Top 7 Things to do Good for Kids in Copan Ruinas, Copan Department
Abandoned in the 10th century, the stunning Mayan ruins at Copan deserve as much time as you can spend there, a full day or more. Travelers recommend that you hire a guide; you'll learn so much more about this World Heritage site and its history and people than you ever could on your own. After your adventure, sip a cup of strong Honduras coffee and people-watch in the main square or just enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery.

What an amazing day! From meeting the owner Carlos to being guided by the incredibly knowledgeable Josue and Don Arnurfo around the finca on horse (a real ride not just a trail ride). We saw amazing vistas, unique plants and interesting sustainable agriculture. To top it off back at the house we had a home made lunch (a feast is a better description) of almost completely ingredients from their finca. I will be back and hope others get to go too.

Copan Ruinas are a must if in Honduras or even if you're in a neighboring country. The quality of the ruins, in terms of preservations, is outstanding. I highly recommend walking about and getting close and personal with these Mayan ruins.

Copan Ruinas valley of Kings, Sacred Valley of the Red Scarlet Macaw. Copan Ruinas is an ancient city in the Mayan Empire. Located in western Honduras at just under 10 minutes from the border with Guatemala el Florido. More than 138,000 visitors came here in 2017, the lowest in years but with a slight increase in traffic in comparison to 2015. Many agree the bad condition of the road plays an important role to this lack of traffic. Hopefully in 2018 will be better.

We had a quick afternoon visit here with our 4 year-old son. Admirable enterprise and allowed us all to see several species of birdlife, while appreciating that they had been rescued from dire circumstances. The park is easy to reach from Copan Ruinas town centre (via tuk-tuk) and the paths are well laid out throughout the property.
