Description

Discover the stunning landscapes of Chiapas, Mexico and learn all about the culture of this region. During one whole day, we’ll take you mountain biking through beautiful mountains and forests and stop at some of the iconic indigenous villages of Chiapas. Join us!

Chiapas is the southernmost state in Mexico. It shares a border with Guatemala and was home to the Mayas. There are still many indigenous groups that descend from the Mayas and keep their traditions intact. Chiapas is also a state full of natural attractions to explore, such as the Sumidero Canyon, the Lagunas de Monte Bello, Palenque, and many others.

For this tour, we can either leave from Tuxtla Gutierrez or San Cristóbal de las Casas. We’ll then begin the 32 moderate, single-track terrain kilometers of this adventure. We’ll visit two magical indigenous villages along the way: San Juan Chamula and Zinacantán. San Juan Chamula is a small town inhabited by Tzotzil, a Mayan indigenous group. You’ll be able to learn all about their traditions and culture and visit the dazzling Church of San Juan Bautista, full of vibrant colors. We’ll then stop at Zinacantán for a traditional quesadilla.

So, are you ready for an exciting Mexican adventure? Then just press the request button and follow us for a unique mountain bike tour.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
