you have to drive about 15 km to a&nbsp;<strong>speed limit of 45 km\/h<\/strong>. Now here's the best part: to monitor your speed, a police officer at the first checkpoint writes down your license plate number and the hour and minute you leave, and then another officer at the end checks your arrival time\u2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The tour lasts 4 to 5 hours <\/strong>Walking at a brisk pace and hardly stopping\u2026 and that\u2019s just seeing the basics. I\u2019d say you\u2019ll walk more than 10 km if you want to see everything, and even though the paths are easy, it\u2019s not the best idea in the world to wear heels\u2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There are places within the complex where they serve <strong>water, snacks<\/strong> etc\u2026 You'll need them, since a significant part of your trip involves climbing up and down the pyramids and temples<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A lot of animals !<\/strong>: There are lots of animals you can see if you venture off the main trails, mainly monkeys and coatis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"22986\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/dsc00168\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1920\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325790297&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;122.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.004&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00168\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00168-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here we see a monkey carrying her baby on her back\u2026 Be very careful not to disturb, tease, or feed the monkeys, because not only is it prohibited, but it can also be dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2\">How to Visit Tikal: A Walk Through the National Park <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Welcome  to the cradle of Mayan civilization in Guatemala.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tikal began as a small farming village. Its first settlers established themselves in a highland area of the Pet\u00e9n, a hostile environment where the soil was arid and there were no nearby rivers. But Tikal gradually grew until a pivotal moment in its history occurred in the 4th century, when warriors and emissaries from the powerful Mexican metropolis of Teotihuac\u00e1n arrived in Tikal. They intervened in local politics, established a new dynasty, and introduced military and architectural advancements that propelled the city\u2019s power to new heights (it grew to have as many as 100,000 inhabitants\u2014an astronomical number for its time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let's start with the tour\u2026 How do you visit Tikal?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"23619\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/2025\/02\/01\/como-visitar-tikal\/mapa-de-tikal\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?fit=1224%2C1285&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1224,1285\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-title=\"mapa de Tikal\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?fit=975%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?resize=975%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23619\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?resize=975%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 975w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?resize=286%2C300&amp;ssl=1 286w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?resize=768%2C806&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?resize=11%2C12&amp;ssl=1 11w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mapa-de-Tikal.png?w=1224&amp;ssl=1 1224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 975px) 100vw, 975px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The complex of buildings you encounter almost as soon as you arrive is the Gran Plaza (labeled \u201cPlaza Mayor\u201d on the map above), strategically designed to impress and to host public rituals and assemblies of the Maya elite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"22983\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/dsc00146\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1920\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325783359&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.8&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0005&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00146\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"como visitar Tikal - la Gran Plaza\" class=\"wp-image-22983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00146-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where, for example, the enthronement of the new kings was celebrated: The heir would walk, surrounded by music and the smoke of copal, toward the North Acropolis, where he would receive the royal regalia (such as the quetzal-feather headdress);

It\u2019s pretty steep, and apparently a tourist died trying to climb it, so they\u2019ve banned it\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"23622\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/2025\/02\/01\/como-visitar-tikal\/dsc00138\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?fit=1378%2C1837&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1378,1837\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325782163&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.8&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.000625&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00138\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?resize=9%2C12&amp;ssl=1 9w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00138.jpg?w=1378&amp;ssl=1 1378w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, I didn't climb up there; the photo was taken from a nearby temple. The great thing about Tikal is that, aside from a few protected structures, you can climb wherever you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name \u201cGreat Jaguar\u201d comes from a carved wooden lintel above the entrance, which depicts the monarch protected by a huge jaguar. Don\u2019t waste your time looking for it with binoculars like I did\u2014apparently, it\u2019s in a museum in Switzerland or something like that\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across from it (which you can actually climb) is the Temple of the Masks, offering great views of the plaza. Since the two temples face each other, during the equinoxes the sun rises exactly behind the Great Jaguar (and the king) and illuminates the facade of the Temple of the Masks. It was commissioned by the Great Jaguar monarch himself around 700 A.D. to honor his wife, Queen Lajchan Mo\u2019 (also known as Lady Twelve Macaw). The king wanted to elevate the status of his consort, who came from a key allied dynasty that helped defeat his rivals from Calakmul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The building's common name comes from the decorative motifs on its central staircase. On either side of the stairs leading to the top, the Maya carved two gigantic limestone masks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"23623\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/2025\/02\/01\/como-visitar-tikal\/dsc00143\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?fit=1378%2C1837&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1378,1837\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.2&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325782578&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;6.35&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00143\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?fit=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?resize=9%2C12&amp;ssl=1 9w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DSC00143.jpg?w=1378&amp;ssl=1 1378w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These effigies depict faces with stylized features of the rain god, Chaac, or of earth monsters, designed to remind those ascending that they were leaving the earthly world to enter the divine realm.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond all the history lessons, the great thing about this place is that you can always find a little empty spot to take a great photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"22981\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/dsc00134\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1920\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325782018&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.8&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.004&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00134\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22981\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00134-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The views from the towering Temple IV are magnificent; the first photo in this post was taken from up there.

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How can you visit Tikal from Flores? The vast majority of people book a private tour with\u2026 but if you\u2019re an adventurer like me, you can get there on your own in several ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">++ I stopped by the Santa Elena bus station to ask. Here, at the back of the station, a public minibus leaves at 9:00 a.m. that takes you there for 100 Q and picks you up again at 3:00 p.m. It was a sort of \u201cofficial tourist\u201d minibus, and everything seemed very well organized (though I can\u2019t say for sure because I didn\u2019t take it).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">++ If you want a flexible schedule, there are minibuses scattered around that go directly from Santa Elena to the second checkpoint at Tikal (inside the ruins). Unfortunately, it\u2019s impossible to find out their schedule because everyone I asked told me something different\u2026<br>\u2026so the adventurous option is to take one of the (now, indeed) numerous minibuses that take you to the village closest to the first checkpoint (where you buy your ticket), called El Caoba. Once there, you can either wait for one of the minibuses that cover the remaining 15 km to the second checkpoint or hitchhike like I did\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The return trip is a bit more difficult for the reason mentioned above: you don\u2019t know the schedule for the public minibuses. I ran into one of the drivers by chance, and he told me that one of the last ones left at 4:30 p.m. The best option is to be bold and convince (with a tip) one of the private minibus drivers to make room for you and drop you off\u2026 It took me 5\u20136 tries, but in the end, a very kind man not only dropped me off but also charged me a fair price!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5\">From El Remate <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"22979\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/dsc00124\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1920\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.2&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DSC-HX200V&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1325725593&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;7.14&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.01&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC00124\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"como visitar Tikal - El Remate\" class=\"wp-image-22979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/DSC00124-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, how do you visit Tikal from El Remate? A much better option than leaving from Flores or Santa Elena is to set out from this charming little town next to Lake Pet\u00e9n called El Remate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don't expect any luxury here: it's really just a string of houses, small family-run hotels, and restaurants built along the road that runs between Flores and Tikal (which, on the map, would be to the north, already outside the frame).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The advantage is that you're much closer to Tikal than you would be from Flores, so you save an hour of travel time (the trip from Flores to here) and, most importantly, you can arrive at Tikal much earlier than the organized tours and have the park all to yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plus, in the afternoon, you can treat yourself to a breathtaking view of the lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a
