Chihuahua City Option

We now have the option flying directly to Chihuahua City to begin our trips. Direct flights from Dallas (American) and Houston (Continental) go daily. This gives us an extra day in country and avoids the drives on day one and day eight. Call Dave today at 217.369.9897 for details.

Got Questions?

Click here to ask a question or get more info. One common question people have is if this is a hiking/sleep on the ground trip. Answer: No. We stay each night in small cabanas or hotels, all of which are very clean and include hot water and linens. There is always the opportunity for a good walk, but ground transport is always available.

Answer to the question everyone asks…

Yes the Copper Canyon area is safe. Virtually all of the violence is at the border. We stay far away from effected areas and have every confidence that your trip will be safe...and very enjoyable!
