Travel time from Grand Tikal to US Embassy?

Can someone give me a rough estimate of how much time I should allow for the taxi ride from Grand Tikal to US Embassy (I am actually not sure if I am taking a taxi or if the agency's driver is picking me up, but I'd like to know in either case).
Thanks!
PS....I can't believe this is my last Saturday in Guatemala, and tomorrow is my last day in Antigua.
WOW!
I also can't believe how much extra stuff I've acummulated in the two months I've been here. I'm rushing around the apartment this morning trying to pack up and figure out what to do with the stuff I'm not going to take with me.....wow!!!

Traffic was bad for us, and it took about 20 minutes that day.

Have a great time!
