Sumidero Canyon & Chiapa de Corzo Tour

Escape from Tuxtla Gutierrez for a day to discover one of Chiapas' most spectacular natural landmarks: the Sumidero Canyon. You'll also explore the magical colonial town of Chiapa de Corzo.

Sumidero Canyon & Chiapa de Corzo Tour

We'll pick you up from your hotel and set off on our journey to the Sumidero Canyon. After a short drive, we'll board a boat for an in-depth tour of this natural wonder.

During the boat tour of Sumidero Canyon, which lasts about two hours, we'll sail between the sheer rock walls of the canyon, towering at approximately 1,000 meters (3280 feet) high. We'll admire the lush vegetation and spot various wildlife, including crocodiles, spider monkeys, and pelicans.

After the boat trip, we'll travel to Chiapa de Corzo, the first colonial city founded by the Spaniards in 1528. We'll learn about its history and discover its key buildings and monuments, such as a Mudejar-style fountain from the 16th century and the ex-Convent of Santo Domingo.

You will have an hour of free time for lunch before we visit the Sumidero Canyon viewpoints for a different perspective of the gorge.

We will conclude our excursion by returning to Tuxtla Gutierrez, arriving 8 hours later.
