About this trip
Six days through Chiapas, covering Mayan ruins, colonial towns and waterfalls in one route. It's a full itinerary, with a good mix of culture, nature and archaeology packed into a short trip.
You'll spend time in San Cristobal de las Casas and the smaller towns of Chiapa de Corzo, Zinacantan and San Juan Chamula, getting a sense of the region's indigenous traditions, before heading out to lakes, waterfalls and three separate archaeological sites.
