Description

Our adventure begins at the scheduled time at the Paseo 60 shopping mall. We will depart in a minibus, leaving the city of Merida as we journey to Las Coloradas and Rio Lagartos.

Following a scenic two-and-a-half-hour drive, our first stop will be the Las Coloradas reserve, known for its yellow, orange, and pink waters resulting from high salt and algae concentrations.
