Family Expert Tips & Helpful Hints

• Arrive by 7:30 a.m. to avoid the hottest part of the day.
• Highlights to see: the Great Plaza, anchored by the Temple of the Jaguar and the Temple of the Masks; another top site is Temple IV, Tikal's tallest temple. But, don't try to see it all.
• You and your 'tweens and teens can climb the steep staircase alongside the 230-foot high structure.
