in Bacalar stay at Casita Carolina. There are two routes from Antigua to Tikal, if you go thru Coban try to visit Semuc Champey. There is some nice riding around there and worth the stop, try to stay at El Retiro lodge in Lanquin. It is a comfortable place located on a nice river and about 20 minutes from Semuc Champey. From Lanquin there are two ways to go towards flores/Tikal. One is a good road thru Coban, the other dirt, rock and gravel but beautiful mountain road. I suggest the dirt road if you have company, if solo take the asphalt road. The towns are few and far between on the dirt roaddd.
