De aanpak van Tripadvisor met betrekking tot beoordelingen
Voordat Tripadvisor-beoordelingen geplaatst worden, gaan ze door een geautomatiseerd trackingsysteem dat informatie verzamelt en de volgende vragen beantwoordt: hoe, wat, waar en wanneer. Als het systeem iets detecteert dat potentieel in tegenspraak is met onze communityrichtlijnen, dan wordt de beoordeling niet gepubliceerd.
Wanneer het systeem een probleem detecteert, wordt een beoordeling mogelijk automatisch afgekeurd, naar de junior bijdrager gestuurd voor goedkeuring, of handmatig beoordeeld door ons team van contentspecialisten die 24/7 aan de kwaliteit van de beoordelingen op onze website werken.
Ons team controleert elke beoordeling die op onze website geplaatst wordt en volgens onze bezoekers niet aan onze communityrichtlijnen voldoet.

Iximche is a unique post classic Maya site. We learned a lot here and it was really worthwhile. We booked a day tour from Antigua, and it's easily done as a not-too-long day tour. The setting itself is very beautiful and parklike. Several Guatemalan families were there just to enjoy it as a park -- playing games, having a picnic, etc. Our tour included a guide, and he did a nice job of explaining what made the site special. It was a little different from other Maya ruins that I have visited, and I appreciated that difference, but you still get to see the usual ruined temples and ball courts. During our visit, we saw several local people making their traditional offerings -- t wasn't just put on as a show for us as tourists, as they were doing it before we arrived and we hadn't pre-paid for any such thing (some tours do offer seeing an offering ceremony for an additional fee). Anyway, it was a great tour from Antigua and you'll learn something about the Maya at the time of the Spanish conquest.

Es un lugar bastante amplio, unas ruinas y un pequeño museo sobre el asentamiento maya que habitó en esa región. Aún hoy en día se puede observar chamanes mayas haciendo sus rituales en las ruinas de Iximché (quema de incienso, fumando puros, ofreciendo flores u otras cosas, etc). El lugar está lamentablemente bastante deteriorado (las ruinas en sí) por los españoles, pero aún conserva muchas de sus formas y es muy interesante estar allí. El recorrido se hace rápido, unas 2 horas talvez. El lugar tiene parqueo, baños y es relativamente fácil de transitar para adultos y niños, aunque no con silla de ruedas o coche de niños. Es cerca de Antigua y Guatemala, por lo que se puede ir como un tour de medio día o de paso. Como recomendación, si van en febrero lleven ropa muy abrigada porque el clima es muy frío y ventoso (alrededor de 8°C).

So glad our tour group spent about 90 minutes here. A trip to Guatemala is incomplete without visiting Mayan ruins. Sports fields caught my interest. Very well cared for plus interesting small museum. Surprising very clean restrooms.

Our trip to this site was unforgettable. Our tour guide Melvin was so knowledgeable, kind, funny, and proud of his culture. All this shined from him and as a result it was truly a potent experience to learn about Iximche from him. Our tour guide for Guatemala, Diego Leal (whom is an incredible guide in his own right, having provided us with safe and comfortable, knowledgeable and wise, and a beautiful tour of Guatemala City, Antigua, and Panahachel), worked seamlessly with Melvin to create a wonderful and moving experience for us. The energy here is tangible and it is SUCH a powerful place to learn about Mayan history.

There was a small museum and several "plazas" that appear to have been excavated recently. Unlike the pyramids in Egypt, the purpose of these "pyrimids" was to "meet with the Gods" and to offer them goods, sacrifices... But then the Spaniards came who declared their "God" is better than the Maya's God. Some of the natives spend time here honoring their ancestors and the "God" they believe in but then they throw a cross (like the Catholics) upon leaving... Interesting place to study evolution of religions....

We booked a ride from Panajachel and the driver dropped us off at main road intersection, about 5km from Iximche. Although we booked the tour to the site we didn’t understand that we’d be dropped off 10 min away from it. We took a TukTuk Q20/person. Q50/person entrance fee.
The site was quiet and enjoyable as only a few visitors were there. There is a small museum that offers some basic information and a nice model of the entire site. Restrooms are right next to where you enter.
Wikipedia has great details which we used as our guide. The first plaza has a temple and next to it an altar that was used for human sacrifices. The further in you go, the less excavation has been performed. It’s not one of the most impressive sites we’ve seen but well worth the visit.
Be sure to go past, what seems to be the last structure. There is a little pyramid that is still used for prayers and sacrifices by the locals.
If you plan for 1.5 hours, self guided, that should give you plenty of time.

The archeological site of Iximche is located near the town of Tecpan about an hour's drive from Antigua Guatemala. The price of admission is 50 Q for foreigners. There are no guides available as far as I saw in April of 2021. Inside you'll find a small museum, which is currently closed due to the pandemic, some vendor stalls, but not too many and all outside the actual park, and very serviceable restrooms. The Site itself is composed of four consecutive plazas that have been excavated to various degrees. Generally, as you head further away from the entrance the less reconstructed the structures. What there is, is well maintained with closely cropped lawns and well-maintained buildings. At the very end of the site, there is a small pyramid used by the modern Maya to make offerings and sacrifices of incents and alcohol.

Worth visiting if it’s on the way. The little town leading up to the cite was very lively and also worth exploring.

How long is the site from Pana? What time should be leave Pana? How much time should we budget there?

I don't know the timing from Pana, as we came from Guatemala City. I'd suggest a half a day at Iximche.

Hi,
We will be taxing a taxi from Guatemala City to Pana in March. Would like to "swing by" the ruins on the way. Does anyone know if taxi's are accommodating to this (although I would imagine anyone is for the right price...more wondering if this would be an unusual thing to do).
Looks like we can get a guide right at the ruins according to previous questions, I assume nothing has changed, and that I won't have to pre-book? I'll be with 2 kids who have been "ruined out" a few years ago, albeit these will be different, and interesting because parts are still used- regardless, I don't think we need to make it a whole day trip. Also we are hitting Tikal later in the trip so it won't be our only ruins on the trip. Any thoughts or tips would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Nancy

Bonjour, assister à d’anciens rites mayas doit être très intéressant mais cela doit avoir un coût. Nous sommes 4, combien faut-il compter par personne ? Merci J.D

Disculpa no hablo francés pero entiendo tu pregunta. El ritual Maya fue una casualidad, no tuvo un costo porque no era para nosotros, simplemente las personas del lugar (una pareja, con una sacerdotisa o chamán) lo realizaban para ellos y tuvimos la oportunidad de observar

Senz'altro vi porteranno per autostrada, non dista molto lontano, saranno circa 60 km ma essendo una strada in collina ci vorrà 1h e 30 min per arrivare.

Each time we drive to Guate from Xela we see all the modern hotels on the highway in and near Tecpan. Are any of them worth staying at? We are retirees on a budget, so be gentle, please.

many of the hotels are rentable for 1 hour and are catered to secrecy with hidden car parking. They can be very inexpensive and will take people in for a whole night. We stayed accidently and I wouldn't do it again.

Durante nuestro viaje llovió muchas veces, casi siempre por la noche. Es necesario ir preparado para la lluvia. Sin embargo la lluvia no impide hacer ninguna visita porque normalmente dura muy poco.
