It was a long day but stunning scenery and Aqua Azul waterfalls was absolutely beautiful. The next waterfall was also lovely but it’s hard to beat Aqua Azul. We got to Palenque ruins at the heat of the day. About 40C and walking around for 2 hours was not fun though the ruins are spectacular and it’s such a lovely setting. We wished we had thought of asking for tickets and gone the following day as we were staying over and not returning. The driver was first class. It’s a difficult road to drive especially in the dark and even with dawn there was some mist about, He was a very careful and great driver. Overall it was money well spent and I would highly recommend it.
