El Zotz tours/ Comunitario
6 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter enjoying a delicious breakfast, we will explore the archaeological site of El Zotz. El Zotz—located in the heart of Petén and neighboring Tikal National Park—was an important Maya center during the Classic period. Here, you’ll find pyramids, plazas, carved stelae, and examples of polychrome stucco decoration uncovered through recent excavations. The site’s hieroglyphic inscriptions have allowed archaeologists to reconstruct parts of its history and its political connections with other Maya cities in the region. Research is ongoing, and El Zotz continues to reveal new insights into the ancient Maya civilization. This archeological region is called "El Zotz" since it means "Bat" in many Mayan languages. The word Zotz can be seen in one of the emblem glyphs of the city.El Zotz tours/ Comunitario
5 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe tallest construction here is called "El Diablo" 45 m high (148 ft) where at the top you can see the jungle and some structures from Tikal. This construction is called that way because an ancient Mayan mask was found here and resembles the shape of a Devil. The box lunch will be served by the locals who offer traditional Guatemalan dishes made with organic ingredients produced in the nearby farms. We will walk in the jungle until we get El Yesal, our next campsite.
