I did the Tikal Trek in 2009 and again in 2017 and was on top of temple four before sunrise and it was an absolutely amazing experience that still gives me goosebumps thinking about it. Hope more people can experience that beautiful experience. México has also beautiful Maya temples but hands down the Guatemala temples are beyond anything else in the Maya world.
We have seen many Mayan temples throughout Central America and Mexico and we agree that Tikal is hands down the most impressive!! especially with the sunrise experience, it was one of our favorite things we have done in the entire region.
I'm going to Guatemala in August. I'm also staying at The Jungle Lodge. What company did you use for the sunrise tour? Thanks and keep up the incredible adventures.
Hi, loved your video: informative and with a sense of humour! 👍 I’m doing pretty much the same 2 night trip in December and wonder if you can give me the benefit of your experience. Flights: I’m a princess too 😂 and I’ve booked TAG airlines tickets. Their baggage allowance seems stingy but can you just pay at the airport if your bag is too heavy? I’m guessing they accept regular sized suitcases judging by the size of yours. Hotel: did how did you arrange the bus from airport to Jungle Lodge hotel and back to the airport? Is it a scheduled service or did you have to book it? I can’t wait to go to Tikal. Bucket list trip for me. I’m doing 2.5 weeks in Mexico and Guatemala. Thanks.
The Tikal Jungle Lodge hotel offers you the transfer service from the airport to the hotel and vice versa. You can contact them on Instagram, or TAG also has complete packages from Guatemala City that include everything. You only have to pay the tickets at the bank that is at the airport in Flores, for which I advise you to pay in advance for the day, sunset and sunrise tickets.
@@derekbryce2632 Looks like David got the answers for you before we could! Yeah we booked through the hotel for everything with the sunrise tour as well as our pickup and drop off with the airport. Our suitcases generally run in the 45-50 pound (21-23kg) range and we've not had too many issues there. Some of the smaller planes will have an 18-20kg limit on them but we've yet to hit that.
@@VeganVoyagers yes it looks so breathtaking! I’m not gonna lie, I would be scared to walk in the dark like that. That being said, I would still love to do it one day. Adding it to my bucket list. 😉😬😱🙀😬
The heat is no joke down here.... BUT it's totally worth it for this amazing experience. We miss you both too!!!! Can't wait until we cross paths again.
It depends on your definition of cold. When we were there in November, it was around a high of low 30s (upper 80s/low 90s) during the day and a low of low 20s (upper 60s/low 70s).
Just wow 🤩

When those jungle sounds started up… wow 🥰
Right?! That was hands down the coolest part, just all of a sudden they all started howling.
The sound as the jungle woke up was so amazing and those views are unbelievable.
It was an unforgettable experience and one we think everyone should experience if they can!
Guatemala is wonderful
It really is! Tikal really was one of the most incredible places!
I just got back from Tikal amazing

@@VeganVoyagers thanks that’s really helpful!
How did you book you plane ticket from Guatemala City to Flores?
Wow! Loved this video soooo much.
Thank you!! Tikal is such a breathtaking place and to be able to experience it at sunrise, when the jungle is first waking up, is magical!

It’s not too bad. You have plenty of people with torches so you can see pretty well. We highly recommend it!
Awesome
Thanks for watching!
You know how I am about heat BUT some things may be worth suffering for ;) I miss y'all so damn much and look forward to meeting up again!

Hello...is it cool/cold weather?? In December?
It depends on your definition of cold. When we were there in November, it was around a high of low 30s (upper 80s/low 90s) during the day and a low of low 20s (upper 60s/low 70s).
Welcome to the Mayan Kingdom Tikal peten Guatemala the Eternity Spring
Thank you! It was quite lovely there!!
how far was the walk from the hotel to ruins?
Not too far, it’s hard to tell because it was dark and we stopped a few times but it didn’t take too long to get there
What your did u guys take to see the sunrise ?
It was booked through the hotel, but the sunrise tours are popular among all your companies in the area
