Tikal is located approximately 64 km northeast of Flores. The city is located 19 km south of the ancient Mayan city of Uaxactún, 30 km northwest of Yaxhá, 100 km southeast of Calakmul, its great rival of the Classic Period, and 85 km northwest of El Caracol, Calakmul's ally, now in Belize.
The ruins are located in the middle of the rainforest, in the Petén basin, which formed the cradle of the Mayan civilisation in the lowlands of Mesoamerica. The city is located amid fertile soils, with high lands and may have dominated the natural trade route that runs east to west across the Yucatan Peninsula.
