Highlights
We will pick you up at the starting point from the Isle of Flores to transfer you in a comfortable air-conditioned transport, where you will meet other travelers passionate about adventure. Upon arrival at Yaxhá National Park, we will walk under the shadow of the rainforest as our certified expert guide reveals the history of this stunning Mayan city, its squares and its astronomical complexes. At the end of the afternoon, we will ascend together to the top of Temple 216 (the highest structure on the site) to witness a mystical moment: the sun setting on the horizon and tinging with golden and red tones the immense lagoon of Yaxhá and the jungle. The tour concludes with the descent, a night walk to the bus and transfer back to the Isle of Flowers. Book your place in this group and experience the perfect sunset!

About Flores
Flores is a small island town in Lake Petén Itzá in northern Guatemala, the main base for the Maya ruins of Tikal and the Petén rainforest.
Flores sits on a small island in Lake Petén Itzá, joined to the shore by a short causeway, with cobbled lanes circling a hilltop plaza and a cathedral. It stands on the site of Nojpetén, the last capital of the Itza Maya, which held out against the Spanish until 1697. The island is ringed with small hotels and lakeside restaurants, and boats cross to lakeshore villages.
Top-ranked sights in Flores: Yaxhá, Lake Peten Itza (Lago Petén Itzá), Bena Traditional Village.
