Great tour (bring extra water, sunscreen, bug stuff, decline stops going to Tikal)

Scott_S, Nov 2022

This is a great way to make a quick trip from Belize to Tikal and back to Belize in one day. The tour operations is a well oiled machine and everything went smoothly. Due to heat and time limits at Tikal, while enroute do not accept the stop on the way for breakfast and minimize the (mandatory?) bathroom/driver rest stop. Our driver and tour guide had a coffee and some food at our bathroom stop. Only to arrive later and hot due to mid-day sun. Just note there is a hard time to leave Tikal, 3:00 pm due to how the tickets are set up. If you want to stay after 3:00 you must purchase another 'sunset' ticket. So, any delay starting Tikal tour will reduce your time to see all expansive complex. Also on the way back we did not have a restroom stop and the driver drove faster and less smoothly. Note all the tour guides and companies work together so we picked up two extra people to transport back to Belize. This incurred a 30+ minute delay leaving Tikal and a 15+ minute at the boarder, since they did not have a 'day pass' and were entering Belize from Guatemala for the first time. Also, bring extra water (3+ liters) or be prepared to purchase water. Tikal tour is awesome and do climb as many temples as possible the view is spectacular. We saw some spider monkeys and toucans. Included lunch was ok.

Ruins and wildlife … a world GEM

Between the Gran Plaza and the High Temple an entire clan (roughly 60) of Coati came through the jungle floor directly at us and swarmed around while they scavenged and foraged for food. Very special close encounter.

Ein "MUST HAVE SEEN" wenn sie in der Nähe sind

ju52rh, Feb 2023

Tikal gehört zu den wichtigsten Maya Sehenwürdigkeiten, nur durch Mexico übertroffen. Wer in der Nähe ist muß hin ( zb San Ignatio ) Grenze ist easy, und sie bekommen 3 weitere Stempel. Das Essen war gut arrangiert und schmackhaft. Negativ: Der Reiseleiter rennt 3,5 Stunden durch die Anlage, es ist sehr anstrengend, Rücksicht auf Älter, die nich so gut die Stufen gehen können gibt es nicht. Jeder Kaktus wird den US Besuchern erklärt, unwichtig und kostet Zeit
