Day of the Dead Night Tour

On the night of Día de los Muertos, we will meet at the Plaza de los Niños Héroes in Morelia at the designated time for the Day of the Dead night tour through Michoacán. Our first destination will be the town of Tupátaro, where we will observe traditional Day of the Dead altars honoring deceased loved ones with candles, skulls, and flowers. Next, we will visit Cuanajo to view the offerings to the deceased and the offering of the little wooden horse in the main square.

We will proceed to Tzurumutaro to visit its cemetery, where family members vigil over their deceased. The atmosphere during this special night is one of joy, with music and dancing continuing until dawn.

Next, we will continue to the Ucasanastacua pier for a boat ride to the island of Pacanda. Here, we will witness rituals and ceremonies tied to the night of the dead, rooted in Purepécha culture.

Afterward, we will return by boat to the Ucasanastacua dock and take you back to the meeting point in Morelia, arriving approximately 15 hours later.
