From
El Paso to the start of the canyon is a REAL long ways done
by Bus which is not only a waste of good travel time but VERY
BORING as well. You for sure want to start and end you Copper
Canyon tour on the West side of the Sierra Madres were all the
beautiful scenery is not mile after mile dried up desert with
nothing to see coming in from El Paso side on a BUS ! Next be
sure and know where you are going!
I see some tours that start in El Paso that are 8 nights long
but only "ONE " of the "8" nights are spent
in the Copper Canyon and all the rest are in places way out
of the canyon system in places like El Fuerte and be sure
not to let this happen to you. There are other tours that
offer you lodging that at it's best is third class with no Electricity
or running water. I have seen some of the pictures of there
so called lodges and when I went there to see them in person
it looked like the front of the hotels in old western movies
with very little behind the front and what was there I wouldn't
have my clients staying there. Be sure you get pictures of the
inside before you go there.
Clients also ask about native guides once you are there.
Native guides are not at all the lodges that you will visit
as well as the Tarahumara Indians some right outside the lodges
were you can buy there wares. If you really want to enjoy your
Copper Canyon visit stay away from the large tour companies
and go with my type of tours that all very personable with small
groups.
Camp David in Sinaloa Mexico is a once in a life time treat.
It is like no other lodge you've ever seen. Enjoy some of the
most beautiful sights and surroundings and the true atmosphere
of Mexico, while you still enjoy many of the comforts of home.
Camp David is clean, relaxing, quiet and surrounded by lots
of trees and flowers. |
