- Mexico City - The guide will reach out before the scheduled pick-up time. The pick-up will occur at the accommodation address, with options to choose from 6 am or 7 am. Typically, it takes about 3 hours in the early morning from the central tourist areas.
- Cascadas Quetzalapan - This is the first stop, offering a unique natural spectacle. Marvel at the impressive 35-meter waterfall. It’s not recommended for those with mobility issues, so it can be skipped if necessary. It’s worth descending over 400 steps to admire the cascading Quetzalapan waterfall, where incredible photos can be taken. The stay here will be around 1 hour.
- Restaurante El Mirador - A stop will be made to enjoy a delightful breakfast at the renowned “El Mirador” restaurant, located beside the majestic Valle de los Jilgueros. This venue offers an unparalleled view that perfectly complements the dining experience. The breakfast includes fresh juice, quality coffee, eggs prepared to preference, or a carefully selected regional specialty designed to delight the palate.
- Mirador de Cristal de la barranca - Enjoy an amazing view of the beautiful Jilgueros valley. In the distance, the waterfall Salto de Quetzalapan, visited earlier, can be seen.
- Los Murales De Zacatlan - This is one of the main attractions, featuring a 90-meter-long mural with hundreds of crystals strategically positioned to create this artwork in collaboration with painters, local artisans, and townspeople. It commemorates the 300th anniversary of the magical town.
- Panadería Pimentel - A delicious stop here. The traditional artisanal bread filled with cheese is one of the most popular. Guests are invited to try this delicious bread, and it’s recommended to purchase some pieces to enjoy later.
- Zacatlan - The visit continues with the amazing floral clock located in the middle of the main plaza. Another tasting of traditional liquors and juice will be offered while walking the beautiful cobbled alleys. Additionally, the ex-convent San Francisco next to the giant letters of ZACATLAN can be visited.
- Laguna Chignahuapan - The next magical town, Chignahuapan, is here. A ride around this lake, which gave the town its name, will be taken, as its nine springs are exactly what “Chignahuapan” means in Nahuatl. The lagoon demands this obligatory stop.
- Basilica of the Immaculate Conception - The visit continues with the impressive Virgin of the Immaculate Conception sculpture. This is the tallest indoor statue in all of Latin America, standing 14 meters tall. This religious icon is a symbol of the city’s devotion.
- El Castillo de la Esfera - Chignahuapan is recognized as one of the main producers of Christmas spheres in Mexico. This Magical Town stands out for its numerous artisan workshops dedicated to the production of hand-blown and hand-decorated glass spheres. A visit to this artisanal factory will allow guests to admire or even purchase some Christmas spheres. The tour inside the factory offers insight into the artisanal process.
