Description

Mexico is full of gorgeous natural spots that visitors can enjoy. From volcanoes and valleys to caves and jungles, it is a paradise for people who love the outdoors. Moreover, there are lovely areas that you can explore and enjoy that aren’t even that far from the country’s sprawling capital city. One such area is the Magdalena River, which for a full day you will get to casually walk along.

Throughout the day, as you venture along the Magdalena River, you will get to gaze at the lovely countryside. You will get to look at several stunning cliffs and wonderful woods. There will be an adventurous aspect to this trip as well, as we cross the river from time to time.

Another great advantage to this trip is how close the river is to Mexico City. Hence making this trip a great addition to any trip you may be taking to the city. It is also a perfect way to escape the noise and traffic of the city and get some peace, too.

As easy as it is wonderful, this trip along the Magdalena River is open to anybody. Kids as young as seven years old can even enjoy this trip. As a result, you can enjoy the river and the countryside with the whole family.

What people are saying about México

The guides on Malinche and Orizaba were very good. But there was a big problem on Iztaccihuatl. I said to each of the guides that I had there that I wasn't bothered about seeing the sunrise from the top, and would it be possible to start a bit later than the usual 1am? They both agreed that it was, one saying that the reason for leaving so early was that normally they needed to take clients back to Mexico City after the climb, and in my case that wasn't necessary as I would stay at the visitor's centre. So in the end we left the visitor's centre at 4:30am. When we got to a foresummit of Iztaccihuatl at 11am, my guide said that we had left very late, and would have to turn back. So we never reached the top, to my great annoyance. In retrospect the best option would have been to have spent one night at the refuge at 4700m before going to the top, but this was never really offered as a possibility.

I love Carlos and the team! We ended up changing our itinerary to 3 mountains in 8 days and had a great experience. I will recommend Carlos and his wonderful hospitality and working with logistics anytime!

Great experience, glad I had the opportunity to do this hikes. I was only able to summit one of 3 peaks. One of them Malinche was because the cops didn't let us go up. make sure to start really early so that won't be a problem. The cops stop everyone in bad weather regardless if you have a guide or not. Iztaccihuatl I was able to summit bc the guide Carlos make sure we save our energy for the key areas. Pico de Orizaba it was not possible, because 40 mph winds and snow or hail, the guide make sure we returned safely back to the refuge. If we were able to extend the trip by one day we could have summit, no one summit that day but those that tried the following day had much better success rate. Either way always respect the mountain
