Real de Catorce Day Trip
At 7:30 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in San Luis Potosí. From there, we'll set off to the Magic Town of Real de Catorce in the mountains.
After crossing the high plateau of Potosí, characterized by cacti and palm trees, we will proceed to the Ogarrio Tunnel. Upon arrival, a guided tour will take you through the main attractions of this old mining town.
While mining for silver, an aquifer was discovered, which flooded the mine and subsequently led to the town's abandonment due to the cessation of economic activity.
During the trip, you will have 1 hour of free time for lunch. Following this, we will walk through the streets of Real de Catorce to visit the Casa de la Moneda, the first mint founded in Mexico.
We will then explore the Plaza de Armas and visit the Church of the Purísima Concepción, home to the venerated image of San Francisco.
We will return you to your hotel in San Luis Potosí, arriving at approximately 7:30 pm.
