Tikal National Park

Tikal National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a testament to the collaboration between the Guatemalan and Belizean Governments. Nestled in the Peten department of Guatemala, it is situated approximately 71 miles from the charming town of San Ignacio.

In pre-Columbian times, Tikal stood as the largest urban archaeological site of the Maya Civilization. The city’s earliest settlements date back to 900 BCE, reaching its pinnacle around 600 CE during the height of Mayan Civilization. Tikal’s population fluctuated, ranging from 9,000 to an astonishing 90,000 inhabitants.

Today, Tikal National Park continues to captivate visitors, offering the unique opportunity to explore and ascend many of the site’s towering Temples (Pyramids), some reaching heights of 65 meters, including the iconic Guatemala Jaguar Temple. For the movie enthusiasts, it’s thrilling to note that parts of the original 1977 Star Wars film were shot on location here, adding a layer of cinematic history to your visit.

Tikal Tour Review

"Tikal Overnight Tour Is a Must-Do Trip.
I took a Tikal overnight tour with four girlfriends in early November and loved it! Hugo was our guide and he was truly amazing - his knowledge of the area and it’s history is incredible. I cannot recommend Pacz Tours more, if you’re looking for a safe, informative, locally operated guide company."
