In the northeast region of Guatemala, the Petén Forest sprawls across a landscape of dense swamps and jungles, interlinked by a chain of lakes. Forty percent of this vast expanse is protected within the Maya Biosphere Reserve. The forest is a treasure trove of Maya archaeological sites, with the ruins of Tikal standing out as a major highlight. Visitors can explore the ancient structures and immerse themselves in the rich history and natural beauty of this unique environment.
