Experience the rich heritage of the ancient Mayan civilization, immerse yourself in its unique culture, and explore the lush jungles of the Mayan Biosphere Reserve. Daily excursions commence at 4:30 AM, 6:00 AM, 8:00 AM, and 10:00 AM.
The tour begins with a journey lasting approximately 45 minutes from our location towards the Tikal National Park's main entrance. Upon arrival, visitors purchase their entry tickets (not included), which cost Q. 150.00 per individual. Following the ticket purchase, we embark on an approximately 20-minute drive towards the Visitors Center, situated within the park boundaries.

Upon entering the park, the first significant site encountered is the central square, home to the iconic Temple of the Great Jaguar and Temple II Acropolis Norte. Subsequent exploration reveals other notable structures including the Number IV Temple or the Two-Phase Snake, both of which offer unique insights into the grandeur of ancient Mayan architecture and culture. These sites serve as pivotal landmarks within the broader context of the Mayan civilization, allowing visitors to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship and architectural innovations of this once-great society.

Spanish is an official language of several countries around the world, including Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, and many others. It is also widely spoken in various regions within these countries as well as by communities of speakers from other parts of the world. The origins of Spanish can be traced back to the Latin language, which was spoken during the Roman Empire. Over time, Spanish evolved into its current form through a process called Romanceization, influenced by neighboring languages such as French, Italian, Portuguese, and Catalan. Today, Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages globally, with approximately 500 million native speakers worldwide. This makes it the second-most-spoken language in terms of number of native speakers after Mandarin Chinese. In addition to being a primary language, Spanish has become increasingly important for international communication due to its role as the dominant language in certain industries, particularly in technology and finance. It is also used as a secondary language in some fields like medicine, law, and academia. Despite being the most widely spoken romance language, there are significant differences between Spanish dialects across different countries. These variations reflect historical influences and geographical factors, leading to distinct pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammatical structures. In conclusion, Spanish represents a rich linguistic heritage with deep roots in history and cultural significance. Its continued evolution and widespread use make it an essential part of global communication today.
