Amazing Tour - This tour was amazing I learned so much about the Mayan culture and got to see so much wild life. Our tour guide Marlon was nice, attentive and knowledgeable. I felt safe at all times and appreciated his passion for the Mayan culture.

A well organized and very interesting tour of Yaxha. - Very good day well organized. Pick up on time at the hotel and then lunch at a restaurant near the Yaxha site where we spent the afternoon learning a lot from our guide. And we ended that beautiful day with the sunset over the lagoon. We recommend this very professional provider with proactive communication.

Excellent sunset tour.. highly recommended - Excellent tour with Jose. We had lunch first at the Jaguar Inn before heading into the park. You really need a guide to make the most of your day there. Jose was so knowledgeable on the history and the wildlife of the park. Jose was great at pointing out and identifying lots of wildlife which we would have completely missed! There was only 7 of us so not a large group which makes a difference. If we had gone on our own the experience would have been so different. He got us to the last pyramid at sunset at exactly the right time to get ‘front row’ seats. And the sunset was amazing! It was lovely walking back in the dark through the jungle with fireflies buzzing around us. Would highly recommend going with Gem tours.. their communication via WhatsApp before the tour was also really easy.

Our guide Marlon was... - Our guide Marlon was FANTASTIC! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Tikal and showed us all the significant temples and explained the archeological process. He also was a wealth of knowledge on the local flora and fauna and helped us spot crocodiles, coatis, spider and howler monkeys, parrots, toucans, and many more bird species. What a great experience and we would highly recommend it! Sunset was breathtaking!

WONDERFUL TRIP TO TIKAL - Marlon is an excellent guide, with great knowledge of history, animals and history. They were very punctual, the food rich and transport in a new car very comfortable. I'd take a tour with them again. I recommend them

Not-to-be-missed if you have a chance - The trip was exceptional from start to finish. The biological beauty coupled with the Mayan ruins was breathtaking, mind-blowing, all those words. Roberto our guide and Cruz our driver could not have been more knowledgeable or friendly. A+ all around.

Lived Up to Its Name - Excellent tour! The driver and guide were both friendly and knowledgeable, and it felt like more of an insider's view than a typical tourist group. The guide was able to tailor the tour to our interests.

Fantastic experience - We had a great visit to Tikal and our experience was amazing. Jose Moreno our guide knew everything. We never felt rushed and went at our own pace. He was also good at pointing out wildlife. I highly recommend this tour.

Great experience - We had a great experience! The guide was knowledgeable, and the tour was involved without being overwhelming. I climbed several pyramids, while my wife and daughter waited below in most cases (the tour accommodated both options well). We loved being able to watch the sunset from the top of a pyramid and just listen to the jungle all around. We saw lots of different birds—toucans, bat falcons, golden orioles, and more. Two minor criticisms: First, nearly two hours for lunch right when we arrived and were excited to be there was way too long (though the lunch was very good). Second, it would have been nice to provide at least a couple of flashlights for the walk back after the sunset, as it got dark quickly. People used their phone lights, but the ground is uneven with lots of roots and steps, so it was slow going.
