Caracol Maya Temple Tour

Overview

Deep inside the Chiquibul Forest Reserve, Caracol is an epic full-day adventure designed for travelers who want to venture far beyond the beaten path.

Reaching the peak rewards you with an incredible 360-degree view looking out over a sea of endless green rainforest stretching into Guatemala. It’s an unforgettable blend of scenic road trip, light hiking, wildlife watching, and towering views.

Camera or Smartphone: Fully permitted everywhere, perfect for capturing the summit view from the top of the temple Sun Protection & Bug Spray: Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and insect repellent for the open plazas and trails. Reusable Water Bottle & Snacks: Stay cool and hydrated during a full day of active exploration. Light, Breathable Clothing: Wear comfortable athletic clothes suited for a warm outdoor day.
