Cuernavaca's high society culture makes the town vibrate with extravagant palaces, gastronomic experiences, and its spiritual heritage.

Lastly, you will have the chance to visit a Pre-Hispanic Mine in this town, as Taxco became the first major mining center in which the Spanish would operate.

In the event that someone does not present the physical document, it is necessary to show the passport page with the entry stamp into the country, as well as the page with the person's data.
- Please take into account that this tour involves a moderate amount of walking on irregular ground.
- For safety reasons, all infants are required to travel in an approved child restraint system while on the bus. The local operator does not provide child safety seats, so customers must bring their own.
