The Lacandon Jungle is one of the best destinations for nature tourism in Mexico and if you want to enjoy the adventure during your holiday in Chiapas, the rafting on the river Lacanja activity is indicated for the practice among magnificent scenery. During the trip we visited a Mayan archaeological site and hopefully we can see some jungle animals

I spent a day at the Rancho Evergreen and it was exactly what I've been looking for: nice people who care about their animals, about nature, about your wellbeing... and the food is delicious! :) It's definitely not one of those "hop-on-hop-off" horse ride experiences. You meet "your" horse, spend time with it and the ride is adapted to your riding skills. I definitely recommend staying at this place if you want to spend a day with horses or just in the nature to disconnect a little. Can be easily reached by public transport and taxi.

In summary? Well worth the visit. A nice surprise. Now some detail: This 800+ stair down (and then 800+ stair back up) adventure gave us much more (in a positive sense) than we had expected (from the reviews we read). We drove there from Tuxtla after visiting the Sima de los Cotorras - a good combination of trips. Driving ourselves always adds an element of adventure and uncertainty (something I guess we enjoy). From the falls themselves, to the path up and down, to the road in, it added up to give us a memorable and most enjoyable experience. The entry fee is very modest and parking is secure and safe. There were maybe half a dozen cars when we were there. One possible issue (in terms of driving) is the one lane road in and out just prior to the falls - with a fairly steep drop on one side. We didn’t run in to any counter flow, but it would have made for some interesting negotiations had we met another car. While the walking path down is good, you need some fairly reasonable level of movement to make the cross-country trek at the end. I think we ended up spending about 2 hours up and down.

We loved it! Behind every corner we found new waterfalls and nice place to swim. It's a perfect day to chill, relax and swim there. We saw one restaurant around there and public toilet. Bring water shoes, some places can be slippery and muddy. Bring a bag for your garbage and don't leave it there. So sad there was garbage put in between tree roots etc. Keep the envirement and these amazing waterfalls clean. It's also very adventurous to walk around there!

If you speak a bit of Spanish, you can easily see the hill towns near San Cristobal without taking a tour. Colectivos (shared vans) run to and from little stations near the Barrio de los Mexicanos market in San Cristobal to and from both San Juan Chamula and Zinacantan, mainly taking indigenous people from those towns to the city to sell their crafts and produce. Even if you have a few days in the area, don't miss San Juan Chamula! Located on the main square, the Church of San Juan Bautista is pretty enough outside, with its lovely green decorative touches on pure white. But inside (where photos aren't allowed), it offers an extraordinary glimpse into indigenous culture. Long-leafed pine needles cover the floor, reflecting the Mayan belief that one's feet should never touch a sacred structure. Local people kneel on the floor praying next to tows of thin candles. Santos (statues of saints) line the walls. Except for windows high on the walls, the only light comes from the candles. While being overwhelmed by the scene inside the church, don't miss the botanical gardens adjoining and behind it. When we went through it in April, the mingled scents of roses and pines met us. Irises brightened the paths. Interpretive signs (in Spanish, some fairly faded) explain the religious and medicinal uses of the trees and other plants. A shaded section in the back displayed various species of bromeliads.
