Highlights

Itinerary

Get ready for Las Estacas Tour! Our first stop is the serene and beautiful Las Estacas in the Morelos State. This natural waterpark offers a variety of activities, perfect for those looking to relax or seek some thrills.

Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Las Estacas where you can snorkel among fish and aquatic life. For more excitement, take a kayak ride along the river or zipline across the lush landscape for an adrenaline-pumping experience. Afterward, take a moment to relax on the riverbanks, soaking up the sun’s warmth, surrounded by nature’s tranquility. Whether swimming, kayaking, or simply enjoying the view, Las Estacas is the perfect place to unwind and embrace the beauty of Morelos.

Once refreshed, we’ll head to the charming town of Tepoztlan, one of Mexico’s most magical “Pueblos Mágicos”. Known for its colorful streets, traditional markets, and historic landmarks, this town offers an authentic glimpse into Mexican culture. Our first stop is the Tepozteco Pyramid, an ancient site high above the town. From the top, you’ll be treated to beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and valleys, making the hike worthwhile. The pyramid itself is an integral part of Tepoztlan’s pre-Hispanic heritage, dedicated to the god Tepoztecatl.

Afterward, stroll through Tepoztlan’s quaint market, filled with local crafts, handmade goods, and fresh produce. Here, you can enjoy some delicious regional cuisine, from tacos and tamales to pulque (a traditional fermented beverage) and local sweets.

For those seeking more adventure, a hike through the Tepozteco Mountains offers even more incredible views of the town and its surroundings. The mountains provide a peaceful escape, surrounded by lush greenery and trails leading to stunning viewpoints.

After a day full of new experiences, return to our vehicle and relax on the way back to Mexico City.
