Las Coloradas
Las Coloradas is a true natural wonder where we will explore its famous pink lakes.
This unique ecosystem creates a surreal landscape that looks like something from another planet.
The striking pink color of the waters, caused by the high concentration of salt and pigmented bacteria, makes for incredible photos, especially under the bright Mexican sun.
The area is a sanctuary for flamingos, which feed on brine shrimp and algae in the lakes, giving them their iconic pink color.
The tour includes visits to key points of interest, such as the Las Coloradas salt flats, where you will see how salt is traditionally extracted. You will also have the opportunity to explore the local wildlife, including flamingos and other birds that inhabit the region.

Rio Lagartos
You'll have the opportunity to take a walk through the Río Lagartos Biosphere Reserve. You'll be able to observe flamingos, see different types of birds and see mangroves, enjoy an exfoliation bath (with sand), and spend some time on the banks of the Río Lagartos.
After the tour, we'll visit a beach in the Río Lagartos to wash off the sand. Finally, we'll arrive in the town of Rio Lagartos to enjoy a dish (your choice of chicken or fish).
