Ideal tour to get from San Cristóbal to Palenque and experience something at the same time. The waterfalls are all very worthwhile and beautiful, Palenque is definitely worth a visit. I would probably take a bit more time there than the almost 2 hours available. The driver was incredibly nice and competent, drove quickly but absolutely safely. If there was one thing I would like, it would be the option to choose when booking whether you want to stay in Palenque. This is always possible on site without any problems, but you always pay for the return trip to San Cristóbal, which is a bit annoying. Otherwise, overall, an absolute recommendation and a great tour package!

You get a nice but small insight into the indigenous population of Zinacantán and Chamula. In Zinacantán you can watch the weavers at work and try homemade food. I was allowed to try on the traditional everyday clothing once. However, it is also a sales event. In Chamula you walk to the church, where the interesting shamanic rituals are mixed with the worship of Catholic saints. Our guide was able to answer many questions about the life of the indigenous groups. However, I would have liked more information.

The pick-up and transport was very pleasant. The driver spoke only Spanish and took us to two viewpoints above the canyon. We then drove to the jetty and got into a boat with another group of tourists. The boat driver explained details about the canyon and the animals in Spanish. There was enough time to take photos of the beautiful motifs. Chiapa de Corzo was not worth it in my opinion, but there are plenty of restaurants.

Our trip to Agua Azul and Palenque was wonderful! The guide was knowledgeable and gave us plenty of time to enjoy the beauty of each site. The tour began very early in the day, 4am, But it was totally worth getting up early to see such beauty!
