Huasca de Ocampo & Mineral del Monte Day Trip

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Pachuca and set off on a day trip to iconic places in Hidalgo.

First, we'll head to the municipality of Huasca de Ocampo, known for its traditional pottery. You'll visit a craftsman's workshop where you'll learn about clay molding and make your own piece of pottery using your feet.

Next, we'll visit the Basaltic Prisms, a unique hexagonal geological formation. We'll then proceed to the Casa del Rompope to sample rompope, a liqueur made from eggs, milk, and vanilla.

Afterwards, we'll visit Mineral del Monte, a traditional mining town. Here, we'll discuss the history of the Count of Regla and the English settlers from the 19th century. As we explore, you'll see their influence and legacy.

Once you've had lunch on your own, we'll visit the Pasty Museum, followed by the English Pantheon to see the tomb of Richard Bell, a notable clown.

We'll return to Pachuca and take you back to your hotel 9 hours after pickup.
