8 hrs / exchange rate $15 pesos / price $1200 pesos p/p
This expedition is for travelers who want to take their travels a step further. Who seek cultural and adventure experiences that transform them. This trip includes opportunities to learn about local cuisine, private homes, swim in marine fauna destinations, ride a horse or live with species in their natural habitat.
This small town in Mexico is the perfect destination for wanderers and dreamers. The best thing about this place, besides its brilliant tropical beauty, is its timelessness. In the carless village, donkeys still serve as freight trucks, the sun and roosters are the only alarm clocks, and life’s major decisions are of the norkeling or napping variety.
Ready to experience a hidden Yelapa waterfall? This is the tour for you! Stroll through the charming fishing village while checking out the different crafts on the way to the Cola de Caballo waterfall, jump in the refreshing water or just sit back and enjoy the natural beauty.
Then relax in the sun on the expansive Yelapa Beach, where the river flows into the ocean, surrounded by an incomparable landscape of green mountains. Whether you hike to waterfalls, snorkel, or bury your toes in the sand, you’ll be amazed by the idyllic beauty of these tropical retreats.
