Tasting Pox, the local liquor, was fun. The church in Chamula was unlike anything we'd ever seen. Very tranquil and spiritual.”

“the Azul waterfallsxwere the most unique I have ever seen You can BYO food instead of paying 250 pesos fur a buffet. You also don't need to pay for a guide at the Mayan Archaeological site as there are signs at each spot in English and the guide just reads those to the people anyway 🤣🤣🤣”

Review of the 19-hour Chiapas trip to Agua Azul, Misol-Ha, and Palenque, with practical advice on timing, comfort, costs, and the Palenque drop-off.
“This activity was amazing. We choose it as practical way to continue our trip from Palenque. Consider to wake up early and the time spent on the bus. Although it's a great chance to see a lot of small rural villages along the way. We had enough time to visit the places, only Palenque was a bit tight but doable. Our drive really made this activity exceptional. He was very kind, flexible, and really cared about the passengers, telling stories about Chiapas (in Spanish). I'd recommend it.”
