

Tikal is an impressive Mayan city with centuries of existence. Seeing this site at dawn is a complete show, walking through the jungle when it is still dark, listening to the awakening of its animals, including spider monkeys, howler monkeys, toucans, parakeets, among others, is something that has no comparison. Visiting this archaeological site first thing in the morning will allow you to take incredible photos without people interrupting, have breakfast on top of Temple IV and start your day in the best way.

This is the perfect opportunity to visit Tikal, officially discovered in 1848, although it is believed to date from 200 to 850 AD. The discovery of Tikal was made by the governor of Petén at that time + 12 people who accompanied him, although the existence of this archaeological site was known to native people.

Live the experience of walking through the jungle, knowing the history of its governors, and the vast Mayan territory that they controlled.
