Overview of your Morelia tour:

The monarch butterflies are amazing little insects that travel over 4 thousand miles, from the Rocky Mountains in the US and Canada to the forests in Michoacán making them the only migration of insects in the continent. We will be going thru the forests of the sanctuary learning about their journey, reproduction and life stages. The clusters of butterflies at noon come to life and start flying from the trees surrounding you in a cloud of orange and black. We'll have time to admire them and return with the sound of their wings in our soul.

Your Morelia tour itinerary

The pick up starts at 08:30 from your hotel and since we will be walking in the mountain I suggest you bring very comfortable walking shoes, a warm jacket and bottled water (a refill is great, so we don't use unnecessary plastic). From Morelia it is a 2. 5 hrs drive, in which I will tell you the stories, and the legend of this beautiful migration. - After arriving at the bottom of the mountain, we'll have some time to adjust to the altitude, drink some water and get ready to walk. It will depend on the season, but approx. the walk is 1km. You have the option of walking or hiring a horse to take you up. - Once we arrive to the clusters, we'll have around 30 mins to be at the center of the butterflies in silence and respecting this area. - After this wonderful experience, we'll walk down to enjoy our lunch with local cuisine and head back to your hotel in Morelia, arriving approx. at 19:00 hrs.
