42. Mexico. Travel from Tehuantepec through Chiapas across Mexico to Campeche on the Gulf of Mexico

We are now well into our Tripadeal Best of Mexico Tour.  

We have settled into the routine of the journey.   

We start this week’s episode from where we left off in Episode 41, travelling to Chiapas and the Grand Canyon of Mexico – the Sumidero Canyon. 

We take you on a two hour boat ride where we see crocodiles, spider monkeys and 1000 metre high cliff faces. 

Next we explore the cobblestone streets of San Cristobal de las Casas and enjoy the contrast of the old with the modern.  

After a free day we have a very early start to take us – and you - to one of the most spectacular places we have ever seen – the beautiful Agua Azul waterfalls. The water is so incredibly blue and we were able to climb to the top and have a refreshing swim.  This made everyone very happy.

After a very windy bus trip we arrive late afternoon at our hotel, where we all go straight to the pool area and order cocktails.  We tell you all about our early “Wake up call” – not something you hear in Australia. 

Listen to the end as we take you to our favourite archaeological site so far.  We tell you why it’s our favourite, what famous TV documentary show was being filmed while we were there and why I expected to run into Indiana Jones at any minute. It’s certainly an amazing few days crossing the middle of Mexico and finishing up seeing the sunset on the Gulf of Mexico. 

So please Enjoy Episode 42.
