Join a city walking tour
One of the best things to do in San Cristobal de las Casas to get to grips with the beautiful city is to join a walking tour. You could opt to simply follow your own self-made tour around the pedestrian-friendly streets, wandering the Real de Guadalupe. Make sure not to miss the Arco del Carmen, the 17th-century gateway to San Cristobal – you can’t miss it, as it is bright ochre! Alternatively, you could join a free walking tour. These leave from Plaza de la Paz every day, in front of the cat...

Drop by the Museo de Trajes Regionales de Sergio Castro
The Museo de Trajes Regionales de Sergio Castro is the place to go to learn all about traditional crafts in Chiapas. The museum displays almost 1,000 pieces from the indigenous Maya population of Chiapas; it’s particularly unique in that traditional burial usually requires the possessions and clothing of the deceased to be buried with them. Another interesting part of this museum is the local character who oversees the proceedings: Sergio Castro. Rather than being donations to the museum, the...
Zinacantan
In the central Chiapas highlands, just a 20-minute drive from San Cristobal, you’ll find Zinacantan, one of the best places to visit on day trips from San Cristobal de las Casas. Most of the population of this area is Tzotzil, complete with their own language and culture. In fact, they have strong links to the historic Aztec civilization. The traditional dress here is colorful: men wear bright pink tunics embroidered with flowers; women drape themselves in bright pink shawls. While you’re in...
San Juan Chamula
San Juan Chamulais a very unique place and one of the best day trips from San Cristobal de las Casas you could take. Only 20 minutes by road, this highland village is proud of its culture and independent spirit, with most of the population being Tzotzil. This village stood up against the Spanish colonizers and, even after being subjugated by them, retained many Maya spiritual and religious practices. This can be seen most prominently at the church. More of a temple than a church, don’t come i...

When you need a breath of fresh air away from the city, and especially if you are traveling with kids, Parque Ecoturístico Rancho Nuevo is the place to go. This nature reserve boasts woodlands, trails, and a series of caves and is a fun place to explore – and also has a multitude of activities, from adrenaline-pumping ziplines to slides and horse rides. With all these fun activities, you may be getting hungry. But don’t worry: there is a selection of Mexican eateries on offer, so you can enjo...
