Immersive Cañada de La Virgen Pyramid Tour
4.8 / 5 · 803 traveler reviews
As we guide you through this magical place, we'll share what we have gleaned through hands-on experience & years of study about ancient Mesoamerica, the legends & wisdom of local people. You will hear about each place and its cultural significance as you journey along the path the ancients took to reach the pyramid. We've taken 10,000+ people on tours since the site opened to the public in 2011. Our passion is relating information that is just coming to light in an area recently investigated in an enjoyable way. We hope to see you soon. This is "a must do while you’re here…!" "An experience that can’t be missed." "Don’t get left behind."
