3-Day Jungle Trek to Tikal & El Zotz Assisted by a Maya Community
The Experience
Embark on a challenging and unforgettable 3-day jungle trek through the heart of the ancient Mayan world, guided by members of the local Maya community who know these lands better than anyone. As you hike roughly 20 km each day through lush jungle, you’ll explore remote archaeological sites like El Yesal, El Zotz, and Tikal—once-powerful kingdoms that shaped the history of Petén. Along the way, enjoy meals prepared with local ingredients and immerse yourself in the traditions, knowledge, and stories of the people who still call this region home. This experience is ideal for adventure seekers in excellent physical condition who want a deep, authentic, and immersive encounter with Mayan culture and nature.
