Miradores Cañon del Sumidero - Departing at 8:45 am from San Cristobal, the first stop of the day is a place where nature transforms into visual poetry. From the summit of the initial viewpoint, the scenery unfolds like an endless canvas of greenery, mountains, and open skies. It’s the perfect beginning to a day filled with wonder, connection, and unforgettable moments that will linger in the heart! Note: Closed on Tuesdays.
Parque Nacional Cañon del Sumidero - Experience a boat ride through the towering waters of Sumidero Canyon, where rock walls soar up to a thousand meters above the Grijalva River, creating a breathtaking natural spectacle. Onboard, the wind gently brushes the face as caves, waterfalls, and the rich biodiversity of this natural sanctuary are discovered. This tour inspires admiration and respect for the majestic Chiapas landscape.
Chiapa de Corzo - Discover Chiapa de Corzo, a charming magical village along the Grijalva River, where history and tradition are present in every corner. Stroll through its central square, dominated by the impressive Mudejar fountain known as La Pila, built in the 16th century with red brick and an octagonal shape, unique in Latin America. Interestingly, Chiapa de Corzo was the first city founded by the Spanish in the current state of Chiapas in 1528, marking the beginning of a rich cultural fusion that still thrives.
San Cristobal- San Juan Chamula- Zinacantan- San Cristobal
San Juan Chamula - At 9:30 am, embark on a journey to the indigenous communities of the Tzotzil ethnic group, immersing in a world of living traditions and unique culture in San Juan Chamula. In this sacred place, spirituality reveals itself in surprising ways: in its main church, there are no conventional pews or altars, and prayers blend with the smoke of copal and the glow of thousands of candles burning directly on the ground. This fusion of Mayan and Catholic beliefs creates a mystical atmosphere that deeply resonates.
Zinacantan - Next, visit Zinacantán, a land of flowers and colors, where the church is adorned with fresh petals and a family cooperative is visited. Here, women proudly demonstrate the art of the waist loom, an ancient technique that has survived since pre-Columbian times, passed down through generations. Admire the beauty of its textiles, rich with symbolism and dedication, and then proceed to the kitchen, where a typical regional drink is shared, and if fortunate, enjoy handmade tortillas, warm and steeped in history.
After this immersive experience in the Tzotzil communities, return to San Cristobal de Las Casas with a heart full of gratitude and senses enriched with culture, flavor, and tradition.
San Cristobal - Blue Water & Misolha Waterfall- Palenque
Cascadas de Agua Azul - Departing at 3:30 am from San Cristobal, enter a natural paradise at the Blue Water Cascades, where water flows in vibrant turquoise hues over limestone formations, creating a series of falls and pools that seem to be drawn from a dream. Surrounded by the lush Chiapas jungle, these waterfalls offer a visual and auditory spectacle that invites contemplation and awe. A fun fact: the blue color of the water is due to its high mineral content and the sunlight reflecting off the calcareous bottom, a natural phenomenon that varies with the season and flow intensity.
Misol-Ha - Venture into the Chiapas jungle to discover the majestic Misol-Ha waterfall, a cascade over 30 meters high that plunges into a pool surrounded by lush vegetation. The sound of water and the freshness of the surroundings create a unique sensory experience. Fun fact: this stunning natural setting was featured in the film Predator (1987), starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, which brought international fame and made it a cinematic icon of the region.
Palenque - The day concludes at the bus station between 3:30 pm and 4:30 pm, depending on the group. Note: The visit does not include the archaeological area of Palenque.
