Our visit to Cañón del Sumidero was one of the highlights of our trip. Both our driver and tour guide, whose names started with the letter “R,” 😂 were friendly, professional, and made the day enjoyable from start to finish. The views of the canyon from above were absolutely breathtaking, but once we descended to the water and experienced its towering walls up close, it became even more spectacular. The natural beauty of the canyon is truly unforgettable. The tour concluded in Chiapa de Corzo, one of Chiapas’ most treasured historic towns. We appreciated having free time to explore its charming streets, and rich history dating back to the 1500s. It was the perfect way to end an incredible day filled with stunning scenery, culture, and history. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chiapas.
The guide super friendly and always attentive to everyone. The sump barrel is amazing. I'd skip the viewpoints and Chiapa de Corzo.
Great experience, the guide explains super well, the city of arrival is really nice, remember to take something for lunch.
Very nice city in Chiapas. Clash of indigenous cultures and great places to visit. Very good restaurants.
We had an incredible time on this excursion. The viewpoints offer some of the best panoramic vistas in the country, and the boat trip through the heart of the canyon is mind-blowing. Seeing the sheer height of the walls from the water is an experience I will never forget. Highly recommend this specific tour for anyone wanting to see the canyon from every possible angle.
we‘ve done so many tours in Mexico now and this one was not that well organized tbh. We were at the agreed upon meeting point at 8:45 but nobody showed up until 9 am and then we picked up different people and were on our way 30 minutes later. The boat seats itself were extremely uncomfortable and the boat driver Gilberto stated every.single.sentence with „CHICOS Y CHICAS!!!“ which got really annoying after a while. He constantly stopped in the Canyon to show us some rock formations that were supposed to look like a heart- just not that interesting tbh. The canyon itself is very worth seeing- its breathtaking.
Excursion cancelled the day before due to rain... exchange made for the next day with confirmation that the program would be the same... and not at all! End of the excursion at 15h15 (announced 17h), and no stop at Mirdor!!!
It's alot of time on a minibus for a wonderful 2hr hour boat trip through the canyon. Consider getting a bus or driver to Chiapa de Corzo for round trip tour on river instead.
Very interesting and beautiful trip through the canyon. The van and boat drivers were great and everything went smoothly.
Nice visit, very beautiful canyon, we saw many animals. Recommendation, do not go to the restaurant at the exit of the boat.
