Private Tour to Magical Towns from Mexico City: Visit Real de Monte and Huasca de Ocampo
The tour begins in the magical town of Real del Monte, where we will cross its streets, the delicious pastes, pulque, and heavy cream bread, tamales, and more.
The visit continues in the English cemetery, where all the graves are oriented towards England, then we will have free time for shopping and lunch.
Visiting the Basaltic Prisms in Huasca de Ocampo
We will continue to Huasca de Ocampo, for a visit to one of its main attractions, the “Basaltic Prisms”. With 30 meters high, these prisms are geometric basalt columns that decorate the walls of the impressive canyon of Santa Maria Regla, which are bathed by the four waterfalls feeding the dam of San Antonio Regla and the Hacienda San Miguel Regla.
This beautiful hacienda of the eighteenth century, probably the most famous of the state, belonged to Pedro Romero de Terreros, Conde de Regla and was his favorite place for living. Nowadays part of the hull is preserved, as well as some of the arches that were part of the courts and the ovens where the silver was extractable.
We’ll finish our tour in the afternoon, returning to Mexico City
