Itinéraire
La route descend sur plus de 1 500 mètres et atteint la rivière Grijalva où le canyon du Sumidero présente des falaises de 100 à 1 000 mètres de hauteur. Dans ce parc national, il est possible d'observer la faune locale telle que des crocodiles, des singes-araignées et des hérons blancs et cendrés.
Chiapa de Corzo est une charmante ville magique qui célèbre en janvier la Grande Fête, l'une des plus colorées du pays, considérée comme un site du patrimoine mondial par l'UNESCO.
La route menant au village de San Lorenzo Zinancantan est à environ 11 km. long. Les Zinancantán sont également des Mayas Tzotzil et la robe prédominante est constituée de costumes très distinctifs de rose et de violet. Admirez de première main le travail manuel laborieux des tisserandes qui, avec un métier à tisser à la taille, confectionnent de magnifiques pièces textiles telles que des « Huipiles », des nappes, des couvre-lits et des housses de coussin.
San Juan Chamula, (à 10 km de San Cristobal de las Casas) est une ville chargée d'histoire, mais permet également de jeter un coup d'œil sur les Mayas d'aujourd'hui. C'est la plus grande commune maya du Chiapas avec une population de plus de 40 000 locuteurs de tzotzil, l'une des les 31 langues mayas. Cette région est connue pour son mode de vie agricole et cérémonial, qui est un mélange de croyances catholiques et mayas. En fait, l’église catholique Saint-Jean-Baptiste ne fait partie d’aucun diocèse parce que les résidents désirent avoir la liberté d’accomplir divers types de rituels.

It may be that there is not enough time to do the tour to both sites on the same day, but if that is the case, they move the visit to the towns to another day without any problems. Constant contact with the operator. Recommended
¡Gracias por tu recomendación y por confiar en nosotros! 😊 Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste la experiencia. Será un placer recibirte nuevamente en tu próxima visita a México.
My guide Homero and driver Edilberto were both amazing! It was a long day to take me around. Even though I don’t understand Spanish very well and the only one on the trip, they both spared no effort in looking after me. I had a wonderful day and learned many things from Homero who is very knowledgeable and always made sure I was comfortable and safe. I love that he encourages me to take my time and not rush. Thank you both!!!
Thank you, Erin! We're very happy to hear you had a great day with Homero and Edilberto. We'll make sure to share your kind words with them—they'll be delighted to know they helped make your experience so memorable. We truly appreciate you traveling with us and hope to welcome you again on a future adventure in Mexico!
Amazing experience and great guide, we had a fun packed day with so much to see and do, the tour guide Romero was informative and always helped us with ant any questions.
Thank you for your kind review! We’re glad to hear you had such a fun and full day exploring the canyon and the villages. It’s great to know Romero helped make the experience even better with his knowledge and support. We appreciate you joining us!
This experience has been great. The boat ride was impressive. We saw Aranga’s, Crocodiles, and more. Homer was an excellent driver and guide. He knew everything about the history of the country and of the Mayan/Mexican culture. The church is San Juan Chamula is a must-see. No pictures are allowed inside the church.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the boat ride and had the chance to see wildlife up close. We’re especially glad to know that Homero provided an excellent service — he truly loves sharing the history and culture of the region, and we’ll make sure your kind words reach him. The Church of San Juan Chamula is indeed a unique and unforgettable place, and we’re happy you appreciated this special cultural experience. Thank you again for choosing to travel with us. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon! Warm regards,
We were lucky and were alone with the tour guide as a family of 4 and had a private tour! Homero, our tour guide, provided us with a lot of information on this day trip and let us taste local drinks like Pozol, Pox and Atosh at the markets. We also enjoyed being able to taste Talames! We even learned 3 toasts on Zotzil when we were put in traditional clothes in Zinacantán. Thank you Homero for introducing us to the culture! We were able to allocate time freely. The boat trip was also gigantic, you felt like you were in Jurassic Park with the river crocodiles on the shore...
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed a private tour experience and had such a memorable day. Homero will be thrilled to know how much you appreciated his knowledge and the special touches he added. The Sumidero Canyon boat ride truly is an unforgettable experience — we love your comparison to Jurassic Park! Thank you again for choosing us. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon! Warm regards,
This trip had pros and cons. Pro: great guides, friendly and helpful Con: so dusty that I felt unsafe. The road was very hard to see and at times we had to come to a complete stop until the dust cleared. We also had to buy goggles or glasses and bandanas, they do not rent goggles. I know that the road is dry because of the weather, but I would not recommend this trip.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry you found a dusty road during parts of the trip. We understand that such conditions can be unexpected and challenging, for some people is really fun!, I am sorry we do not met your expectations. Thank you once again for choosing us for your travel experience.
We loved this experience! PEDRO are guide was intuitive and geared the tour into what we liked. He was spiritual and amazing!!! The cenote was gorgeous and refreshing swim! The atvs were in great shape! Hung out with a crocodile, zipline and a lot more!
Hello Sam, Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments, I'm really happy you had a great experience with us! For sure I will send your comments to Pedro! Hope to see you soon!
