Itinerary
Get ready for the Tolantongo Tour! Start your day with a mix of relaxation and adventure as we pick you up from your accommodation in Mexico City. Settle into our comfortable vehicle and enjoy the drive through the landscapes of Hidalgo as we head to Grutas de Tolantongo.
Upon arrival, prepare to be mesmerized by one of Mexico’s most stunning natural treasures. This geothermal paradise, nestled within an incredible canyon, invites you to unwind in its mineral-rich hot springs. Feel the soothing embrace of warm waters, naturally heated to a blissful 35º to 38º C (95-100°F), as you take in panoramic views of the towering 500-meter-high (1640 ft) canyon walls that frame this hidden gem.
Do not miss the hot spring pools, a collection of thermal water basins ingeniously carved into the cliffs. Each pool offers a unique perspective of the surrounding canyon, making it the perfect place to soak, relax, and snap some incredible photos.
If you’re in the mood for more exploration, take a refreshing dip in the Tolantongo River, a stunning turquoise-blue waterway that flows through the canyon. The mineral-rich water gives the river its otherworldly color, making it a perfect spot to cool off and enjoy the surrounding beauty.
After a day filled with relaxation and discovery, hop back into our comfortable vehicle and unwind as we journey back to Mexico City. Let the memories of this enchanting natural paradise linger as we drop you off at your chosen location, ending an unforgettable day in the heart of Mexico’s natural wonders.
