Itinerary
Start your Grutas de Tolantongo Tour by meeting your guide at your accommodation for a scenic drive to one of Mexico’s most magical natural wonders. Located in Hidalgo, this destination is famous for its landscapes and soothing hot springs. As you travel, enjoy the ever-changing landscapes—from lush valleys to mountainous views—making the journey as memorable as the destination. Along the way, stop to taste barbacoa, a traditional dish from Hidalgo, known for its rich flavors and slow-cooked perfection. This will be a great introduction to the local culture and its culinary delights.
Upon arrival at Grutas de Tolantongo, prepare to be enchanted by this natural paradise. Known for its hot spring pools, the warm waters of the pools are built into the side of a 500-meter-high canyon, creating an incredible visual spectacle. The water temperature ranges from 35º to 38º C, providing the perfect environment to relax and soak in the beauty that surrounds you. The natural pools, with their stunning views of the canyon, are the perfect place to unwind, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of nature.
One of Grutas de Tolantongo’s main attractions is the two grottos carved into the canyon’s walls. From these caves flows a volcanically heated river, meandering through the canyon floor and adding a sense of magic to the landscape. As you explore the area, take time to enjoy a warm shower inside the “tunnel,” a small cavern filled with hot spring water, offering a relaxing and soothing experience for your senses.
The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at your leisure. Whether you choose to relax in the natural pools, wander through the canyon, or take part in one of the optional activities, such as ziplining or hiking, the experience is tailored to your interests. The peace and tranquility of the area will help you rejuvenate, offering a true escape from the everyday hustle.
After spending the night in this peaceful paradise, wake up refreshed and enjoy an optional breakfast before we say our goodbyes and begin the journey back to Mexico City. You’ll leave with unforgettable memories of a place that blends natural beauty, relaxation, and a hint of adventure.
