La Lancha

A varied and relaxing itinerary through Guatemala and Belize that is ideal for families looking for a dash of adventure, offering soaring jungle temples, colourful market towns, plentiful wildlife and the powdery white sand beaches of Belize's Caribbean.

Set in the jungle overlooking Quexil Lagoon and near the great Mayan city of Tikal, Las Lagunas is a comfortable boutique lodge with just 19 suites. The lodge has a private reserve where wildlife, especially birds and monkeys, may be observed.

As the name suggests, Jungle Lodge is hidden within lush, tropical vegetation, but its close proximity to the Mayan site of Tikal is what makes this property particularly exciting; just half a mile from Tikal's central plaza you couldn't get much closer.

This full day tour will take you to explore the wonderful Mayan sites of Topoxte and Yaxha, accompanied by a private guide. As well as the pyramid temples of Yaxha and the island site of Topoxte, there is plenty of wildlife to observe.

Experience one of the Maya world's most impressive and evocative temple complexes, Tikal, and feel like a true Indiana Jones. Tikal is arguably the greatest of all Mayan cities. Enjoy a fascinating private guided tour with your very own archaeology guide.
