1.Tikal Sunset Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 234 reviews · 8 hours · from $25Our pick

Review of the $25 Tikal Sunset Tour from Flores, covering temples, wildlife, sunset views, transport, extra fees, and practical tips.

“Our guide Alberto the bird man was honestly one of the best guides we’ve had on a 6 week trip through Mexico. He was extremely knowledgeable and perfectly bilingual between Spanish and English which was great for our group. We didn’t have the best weather on our sunset tour and Alberto adapted the tour to make sure we didn’t miss out on sights and pictures despite the gloomy weather and lack of sunset. We later found out he’d already done a sunrise tour the same day yet he still had the energy and patience to give us a great experience after what must have been a very long day. Tikal…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 66 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $335Top rated

Review of Pacaya’s private sunset horseback tour with lava-cooked pizza, Mayan picnic, volcano views, pricing, tips, and practical details.

“So. Much. Fun! Dave, aka Alaska, was such a treat! He was so knowledgeable about the amazingness of Guatemala and had such great stories to tell about Nikki (the owner of the animal reserve the tour is done through). What their organization is doing is truly inspiring and warmed my heart to hear how well the animals are preserved and cared for. Their work transcends beyond helping tourists see the beauty of Antigua. They are truly changing the lives of so many animals and it’s inspiring. The tour was a blast! And to eat pizza and s’mores made with the lava coals from the volcano?! Come on! And the pizza…”

5.Tikal VIP Private Sunset Tour from Flores Guatemala

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 37 reviews · 7 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $187

Review of Tikal’s private sunset tour from Flores, with timing, guides, wildlife, price value, transport, lunch details, and practical tips.

“Elmer was an excellent tour guide from beginning to end. We did the private sunset tour - it was slightly more expensive than a similar group tour but included entry which helps you to skip the queue making it almost the same price. Elmer has so much knowledge to impart and really tailors the experience to your interests. He was very patient while we took thousands of pictures of birds and told us everything he knew about the local wildlife as well as the Tikal site. We learnt about the Mayan people throughout the ages up to today. He also gave us great recommendations for local restaurants and tours to…”

6.Tikal Sunset Experience: Archaeological Tour + Sunset Views

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 23 reviews · 7 hours · from $25

Review of Tikal Sunset Experience in Guatemala, with transport, expert guides, wildlife, sunset views, costs, timing, and practical booking tips.

“We booked the Tikal tour with Tikal Express specifically because it was advertised as a small group (max. 10 people) experience. We ended up in a group of 23 people, the complete opposite of what was promised. If you’re looking for a genuinely small and more personal tour, this was not it. The mismatch between what was advertised and what was delivered was disappointing.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 13 reviews · 7 hours · from $60

Review of Yaxha at sunset from Flores, including transport, guide, entrance, wildlife, temples, sunset views, price, and practical tips.

“Když jsem kupoval tuhle aktivitu , tak jsem se drobet bál, protože tu není moc recenzí. Ale vše proběhlo v pořádku. Jestli letíte do Flores kvůli Tikalu, tak rozhodne do programu doporučuji zařadit i tuhle aktivitu. Yaxha se mi neskutečně líbila, hlavně díky tomu, že nebyla přeplněna turisty , byla tak prázdná. Mohli jste si více užít zvuk zvířat , přítomný okamžik … doopravdy doporučuji.”
