Description
The 42-hectare land, filled with lush jungle, agricultural products, crystal-clear rivers, majestic wildlife, and beautiful waterfalls, offers much to explore and provides us with fruits and vegetables to harvest.
Tierra Prometida is an ecotourism, agroecology, and conservation project located in the heart of the Chiapas rainforest. Here, we grow our own food, protect biodiversity, share time with the local community, and create a learning space in contact with nature.
The experience combines community life, connection with the jungle, and active participation in sustainability projects.
"SAGRADA FAMILIA": This area is located at the entrance to the jungle and features state-of-the-art facilities and buildings. Here, your host is a warm and fun Mexican family who runs the farm and produces food for self-sufficiency. This space offers an omnivorous diet, but is also open to vegetarian options. Important: They only speak Spanish!
