Scenery was amazing. The guides were very i formative. The little kids did fall asleep and got bored but everyone thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. You get a water taxi that comes and you can buy refreshments and snacks.

We orginally were going to do the boat tour one in our party got ill and wasn't to being on the water, so we opted to drive this scenic road that takes you to five scenic lookout points. Four are right on the road one requires a 700m walk on a gravel path. At the start of the road you pay an entry fee and then it is a narrow windy drive with excellent views of the sprawlingTuxtla. I'm surprised how few people visit this place. At the time it was just us and a couple driving up the road, the views are stunning with the last view of the bend in the canyon mind blowing. This is probably one of the best drives in Mexico. I would recommend bringing binoculars it is great viewing all the activity in the canyon.

This is a must see in Tuxtla. Although the drive is through winding roads and a bit tiring, the end result is worth it. The views from the viewing deck are just spectacular. Not much to say. A must see for any visitor but definitely a must see for the photographers out there.

This National Park appears to be little known outside of Chiapas. You have 2 options when visiting the area. You can drive up to the midadores which are 5 high look out points with amazing views of the river or you can take a 2 hour guided boat ride through the Canyon. I recommend doing both. On my last trip we drove up the mountain to the well maintained look out points with amazing views in the morning and then had lunch in Tuxla G. After lunch we boarded the near by tour boats. I enjoyed pulling right up to the resting crocodiles on the bank of the river . The whole slow paced day trip took about 7 hours from San Cristobal . We utilized a guide service . Don't go all the way to San Cristobal and miss this National Park.

This place is a Must-see for anyone visiting Chiapas. Many people take the boat tour to the Canyon but not the "Miradores". They don't know what they are missing!
The sights from the observation points are breathtaking. You can easily spend a full day on this tour if you wish, but if your time is limited, then start with the highest observation point, which is the best place to see the Canyon, and stay there as long as you wish.
The tourist services in the area are limited, though. Also, be ready for the chilling weather. Also, sometimes it might get windy or cloudy, the experience is worth the try, anyway.
Enjoy!
