About Flores
Flores is a small island town on Lake Petén Itzá—a charming base for visiting Tikal. The town's red-tiled roofs and colonial buildings sit on a peninsula creating an intimate, European feel. The lake offers boat touring, while Tikal lies just 45 kilometers away. Flores serves as the gateway to Guatemala's Petén region and its Mayan sites.
