Tikal, Guatemala

Nightlife Tour in Tikal

Tikal transforms after dark. The neighborhoods that feel familiar by day take on new energy, new sounds, and new possibilities — and the best way to discover the nightlife is on foot, moving between venues the way locals do.

The greatest Maya city, where immense pyramid temples rise above the jungle canopy and howler monkeys echo through ruins that once housed 90,000 people.

Top Nightlife Tour Spots

•Temple I (Temple of the Great Jaguar) — a 47-meter pyramid and burial monument for King Jasaw Chan K'awiil
•Temple IV — the tallest structure at 70 meters, offering views over the jungle canopy to other temple tops
•Great Plaza — the ceremonial center flanked by Temples I and II, with carved stelae recording royal history
