Useful for your trip

Transport
At Cascada de Tamul, colorful wooden boats with oars are used for navigation. Motorboats are not allowed, which keeps the experience tranquil.
Timing
Visit Chichén Itzá during spring and fall equinoxes to see the light and shadow effect that makes a snake appear to slither down El Castillo pyramid stairs.
Tip
Hidden Beach at Marietas Islands is only accessible at low tide, so plan your visit accordingly.
Tip
Bathing in natural pools at Hierve el Agua (mineral-rich waterfalls) allows views spanning eternity while surrounded by calcified cliffs.
Transport
The road to Cascada El Chiflón features an easy walking path meandering across a lush valley with increasingly amazing views of the falls.
Tip
Cascadas Agua Azul is located 69 km from the Palenque archaeological site, making it possible to visit both in one trip.

Tip
In Guanajuato, underground tunnels (once rivers) now function as roads, adding to the city's unique layout and aesthetic.

Las Coloradas salt flats are visited at a small fishing community; the water's pink hue comes from high salinity and Dunaliella Salina microorganisms.
