Transfer to a nearby airport for a 1½ -hour flight by chartered aircraft to the vast northern region of Petén. After disembarking the aircraft enjoy a one-hour drive along a rain forest-lined road en route to the famed Mayan ruins of Tikal. Begin a 2½-mile guided hike along dirt roads and pathways leading back in time…
A mysterious realm unfolds as you enter the forest surrounding the ruins, and the Great Plaza will come into view. You will visit the Pyramid of the Great Jaguar, the Central Plaza, the Palace of the Masks and Pyramid IV.
Marvel at the size of the Central Acropolis and North Acropolis, and temples that tower above the tree-line. Lunch is served on the premises as you relax and reflect on the magnificent remnants of the Mayan culture. If time permits, you’ll stop at the Sylvanus Morley Museum before you retrace your journey back to the ship.
