TIKAL Mayan Splendor

The national park (UNESCO World Heritage Site) of Tikal is a protected area about 576 square kilometers, on the edge of the large “Reservade la Biósfera Maya”. Dating back to around 400 BC, Tikal was a powerhouse during the classic Mayan period, then gradually succumbed to a ruinous state in the midst of the jungle, until it was unearthed and excavated in the 20th century. Anyone who takes any of our Tikal Tours to visit classic the Mayan ruins of Tikal will be impressed. Rising out of the dense jungle, the looming temples demonstrate the mighty
civilization of the ancient Mayans. 

Animal species that can be found include the howler and spider monkeys and toucans and parakeets. Exploring Tikal will help you discover the Mayan spiritual and universe vision. The overwhelming harmony hides one of the most important and majestic cities from Mayan Time.

Your tour guide is with you the whole way to fill you in on the history of the area and answer questions. The guide will also cover the bio-diversity of Tikal. You’ll hear the howler monkeys echoing off the temples and the spider monkeys swinging tree to tree. Tikal is host to toucans, coatimundi and a million other creatures great and small. Ruins will rise before you as they did in the days of antiquity like a stairway to heaven, as you follow in the footsteps of the ancients.
