🌿 Whispers of Water & Stone: A Journey Through Chiapas

  The journey begins descending into Tuxtla Gutiérrez, where our guide awaits like a guardian at the threshold.

🌊Sumidero Canyon
Upon arrival, we are led to the mighty Sumidero Canyon, a sacred scar carved by time and water. A shared boat ride carries us through its towering cliffs, where echoes of ancient spirits ripple across the river’s surface. This is not just sightseeing—it is a ceremonial passage through stone and silence.

🏛️ Chiapa de Corzo
We then journey to the colonial town of Chiapa de Corzo, cradle of the Parachicos—keepers of joy and tradition. Recently honored as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this town invites us to walk its historic center, guided by stories etched into its architecture and plazas.

🌄 San Cristóbal de Las Casas
As the sun begins its descent, we ascend toward San Cristóbal de Las Casas, a highland sanctuary where mysticism and culture intertwine. Here, we rest. The night is for reflection, for grounding, for preparing the spirit for what lies ahead.

⚠️ Note: This itinerary may shift depending on flight arrival time. Travelers arriving after 1:00 PM may experience a reordering of the day’s rituals.

  After a grounding breakfast, we set forth into the highlands—toward the sacred heart of the Tzotzil communities. Today is a day of listening, of witnessing, of honoring the living traditions that pulse through Chiapas like ancestral breath.

🌿 Chamula: Where Time Walks in Ceremony
Our first stop is Chamula, a place where the veil between worlds is thin. Here, contemporary rituals blend seamlessly with ancient Mayan beliefs. We enter with reverence, learning not just with our minds, but with our hearts—observing the sacred fusion that defines this community.

🌸 Zinacantán: The Loom and the Hearth
Next, we journey to Zinacantán, where color and craft speak louder than words. We visit a family-run cooperative, welcomed with a regional drink—a gesture of warmth and trust. Women guide us through the art of the backstrap loom, a Pre-Columbian technique that weaves stories into fabric.
If the spirits align, we’ll be invited into their kitchen, where handmade tortillas are offered like blessings. Each bite carries the memory of generations.

🏙️ Return to San Cristóbal
Back in San Cristóbal de Las Casas, we embark on a walking tour through its cobbled streets, vibrant markets, and colonial facades. The afternoon is yours—free to explore, reflect, or simply breathe in the mountain air.

  After breakfast, we depart San Cristóbal, guided by the pull of sacred waters and whispering trees. Today, we walk with the elements—through cascades, canyons, and crystalline lakes that hold the memory of the land.

🌬️ El Chiflón: The Breath of the Earth
Our first stop is El Chiflón, a majestic waterfall whose name means “the whistle.” Surrounded by sugarcane and palm groves, this natural altar invites us to feel the power of falling water—an ancient cleansing ritual offered by the Earth herself.

🌈 Montebello Lakes: Mirrors of the Sky
We continue to the Montebello Lakes, a sanctuary of color and silence. This Natural Reserve spans pine forests, oak groves, and jungle—each lake a mirror, each hue a message. If the weather allows, we’ll witness the shifting tones of turquoise, jade, and sapphire that dance across the water’s surface.

🌄 Return to San Cristóbal
As twilight approaches, we return to San Cristóbal de Las Casas. The journey back is quiet, contemplative—carrying the echoes of waterfalls and the stillness of lakes 

At dawn, we begin a sacred descent from the highlands toward the jungle realms of Palenque. Today, the journey is guided by flowing waters—each cascade a portal, each river a storyteller.

💦 Agua Azul: The Living Veins of the Earth
Our first offering is Agua Azul, a series of vibrant waterfalls born from the union of the Otulún, Shumuljá, and Tulijá rivers. These waters carve shallow canyons and vertical cliffs, inviting us to swim, to play, to listen. The turquoise currents speak of movement, joy, and renewal.

🌿 Misol-Ha: The Jungle’s Whispering Veil
Next, we arrive at Misol-Ha—a single, powerful waterfall plunging 30 meters into a serene pool, surrounded by lush tropical forest. Here, the jungle breathes around us. The mist becomes a veil, the sound a chant. It is a place to cool the body and awaken the soul.

🏨 Arrival in Palenque
As the day closes, we reach the city of Palenque. The night is for rest, for dreaming, for preparing to meet the ancient stones that await.

  After breakfast, we step into the heart of Maya legacy. Today is a day of reverence—for the wisdom carved in stone, for the stories held in silence, for the ancestors who built with intention and aligned with the stars.

🌞 Palenque: City of Sacred Geometry
We enter Palenque, one of the most profound ceremonial centers of the Maya civilization. Its architecture is not merely structure—it is cosmology made visible.
We walk among temples and palaces:

• The Palace, with its intricate      corridors and observation tower
• The Temple of the Foliated      Cross, a symbol of life and divine order
• The Temple of the Sun, radiant      with cosmic alignment
      Each site invites us to listen—to the wind, to the stone, to the pulse of      ancient time.

🏺 Museum of Palenque:
We then visit the site museum, a treasure of 234 artifacts that illuminate the social, spiritual, and artistic life of Palenque’s people. These objects are not relics—they are voices, still speaking.

✈️ Departure Ritual
At the appointed hour, we are transferred to Villahermosa’s airport.
