This private journey is crafted for you, with a guide who leads only your group through mountains, springs, and villages. You travel into the mountains where the air feels crisp. The road winds through valleys dotted with agave fields. At Hierve el Agua you step onto stone cliffs that look like frozen waterfalls. Cool mineral water flows into natural pools where you can dip your feet. The sound of the breeze mixes with the laughter of local families. Your licensed guide shares stories of Zapotec canals carved into the rock. You walk along trails where every step reveals a new angle of the Sierra. In Teotitlán del Valle you touch soft wool as artisans weave by hand. The scent of natural dyes lingers in the air. The tour ends with a lasting image of ancient trees and mountain springs.
