WHAT TO EXPECT?

Experience a unique adventure with our private day tour to Tikal and Yaxhá from San Ignacio, Belize. This full-day excursion takes you to the heart of Guatemala to explore two of the most impressive Mayan cities: Tikal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its towering pyramids, and Yaxhá, a lesser-known treasure nestled amidst rainforest and tranquil lagoons.

Our exclusive private tour is designed for those seeking a comfortable, personalized, and worry-free experience. We begin with direct pickup from your hotel in San Ignacio, Belize, and provide assistance with the border crossing into Guatemala, making the process quick and safe. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle while our expert guide shares fascinating stories about the Mayan civilization.

During the tour, you'll explore Tikal's main attractions, such as the Temple of the Great Jaguar (Temple I), Temple II, the Central Plaza, and the Acropolis, while observing jungle wildlife, including howler monkeys, toucans, and coatis. Then, we'll continue to Yaxhá, an equally impressive Mayan site, where you can climb ancient pyramids, explore sacred plazas, and enjoy panoramic views of Yaxhá Lagoon, a perfect spot for photography and relaxation.
