This is EXCITING! Darlene and I have talked for several years about taking the train ride to Mexico's Copper Canyon, and we are now booked for next month -- wahoo! I'll be posting updates here before we go, then there will be detailed reports along the way (each day internet accessibility assumed).
We are using T-H-E B-E-S-T company for a tour of the Copper Canyon that exists. Copper Canyon Travel (www.coppercanyonmexico.com) has been providing these tours since 1971, so they know what they are doing -- don't even considering using someone else. They are based in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, making it much easier for you to rest assured that your travels within Mexico will be handled properly, politely, and promptly.
Copper Canyon Travel has an easy-to reach number (it's Vonage, so that's why it shows up as an Oklahoma phone number) 405-216-3142. You don't have to tell them that I suggested you contact them -- just contact them. By the way, I really recommend that you start your tour in Los Cabos -- it's an easy flight from there to Los Mochis, where the fun begins! Remember that the trip to the Copper Canon includes so many possible activities with local Indians.
Here's the quick overview of our trip:
Friday June 15 -- fly from Boise, ID to Los Cabos, Mexico
June 16 -- fly from Los Cabos to Los Mochis; interact with locals at Rio Vista Lodge in El Fuerte
June 17 -- El Fuerte; birding in the day; "Dance of the Deer" traditional Indian ceremony
June 18 -- train ride to Bahuichivo, tunnels and bridges along the way; owner-built San Isidro cabins
June 19 -- Cercahui
June 20 -- train ride to Barrancas; hotel balcony is right on the cliff
June 21 -- waterfalls, hiking
June 22 -- perhaps a third day there (they're quite flexible that way)
June 23 -- train ride back to El Fuerte; dinner and evening at Rio VistaLodge
June 24 -- fly from Los Mochis to Los Cabos
June 25 -- enjoy the beaches of Cabo San Lucas
June 26 -- ditto
June 27 -- fly from Los Cabos back home to Boise.
Sounds like fun, doesn't it? When are you going to book your trip? Hey --want to come along with us? All you have to do is call Copper Canyon Travel at 405-216-3142.
Hasta luego,
Stuart
