San Cristobal de las Casas
Tag 1-3
Our journey begins in San Cristóbal de las Casas, my favorite place in Mexico, where cultures beautifully blend—from Tzotzil Mayan descendants to free-spirited boho travelers. 🌸 We’ll wander through the vibrant local market, visit an indigenous village, and step into a truly unique Mayan church. Here, we’ll uncover why this small village leads the world in Coca-Cola consumption and witness ancient prayer songs that have echoed for thousands of years. All the while, the cobblestone streets, colorful facades, and lively atmosphere of San Cristóbal will completely charm you. ✨

Next, we’ll escape to Rancho Escondido, a very special place in my heart and a true hidden gem. 🌿 Remote and surrounded by abundant wildlife, this peaceful haven offers the perfect chance to slow down.

Simple, authentic, and unforgettable—Rancho Escondido is where nature and serenity embrace you. ✨

Tag 5-6
After two tranquil nights at Rancho Escondido, we’ll journey over the hills toward **Palenque town**. 🌿 Along the way, we’ll stop at a few magical waterfalls for a refreshing swim—crystal-clear pools hidden in lush jungle settings.
