    Climbed a lot of pyramids, and saw a bunch of birds, monkeys, and other wildlife! The ruins are beautiful (especially yaxha) and the tour guides for both tours were super enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the ruins, and gave us a detailed history debrief. They also gave us space to explore on our own so we weren’t attached to the group the entire time. I met a lot of other solo travelers in my group which was nice. The only thing is, the Tikal and Yaxha tours are booked with two different companies, and I was the only one in my Tikal group who was also doing Yaxha same day, so they dropped me off alone at a random bus station in el remate with no details about when the next shuttle was coming. It was extremely chaotic until I finally got a hold of someone on whatsapp who lmk that the next shuttle was coming over an hour later. The communication could definitely be improved, but overall I still had a great time.

  • Bad Timing and No Sunset or Sunrise

    Aaron A,,Jan 11, 2026

    This is a sunrise and sunset tour and I didn’t really get to see either one of them. First, the sunrise wasn’t visible (not the tour company’s fault and don’t blame them of course), but even if there was a visible sunrise we arrived too late to find any good seats. I wouldn’t have been able to see it because I was sitting on the ground behind a bunch of people. We should have arrived sooner rather than looking for tarantulas or the driver getting coffee and snacks while we waited. There was no urgency to get us to the sunrise location. Second, we had to leave the sunset site before the sunset was at its peak. The timing needs to be better in my opinion. Overall, this is a very long day and that’s marked clearly so just be aware that you will be exhausted at the end and if you decide to book, I hope you get to see a sunrise or sunset or both.

    Contact was good at first but day before less than 12 hours before and then no response after that left us confused on where to meet (we just went to yo Amo Peten sign. But guide Loyd was great: knowledgeable and invited questions. I loved my experience. Including holding the tarantula! Also advisable to bring flashlights for the dark walk to Temple IV for sunrise.

  • Excellent but very tired

    It's an entire day to see two archaeological sites! Very complete! The dawn in the forest in Tikal is an excellent experience even if you do not see the sunrise we have the noises of animals, flying tucans, monkeys waking up! The sunset in Iaxha is fantastic. But there's one other way, it's very tired because you leave Flores at 3:00 a.m. and you return at 19:30.

    It was spectacular, our guide Luis in Tikal is the best!!!, the sunrise experience, the tour, hearing the animals wake up with the best description by Luis was incredible. Highly recommended. Doing both tours in 1 day can be tired, especially if you have already been traveling for several days, however I found it ideal if you do not have so much time.

    It is possible that due to climatic conditions (rain or presence of haze) the sunrise can be observed, however, it is still a unique experience to hear and see the awakening of the jungle.

  • A great way to combine Tikal and Yaxha on the same day

    Tom R,,Sep 21, 2025

    - Review from Viator

    5.00

    One of the best ways to discover Tikal and Yaxha on the same day without too much haste. The guides were English-speaking and very friendly with interesting explanations. Transportation was secure (van and minibus). The wait at 12 am is a bit long between Tikal and Yaxha in El Remate but the restaurant where to sit is good and cheap. We recommend!
