Simply a great trip! Hotel pick-up and drop off went flawlessly; once we arrived in Flores, our mini bus was new, very comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. Sergio, our Guide, and Oscar, our driver, were both great, and Sergio was very knowledgeable about the area and Tikal. Lucy was a plus as well! Overall well worth the money and a must do tour for anyone interested Mayan culture and life.

Everything went commonly from the hotel pick up and drop off to the tour itself. Saw and climbed a lot of pyramids. They are safe to climb with wooden stairs. Be aware that there’s a lot of walking and the tour is both English and Spanish. Also, the lunch was very good at a hotel restaurant in the Tikal National Park.

This was my wife's & my second visit to Tikal. Our group this time was larger than before, but was very enjoyable do to how much our guides knew. This tour does include lunch on site of traditional Guatemalan cuisine which doesn't disappoint. We were able to climb the stairs of all the open temples that they had. This was different from 18 years ago when we were able to climb the stone steps themselves. However, this did make it easier to get to the top as the wooden stairs aren't as steep as the temple steps themselves. If you can swing the time and cost of this trip, it is well worth it.

There were only four of us in the tour. Our guide, Sergio, was excellent. He suggested getting a ride on the truck from the parking lot up to the ruins. This saved over a half our walk, each way. Take cash for driver tip. The ruins were magnificent and you wonder as you gaze at the landscape to the hills surrounded how many more are villages. We saw spider monkeys! Lunch was excellent. You spend quite a bit of time at the airports. Overall, I highly recommend. Remember sunscreen and bug spray.

This was a well-organized TripAdvisor tour. The visit to Tikal was amazing, everything was well organized: the trip by air, transport to and from hotel, the meal. Communication was timely. Our guide was well versed & knowledgeable. Pack your bags and make it happen!

This was a very well-organized way of exploring the magic of Tikal from Guatemala City. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

The guide's explanation was formidable, I was impressed by the times of its splendor of this Mayan culture, the pyramids, temples and structures similar to those of Teotihuacan, some of them are truly impressive, I am amazed by what I was able to observe today, climbing two of the pyramids and seeing the other pyramids from above, emerging from the undergrowth was very impressive, the jungle hides things and the discovery of Tikal is splendid. I am very grateful to have been able to achieve this #Challenge at 60's, climbing step after step sounds and looks easy, but... It is not!
