Itinerary

After a pick-up from your accommodation, take a picturesque drive through the Valley of Mexico to reach Sierra Chincua, one of five official monarch butterfly sanctuaries that are famous for its exceptional natural beauty and impressive landscapes. This place is the final (and the only) destination for the annual monarch butterfly migration (November to March) which is considered one of nature’s greatest spectacles and is currently a top-class attraction for visitors from all around the world. Once there, take a short walk (or a horse ride, if you prefer) to the colony of those amazing animals enjoying beautiful mountainous landscapes and clean air on our way.

Afterward, go to the nearby "Magic Town" of Angangueo. Known as "the capital of Monarch Butterfly Reserve", it also used to be one of the most important mining towns in the region and is currently known for its cultural and natural riches.

After an optional lunch and a walking tour around the town, return to your vehicle and relax on your way back to Mexico City.

Why go with us

The time of the tour is spent purely on sightseeing: no visits to souvenir shops and restaurants (unless you ask).

An ideal choice for small groups: the price of the tour is fixed and varies just slightly depending on the number of participants.

We are flexible: the program and route can be adjusted to your interests while the duration of the tour can be always extended for an extra fee.

Logistics

DEPARTURE TIME & LOCATION: Default departure times are 6:00 and 7:00 AM but we can also adjust them per your request. Our guide will meet you at the requested time and location and might need to contact you by phone. Therefore, please kindly provide a valid phone number during your booking.

TOUR DURATION & CUSTOMIZATION: The standard duration of the tour is 12 h from the moment of a meetup. On the other hand, the tour is customizable which means we can adjust the time you spend in each destination. For example, if you want to visit an extra location (attraction/restaurant/market, etc.), you can do it on a complimentary basis if this visit (1) fits the default duration of the tour and (2) doesn't involve a change of the route.

TRANSPORT: Complimentary pick-up/drop-off is included: please indicate the exact time and location for your pick-up during your booking (e.g. in the "Special Requirements" field). That is to say, we can pick you up from the following parts of Mexico City: Polanco, Condesa, Roma, and Centro Historico. Other more remote locations might involve an extra fee.
