We will take a boat for a 2-hour journey on the Grijalva River, where you will witness limestone walls reaching up to 1,000 meters, waterfalls feeding the river, and unique natural formations such as "The Christmas Tree," "The Cave of the Virgin," and the "Symbol of Chiapas."
Following our tour of the Sumidero Canyon, we will visit the magical town of Chiapa de Corzo, founded in 1528 by Captain Diego de Mazariegos.
