Sumidero

Jorge and Eddie did a great job of taking us to the canyon and their various view points. The canyon was stunning and well worth it however I felt that Jorge could have shared more information about the area before and after the tour. We did have a text message before ensuring that we had hats, sunscreen etc, which was a must.

This was my absolute favorite experience in Chiapas! There's nothing I've ever seen like this canyon. The tour guides were helpful and gave ample time for bathroom breaks.

A Breathtaking Journey Through Cañón del Sumidero and Chiapa de Corzo

Our visit to Cañón del Sumidero was one of the highlights of our trip. Both our driver and tour guide, whose names started with the letter “R,” 😂 were friendly, professional, and made the day enjoyable from start to finish. The views of the canyon from above were absolutely breathtaking, but once we descended to the water and experienced its towering walls up close, it became even more spectacular. The natural beauty of the canyon is truly unforgettable. The tour concluded in Chiapa de Corzo, one of Chiapas’ most treasured historic towns. We appreciated having free time to explore its charming streets, and rich history dating back to the 1500s. It was the perfect way to end an incredible day filled with stunning scenery, culture, and history. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chiapas.

Breathtaking perspective from top to bottom

We had an incredible time on this excursion. The viewpoints offer some of the best panoramic vistas in the country, and the boat trip through the heart of the canyon is mind-blowing. Seeing the sheer height of the walls from the water is an experience I will never forget. Highly recommend this specific tour for anyone wanting to see the canyon from every possible angle.
