Templo del Gran Jaguar

This was an amazing experience. This archeological site's preservation is truly something to experience at least once in a lifetime. If you're visiting anywhere near this region you have to visit this site. This trip was taken in 2018

Easy to say that this is a life changing experience. Getting into the park the bus dropped us off in an area with guides waiting to offer us tours. We chose to go on a 4 hour guided tour and it was the perfect amount of time. Paved roads connect the different sites while the guide tells you extremely interesting facts about all the wild life, Flora and fauna and of course the Mayan temples and pyramids. On the larger pyramids that you're allowed to climb there are wooden staircases making it easier to scale. It isn't difficult, but it is a lot of walking. For example, an older woman on the heavier side was able to do do almost everything but had to choose not to climb some of the larger sites. She stayed with the guide and got extra info about the sites. Between the sites there are bathrooms and pavilions that offer drinks like juices, Gatorade, water and even beer. There are also a few different restaurants that you can get food from and that offer snacks that are easy to take with you. A few people in our group even arranged to have a meal waiting for them at the end of the tour. All of this without mentioning that standing amidst the ancient structures left me completely in awe. Would give 10 stars if possible.

This exceeded the beauty I was expecting to see. The people are nice and helpful. Don't bring fruit because the animals will go after you. It is a 2 day trip to see everything.

There is only one word that describes this temple, iconic. A fully restored funerary pyramid of king Jasaw Chan K'awil, it flanks the eastern side of the Great Plaza. Great views of the monument can be had from the Northern Acropolis as well as from Temple II, it can also be viewed from the east plaza and the palace. Its roof comb is visible from every major pyramid in the city as it rises to 154 feet, that's more than time and a half the height of El Castillo at Chichen Itza. Awesome.

A stunning Mayan complex. Utterly fascinating and definitely worth the visit while in Guatemala

General cost 150q . Camping 50q . Sunrise 120q sunset 120q . Nice place, I recomend camp in jaguar in with wifi, showers and electricity for 50q. Tikal is a big place to walk, bring water and food. Nice place. Enjoy

VIEWSSSS!!! I suggest take walking shoes, a hat, sunglasses, and LOTS OF SUNBLOCK. The sun is really strong and it can get real hot. They do have little shops in there just in case you forget. The guides are very knowledgable and will answer any question you have. People who visit Guatemala has to go to Tikal!

Impressive temple, very well rsstored. You feel small surrounded by these huge remains, in such a wild nature contexts. Makes you think about the temporality of anything we do and how the biggest citities and civilizations will be rubble and remains at some point.
