Itinerary
Palenque was together with Tikal and Calakmul one of the most powerful cities of the Classic Maya, seat of one of the most notable dynasties to which Pakal belongs, whose tomb was discovered in 1952 by the archaeologist Alberto Ruz L’Huillier. On the tour you will learn about this fascinating history and we will teach you about the architecture of its buildings.
Misol-ha means "sweeping water" or "waterfall" in the word Cho'l. The Misol-ha waterfall has a waterfall of approximately 30 meters high that when falling forms a large pool where with caution it is possible to swim. We will make a stop for you to admire these beautiful waterfalls.
The blue of the water, the green of the vegetation, the constant breeze and the inexhaustible aquatic sound contribute to make this place, located 133 km from San Cristóbal de las Casas, one of the most spectacular and unforgettable in Mexico.

About Tuxtla Gutiérrez
Tuxtla Gutiérrez, capital of Chiapas, is a warm southern Mexican city at the gate of the Sumidero Canyon, with a famous zoo of native animals.
Tuxtla Gutiérrez lies in a hot valley in the Central Depression of Chiapas, in southern Mexico, and is the state capital and its largest city. Most of it is modern, but the main square has a cathedral with a tall tower, and the Parque de la Marimba hosts evening music, since the marimba is the instrument of Chiapas. ZooMAT, a zoo on a wooded hillside, shows only animals native to Chiapas, among them jaguars and tapirs.
