This is a must see if you're in Guatemala. We stayed in Flores and did the afternoon sunset tour. Transport from Flores was 120 GTQ, we left at 12pm. Tickets to the park were 250 GTQ as the sunset tour costs 100 GTQ extra (you're in the park later than official closing time). You also have to have a guide for the sunset tour. You will need GTQ cash to buy the entrance tickets, no cards or USD. Our hostel managed to get these for us in advance but we were the only ones - everyone else on the tour had to get off the bus at the entrance and buy the tickets (which seemed to be no hassle). Took about an hour and a half to get there and got back to Flores around 8.30pm. It rained a lot while we were there, but it was hot. I was glad to have trekking sandals (some of the paths had flowing water on them by the time we were leaving!) and light clothes. Picked up a plastic poncho there for 20 GTQ. Thought it might be busy for the sunset tour but it wasn't. I heard you might see more animals for the sunrise tour. Unfortunately it was too cloudy to see the sunset but I still thought the place was amazing.

The Lost World in Tikal is a captivating archaeological site that offers a glimpse into the mysteries of the ancient Mayan civilization. Nestled amidst the lush jungles of Guatemala, The Lost World showcases a remarkable collection of well-preserved structures and intricate carvings, transporting visitors to a bygone era of splendor and cultural richness. Exploring this hidden gem is a truly immersive experience, as you wander through the ancient plazas and climb the ancient pyramids, uncovering the secrets of a civilization lost in time. The tranquility and sense of discovery that permeate The Lost World make it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and adventurers seeking a deeper connection with the past.

As you enter the Lost World complex you first see the Talud-Tablero-style pyramid which is both imposing and a testament to Tikal's relations with Teotihuacan. What you don't realize is that its at least 400 years older than Temples 1,2,3 and 4. a little while later as you move through the former plaza, which is littered with semi-restored and unrestored structures, you will run into the Lost World Pyramid also known as the Great Pyramid. This pyramid is taller than El Castillo of Chichen Itza. It, like other pyramids, can be accessed via a wooden stairway. There is probably the best view of Temple 4 from the top.

Definitely must visit. And recommend the sunrise tour where you can experience the jungle “waking up” as the sun rises while you sit on top of the highest pyramid (it was quite foggy and this is apparently pretty common, but it was still worth it). The guides are knowledgeable and shared lots of info about the history of the site and the mayans who built it. These ancient world sites are fascinating.

These pictures were taken from the Great Pyramid at the Lost World. It is the best place for Sunset because you have a 360 degree view and the other temples look very close to you. To stay for the sunset, make suee you have paid the extra Q100 and have the corre t color bracelet. I also recommend that to enjoy best the sunset, Silence is the best way to wait for it.

Probably one of the most interesting sights of Central America. Maya pyramids. Be sure to have an appropriate guide. And luck. On the way home we were blocked by some people who decided tourists were to blame because they didn’t have running water. The restaurant is decent, beer is fresh. Be hydrated as you’ll sweat your brain out.
