Yaxha Archaeological Focus Day Tour with Monkeys Spotting

Step into the ancient world of the Mayans with our Yaxha Monkeys & Mayan Wonders Day Tour, a perfect blend of archaeology, culture, and wildlife. After convenient pickup from your hotel or airport, embark on a guided exploration of Yaxha, an impressive site once bustling with life as a lake port between Lake Yaxha and Lake Sacnab.

Follow your expert bilingual guide along sacred causeways to the North Acropolis and Minor Astronomical Observatory, where you’ll learn how ancient Mayans marked solstices and equinoxes. As you explore the Grupo Malher and Cultural Triangle Yaxha-Nakum-Naranjo National Park, keep an eye out for the resident spider monkeys and howler monkeys swinging overhead.

Climb ancient pyramids for panoramic views over the jungle canopy, walk through ancient marketplaces like the Square of the Birds, and visit the Ball Court where the Mayans played Pok Ta Pok. By the end of this immersive experience, you’ll have walked in the footsteps of ancient royalty and observed incredible wildlife in one of Guatemala's most enchanting yet lesser-known archaeological parks.
