Cañon Del Sumidero, miradores From San Cristobal de Las Casas

Sumidero Canyon is an absolute must-see when visiting Chiapas. Our day began at 8:45 a.m. in the central square of San Cristóbal, where we gathered before setting off on our adventure. We made a quick stop for restrooms and then visited two breathtaking viewpoints overlooking the canyon—one even had a small restaurant—before winding our way down to the port to board our boat. Our captain was incredibly knowledgeable about the canyon, the national park, and the Grijalva River that runs through it. He had a remarkable eye for wildlife, spotting spider monkeys and crocodiles along the way, and he patiently gave everyone time to take photos and ask questions. After a scenic and informative two-hour journey through the canyon, we arrived in Chiapa de Corzo, where we enjoyed a late lunch and explored the local market before heading back to San Cristóbal, returning around 5:00 p.m. Both our guide and driver were fantastic. Although the tour was originally intended to be in Spanish, most of the group spoke English, and our guide did an excellent job sharing everything in both languages—no small feat. I would wholeheartedly recommend this experience and this company!
