World Cup 2026: Top Places in Xilitla

One-day tour of the most important sites.

Day 1: Surrealist Gardens and More

High in the Huasteca mountains the Surrealist Gardens of Scottish artist, Edward James, is one of the most memorable places to visit anywhere in Mexico. This trip takes ample advantage of the nearby magical town of Xilitla, with a stop to eat, and plenty of time to explore.

Want to take in one of the most impressive natural phenomena anywhere in the hemisphere? The Sotano de las Huahuas is an overwhelming spectacle of song birds spiraling overhead in a nightly ritual. White-collared swifts emerge at dusk from a deep cave. Their presentation moves hearts, and reassures visitors that this was exactly the right place to be.
