Viewpoints and Cruise to Sumidero Canyon from Tuxtla Gutiérrez

Start your full-day tour with hotel pickup in Tuxtla Gutiérrez and embark on a 2-hour boat ride through the majestic Sumidero Canyon, whose walls tower 2,500 feet (762 meters) above. Admire beautiful waterfalls and impressive caves, and search for wildlife such as crocodiles, monkeys, and birds.

Then continue with your guide to Chiapa de Corzo, designated a Pueblo Mágico, or Magical Town, for its historical significance as the first colonial city founded by Spanish conquistadors in the state of Chiapas. You will have time to eat a selection of regional cuisine during a traditional buffet before a visit to the city's central fountain. Here, admire the outstanding Mudejar-style brickwork and colorful crafts for sale nearby.

As you head back toward Tuxtla Gutiérrez, you'll stop at several viewing spots to see Sumidero Canyon from a different perspective. Marvel at the natural wonder from La Ceiba, La Coyota, El Roblar, and Tepehuaja, which brings you closer to the top of the canyon and the last lookout at Los Chiapa. Here, admire a scenic vista of the Grijalva River from above, then relax on the return drive to your hotel.
