    The place is very beautiful and the experience in the hot springs was excellent, it is a pity that the access road requires at least in certain parts a good scraping, I also think that a double cabin pickup vehicle would have been better than a bus, for greater comfort and security since we were only three people. The driver is a very good person, attentive and responsible.

    Very interesting and instructive... clearly there is a big difference between what you see and read in books or the Internet and the wonderful experience of the archaeological site with the explanations of a guide of the place... it is also very enriching to get to know the work they do in the protection of the Macaw. Additionally, I can say that the transportation and quality of care of the staff that works with civitatis has been excellent.

Copán Ruins Tours & Activities | Discover Mayan Wonders

Located in the lush hills of western Honduras, Copán Ruins is a fascinating archaeological site that once served as the heart of a thriving Mayan civilization. Visitors are enchanted by its mysterious stelae, intricate carvings, and the peaceful atmosphere that surrounds one of Central America’s most famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Wander ancient plazas, admire impressive pyramids, and uncover the secrets of a culture that flourished over a thousand years ago.

A Glimpse into the Past

Copán flourished between the 5th and 9th centuries AD, reaching its peak under powerful Maya rulers. The city was renowned for its arts, astronomy, and unique hieroglyphic texts, which remain carved into its monuments today. Its decline is still something of a mystery, adding to the allure for history lovers and curious travelers alike.

The best time to explore the ruins is between November and April, during the dry season. Comfortable temperatures and clearer skies make for pleasant walks among the ruins, though visits are possible year-round thanks to the region’s mild climate.
