★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great canyon close to Tuxtla Gutiérrez for only 35 pesos entry. You'll need a vehicle to drive/be driven through the 20 km route from the park entry to the last out of four viewpoints. This canyon is similar to some US canyons like the Grand Canyon in Arizona or the Black Canyon of the Gunnison in Colorado, but, yeah you don't pay $30 USD to get in. Oh! on the road up you can also stop at a safety spot and have a great view of the +600,000 people city of Tuxtla

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great experience, was surprised to see so much wildlife. Monkeys, crocodiles, many birds. The scenery was stunning. Sadly, wasn't surprised to see so much trash in the water. According to the guide, the amount of trash wasn't nearly as bad as it is after a heavy rain when it all gets washed down from habited areas. The guide did say that they are addressing the problem. There is a floating snack bar at the halfway point where you can buy snacks and drinks including micheladas. A tip: if you're going to be in Tuxtla and San Cristóbal, book the excursion from Tuxtla, it's much closer.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best boat tour of my life. We got so close to the crocs I even got a little scared! The monkeys were funny and the natural rock formations I’ve never seen anywhere else

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely amazing place to visit. The boat costs 270 pesos per person. Takes two hours. Make sure to tip the guide in the end. They do a great job.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great spot. Get a boat tour at one of the two embarcaderos or do a hiking tour via the vistas, starting at Beica. We had a pleasant boat tour, which features lovely waterfalls, cliffs and wildlife such as crocodiles, iguanas and monkeys. Recommended. Bring hat and sunscreen

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen. This place belongs to the UNESCO world heritage. Seeing this place is breathtaking. I highly recommend to take the tour from San Cristobal de las Casas, a town located 1 hour away from here. If you are running with a low budget, hostel often offer better deals and packages than travel agencies

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So beautiful! We got a bit confused looking for a trail. The best one we found was at the last viewpoint and it strangely get down to a local's camp in the wood after about 2-3km id say. We saw a red - black - yellow coral venomous snake which was dead (thanksfully for us). Careful out there! The heat was so intense we got sunfucked at noon.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The views from the miradores are impeccable!! I usually travel through tourist attractions on my own but it was just so much easier to travel with a tour (cost about the same too). You can’t visit Chiapas and not check out this canyon. I was surprised though that it’s not being mantained too well. On rainy days you can literally see the trash/plastics accumulating in the water.
