Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Car
If you are traveling by car, head towards Palenque, Chiapas. From the center of Palenque, take the Carretera Palenque-Ruinas road. Drive approximately 4.5 kilometers until you see 'El Panchan' sign on your left. The Jungle Palace is located at Carretera Palenque-Ruinas km. 4.5, just off the main road. Look for the hotel signs to guide you in.
Public Transportation
If you prefer public transportation, take a taxi or a colectivo (shared taxi) from the center of Palenque to the ruins. Inform the driver to drop you off at El Panchan. The fare is usually around 50-80 MXN (about 2-4 USD). Once dropped off, walk towards the hotel area, and you will find Jungle Palace within a short walking distance.
Walking
If you are already in the El Panchan area or nearby, simply walk towards the main road (Carretera Palenque-Ruinas). Jungle Palace is located at km 4.5 on that road, marked by clear signage. It should take no more than 10-15 minutes on foot from most locations in El Panchan.
Use Jungle Palace as your starting point for nearby food, family ideas, nightlife, and more local discoveries.
