    So glad I could do this excursion. Incredible collection of large Mayan stellae in a very accessible setting. Flat terrain is accessible for mobility challenged. Excellent, knowledgeable, guide. Unlike any of the other Mayan ruins I have been to. Done with a Regent excursion from the port of Santo Tomas in Guatemala.

    The prehistoric Mayan city of Quirigua is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The distinctive features at Quirigua are the monumental stelae and the zoomorphic altars found in the central plaza and acropolis. The prehistoric setting for Quirigua involved placement along major trade routes that led to the development of the city. The modern setting of Quirigua is in the middle of a banana plantation. For this reason the archaeological park includes only the central plaza and acropolis. The rest of the site extends into the banana plantation property. At Quirigua stelae and altars have their own sun shades.

    Could use a few more signs to explain the sight. Some walking parks but you walk across grass to many of them. A very interesting archeological site though.

    If you like stelae -- and REALLY like stelae - this site is a must-see; otherwise, kick back and watch the Discovery Channel do the dirty work for you and display the highlights. (Note that my review partly stems from the somewhat unjustified overpriced entry fee for foreigners at a whopping 400% the local charge (which is more decently - and fairly - priced).)
