“Viajamos con dos niños de 8 y 11 años con el Paquete Familiar. Todo perfectamente coordinado — los guías pacientes y el ritmo ideal para los niños. Las Cascadas del Meco los dejaron boquiabiertos y en Micos se metieron al agua con chaleco sin un solo susto. El hotel los trató como reyes.”

“Aventura Extrema son tres días de tour y cada uno más fuerte que el anterior. El de llegada ya vas manejando el todoterreno por la sierra, y el último te avientas los saltos de Micos. Te deja sin palabras. Volvería sin pensarlo.”

“Era nuestra primera vez en la Huasteca y no queríamos volver con la lista a medias. Cinco días de tour y ninguno se parece al anterior: Edward James, Tamul con los pericos, Minas Viejas y Micos. Cerrar en la finca de café fue el descanso que no sabíamos que necesitábamos.”

Coming from Mexico City

You arrive at night and your tour starts on Day 1

With the overnight bus from Mexico City you get a full first day: you arrive at dawn, rest at the hotel and set off on your first tour that same morning.

  1. Overnight bus

    You leave the Terminal Central del Norte at around 10:15 PM (Servicios Coordinados / ETN). Roughly $650 MXN per person.

  2. You wake up in Xilitla

    You reach the Xilitla bus station around 6:30 AM. A taxi of about $60 MXN drops you at the hotel in some 7 minutes.

  3. You rest on arrival

    We give you your room early so you can sleep for a while before heading out. Breakfast is already included in your tour.

  4. A full tour on Day 1

    That same morning our van picks you up and your first tour begins. You don't lose your arrival day.

Frequently asked questions

Is the price per person or per couple?+

Per couple: each package's figure is the total for two people sharing a room. For groups, families or extra people we put together a quote tailored to you — message us on WhatsApp.

How do I get to Xilitla?+

You can come by car, by plane (Tampico is the most practical airport) or on the overnight bus from Mexico City (Terminal Norte, ~10:15 PM, arriving ~6:30 AM). The 'How to get here' section above explains each option in detail.

How do I get to Xilitla from Mexico City?+

The most practical way is the overnight bus from the Terminal Central del Norte (~10:15 PM, Servicios Coordinados / ETN), which reaches Xilitla around 6:30 AM for about $650 MXN per person. A taxi of roughly $60 MXN drops you at the hotel in 7 minutes. Since you arrive at dawn, we give you your room early so you can rest, and your first tour starts that same day: you don't lose Day 1.

Can I choose my room?+

Yes. Hotel Paraíso Encantado has several rooms (Orquídeas, Bromelias, Lirios and Jungla). The jungle-view rooms are included in the price; the Jungla suite, with a mountain view, carries a supplement of $400 MXN per night.

Does the price include getting to Xilitla?+

It isn't included, but we do arrange it separately: we offer private transfers from San Luis Potosí (from $6,000 MXN round trip per vehicle), Tampico (from $5,000 MXN round trip per vehicle), CDMX (from $14,000 MXN round trip per vehicle). The package price does cover transport from the hotel to the start of each tour and back. If you'd rather make your own way, the 'How to get here' section lists the car, plane and bus options.

How do you confirm availability?+

When you send us your enquiry on WhatsApp we check hotel availability and dates in real time. We reply in under 1 hour, and you don't need to pay anything up front to hold your dates.

How much does a trip to the Huasteca Potosina cost?+

An all-inclusive package with hotel starts at $8,699 MXN per couple for 3 days and 2 nights, with lodging, tours, entrance fees, certified guides and breakfasts included. The longest one, 5 days and 4 nights, costs $16,500 MXN per couple. In between sit the rest: Gran Huasteca Package (4 days / 3 nights, $12,290 MXN per couple), Adventure Package (4 days / 3 nights, $13,390 MXN per couple). If you only want tours and no lodging, single-day tours run from $900 to $1,950 MXN per person. On top of that you pay your own travel to Xilitla, lunches and dinners, which are not included.

How many days do I need for the Huasteca Potosina?+

It depends on how much you want to see. These are the packages: Huasteca Immersion (3 days / 2 nights, $8,699 MXN per couple): The highest waterfall and the strangest garden, in three days; Gran Huasteca Package (4 days / 3 nights, $12,290 MXN per couple): The three unmissable routes of the region, in one trip; Adventure Package (4 days / 3 nights, $13,390 MXN per couple): Rafting, RZR and the waterfall jumps at Micos; Huasteca Odyssey (5 days / 4 nights, $16,500 MXN per couple): Four tour days without repeating a single place. The shortest is 3 days and 2 nights, the longest 5 days and 4 nights, and none goes below 3 days because the day you arrive already comes with a guided outing of its own. In every one of them you sleep at the same hotel in Xilitla, so you unpack once, however long the trip is.

Can I bring children? How much do they pay?+

Yes. The published package price covers two adults; from the third person on, we add what that person actually uses — a bed and a ticket for each tour. Children aged 6 to 10 pay 70% of each tour ticket and under-6s pay 50%, worked out automatically when you book. Up to 4 people sleep in one room; from the fifth on a second room is needed. Groups of more than 12 people we quote by hand on WhatsApp.

Can I change the dates of my package?+

Date changes are arranged on WhatsApp, and it helps to tell us as soon as you know: a package also holds hotel rooms, so its change and cancellation terms are the hotel's own and we confirm them to you in writing when you book. The policy published on this site covers the one-day tours: cancel 48 hours or more before and you get 100% of what you paid back; between 48 and 24 hours we keep 50%; with less than 24 hours there is no refund, but you can reschedule once at no extra cost within the following 12 months. If we are the ones who cancel — a storm, a weather alert or a site closure — you choose between a 100% refund and rescheduling free of charge. The exception is Eden in the Garden, which has its own policy, published on its page.

What is the difference between a package and buying the tours separately?+

A package puts into a single booking the same guided tours we sell individually, the nights at Hotel Paraíso Encantado in Xilitla, buffet breakfast on tour days and an itinerary already laid out day by day so the tours don't clash, plus one person coordinating the whole trip. Buying separately, you book and pay for each tour on its own and arrange the hotel yourself, which gives you more freedom over the dates. If you want the two figures side by side for your dates, message us on WhatsApp and we'll do both sums.
