Experience two exciting archaeological sites on one excursion!

Climb the tallest temple to get a view of your surroundings. Marvel at the Temple of the Owls and Temple of the Captives. At Kohunlich, named for the area's giant cahoon palm trees, you'll find a 21-acre site that was elaborately planned and engineered. Marvel at the complex of raised platforms, pyramids, citadels, courtyards and plazas all laid out to channel drainage into a system of cisterns and an enormous reservoir to collect rainwater. And explore the most famous structure, the 5th century Temple of Masks. This active tour with light snack also includes transportation to and from the pier through spectacular scenery.
