Flores Tours & Holidays

Flores is a small town located on Lake Péten Itzá within Péten, Guatemala's largest department of lowland jungle. The town has an airport, making it logistically the best entry and exit point to visit the world-famous ruins of Tikal. The town centres around a small peninsula that juts into the river made of narrow cobblestone streets and colourful buildings stacked close to one another. For a lively atmosphere, a stay on the 'island' may be considered with a few, charming boutique options available; here, a popular food market is also run every night. Otherwise there are a number of other quieter hotels, large enough for a pool, found dotted around the lake, a short drive from the Flores town centre and the airport.
