If you&rsquo;re looking for a change of pace from Mexico&rsquo;s historical ruins and amazing cenotes, consider a full day trip to the mystical mountain town of Tepoztlan.

We&rsquo;ll start our adventure with an early pick up from the meeting point or your accommodation with a brief stop at Cuernavaca. While there, we&rsquo;ll visit the Cuernavaca Cathedral, one of the oldest churches in the country. We&rsquo;ll quickly admire the colonial architecture and colorful frescoes before boarding our comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and making our way to Tepoztlan.
