Tikal is one of the most beautiful places to go to. One day is not enough to see everything in this place.You can hear the spider monkeys and jaguars fight as your walking through the jungle its scary but exciting. Flores is so nice, one other place to go is Antigua its my favorite place of all. Yeah its hot but the best time to go to Guatemala is April- May. Love it and am planing my next trip with my family. Cynthia Whittier.
This is living history, as you see what has been unearthed and realize there are still mounds of earth that still have ruins beneath them not fully uncovered. Its truly a jungle atmosphere as monkeys swing from trees and reptiles are around. For me waking up and falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle was the most beautiful sound. Tikal is a masterpeice of history and beauty.
The scenery is absolutely amazing. My only complaint was the 90+ temps with 100% humidity. I recommend getting a guide and trying to go on a partly cloudy day.

Guatemala as a country is beautiful and has so much culture you don't know what to do with yourself, but to go where ancient mayan people lived and roamed is amazing. The grounds are so well preserved and you can just imagine what it was like to be one of those people who lived there many centuries ago. There is so much to see. Not only are ...

you are not going to believe it when see it, it is the most amazing Mayan city in the world, awesome like the Egypt Pyramids, and you are going to travel through the rain forest jungle, where you can see all kind of Savage animals, you will never regret to be there
