Hacienda Private Tour to Chautla Castle and Watch Magic Fireflies

Illuminate your day with the Hacienda Tour. Witness the magical dance of thousands of radiant fireflies, stroll in peaceful lovely gardens and the extraordinary Hacienda Chautla, and unveil the extraction process of aromatic plants in a unique community lavender farm.

Meet your guide at your accommodation in Mexico City. On the way to the Ex-Hacienda Chautla in Puebla, observe a picturesque change of landscapes with mountains, forests, plains, and volcanoes passing by.

You will arrive at Ex-Hacienda Chautla, roam along multiple peaceful forest trails in its beautiful English-style gardens. Afterward, in the center of an artificial lake, the 19th-century Gillow Castle invites you to enter its embrace. Feel how life was 100 years ago fully!

Our adventure continues as we venture to a local farm to unveil the extraction process of essential oils, coming from aromatic plants such as lavender, rosemary, and pine. This unique community project, fostering abundant harvests year after year is a harmonious collaboration of small landowners.

We will finish our adventure at Santa Rita Sanctuary where we can marvel with thousands of luminescent fireflies illuminate the night sky in a magical dance.

The night ends with you relaxing in our vehicle and enjoying the way back to Mexico City.
