Flores - 10th to 13th November


We stayed for three nights on the shore of Lake Peten Itza, near Flores in northern Guatemala, in a really stunning hotel with amazing views over the lake and howler monkeys in the trees.


We had an incredible day at the ruins of Tikal, a huge Mayan city. Our guide Jesus was really interesting and managed to show us loads of wildlife as well. The site is deep in the rainforest and only a small proportion is excavated so it is all surrounded by the jungle with lots of monkeys everywhere.


The next day we headed on to Belize where we said goodbye to Julie and Paul. Now need to decide what to do in Belize.
