Visit Basaseachi Falls, and see the highest waterfall in Mexico on this full day Copper Canyon tour. Located inside Candameña Canyon, the widest canyon in the Copper Canyon system, you will also enjoy some great hiking through spectacular wilderness if you so choose. This private tour stops at two overlooks; the traditional one with the view of the falls and the one directly on top of the waterfall to give you a different perspective of the canyon and falls. One can hike down either side of the canyon overlooks to the other side if one is so inclined, while your driver drives around to meet you on the other side.

If you are looking for a complete and private TRIP package with all hotels, tours, transfers, train tickets and of course best logistics, then please visit our sister company Amigo Trails.

This is one of our full day tours that allows you to enjoy seeing a beautiful, off the beaten path canyon, plus you can enjoy several hours of hiking along a variety of trails of different skill levels. If you prefer not to hike, that is okay as well and your guide will be happy to drive you to both overlooks instead. Please note that there is some walking required to get to the falls from the two different parking lots. See below.

  • We recommend you bring a bottle of water

  1. 8:00am Pickup from hotel

    Please be ready and waiting in the reception area of your hotel for your guide. He will be there to meet you a few minutes before your scheduled pickup time.

  2. 8:15 - 11:00am Scenic Drive to Canyon

    You’ll be driven several hours north of Creel to the falls in Candamena Canyon during this Copper Canyon tour. Enjoy the drive as you pass through many small villages and hamlets, entering further into the canyon, ending with wonderful canyon views during the last part of the drive.

  3. 11:00 First Overlook/Hiking Options

    Our first stop is inside the National Park where you can see the falls from the front. Your guide will give you a choice of being driven to the next overlook parking area on top of the falls (some mandatory walking necessary from parking lot to top of falls) if you are a non-hiker, or if you love hiking, then you can choose to do a one hour easy hike along the rim of canyon to the other side, or there a more moderate hike to the mid section of the falls and up to the top on the other side. If you are feeling really adventurous, then you can also go from the mid section of the falls on that trail to the very bottom and have a swim in the icy waters if you so desire, then hike all the way up to the top on the other side.

  4. 2:00 - 3:30pm Stop For Lunch

    If you’ve elected to include one of our box lunches as an Add-On during your tour, your guide will have those ready for you at the top of the waterfall to enjoy after your hike. You can sit back near the rushing of the falls with it’s huge drop down the canyon and enjoy the expansive views while you dine.

    Note: If you do not include a box lunch, then there is a restaurant with varying hours of operation that you can try in the parking lot area, however, please note that dining at the restaurant will take away valuable time from your enjoyment of the park. We highly recommend you include one of the box lunches we make available for your own best experience and comfort. 

  5. 4:00pm Scenic Return Drive To Creel

    We’ll return to Creel the same way we came so you can enjoy the views from a different direction. Rest up after a good day of exercise in a gorgeous canyon, while your guide drives you safely back to your hotel.

  6. 6:00pm Drop Off At Hotel

    You’ll be dropped back at your hotel after a full day of canyon touring. Be sure to ask your guide about restaurant recommendations for dinner tonight, and be sure to check out our Face Book page in the next week or so as we’ll be posting your Basaseachi Falls day tours photos for you, your friends and family to enjoy!

Layers are always best and a light jacket or rain gear during the rainy season (July through Sept.) is also prudent. The weather can change abruptly here in the canyons at these altitudes so it is best to come prepared for a bit of everything.

If you plan to hike, do bring good hiking boots or shoes with plenty of traction as the some of the more advanced trails are steep.

Yes! This is our one full day tour that is all about the hike so bring your hiking boots and walking sticks as there are many different trails to choose from for all different skill levels.

Yes, there is a restaurant in the parking lot of the secondary overlook point, but it has varying hours and is sometimes closed unexpectedly. There are more restaurants in the town of Basaseachi, not far away, however, any time you use to visit a restaurant will take away from your total tour time and visit to this canyon so we do highly recommend you include one of the box lunches instead.

Our box lunch Add-Ons have all been specifically designed to fill you up and add a special touch to your tour that will make it more memorable. Most importantly it will save you valuable tour time so you can enjoy the canyon and waterfall longer.
