Itinerary

FLORES, PETEN

We will start this tour by picking you up at the lobby of your hotel on the Island of Flores or Santa Elena in Peten. Our professional tourist guide will be ready to take you to one of the most fascinating lake tours, viewpoints, and beaches in Peten. Our first stop is Lake Peten Itza until we arrive at a beautiful viewpoint. To get to El Rey Canek Viewpoint, we will need to take a quick boat ride from the Island of Flores. Get ready to learn about a Mayan civilization that lived in that area and appreciate the stunning landscapes that can be seen at the top of it.

EL REY CANEK VIEWPOINT

Once we get to the other side, we will start an easy 10-minute hike to get to the viewpoint of El Mirador del Rey Canek. You can see Flores Island, Lake Peten Itza, and even the Mundo Maya International Airport from it. Something that not many people know, is that the viewpoint is actually the top of a pyramid built by the ancient Mayan King called Canek. It is now covered in vegetation and used as a viewpoint. During your visit, we will also tell you about the kingdom of El Rey Canek and the stelae that have been found there recently. Viewing the landscapes from the highest point is breathtaking. Appreciate nature, the lake, the island, and relax.

CHECHENAL BEACH

Our next stop is the paradisiacal white-sand beach of El Chechenal. Enjoy the breeze, the weather, and the sunlight until we get there. The beach of El Chechenal is popular for its turquoise waters and white sand. It is an ecological place too, with different spots for great pictures. If you like swimming, this is the perfect time to refresh a bit under the beautiful sunlight. Much little fish lives here, so don´t ger surprise if you see them swimming next to you. Because the beach is surrounded by a lot of nature, you may hear the sound of some howler monkeys, it is a show! This is also a great stop to enjoy a delicious lunch while enjoying the lake´s views.

LAKE PETEN ITZA

After enjoying all day by the lake, we will take you back to your hotel by continuing with another boat ride to take you back to your hotel.
