Sierra Madre Colonial Villages in ‘El Rosario’ from Mazatlan
You’ll feel like Indiana Jones searching for the Holy Grail when you embark on the Mazatlan El Rosario Golden Tour. Instead of looking for a gold chalet, though, your tour will culminate with a trip to a golden altar at Cathedral of Our Lady of Rosary. Like Indiana Jones, your trip isn’t just about the gold, though. You’ll also see a Spanish cemetery, ancient ruins, and local art. You’ll even walk around the villages, getting to see how people live. It’s no wonder people say this is one of the best Mazatlan excursions around!
And where will you go during your Mazatlan El Rosario Golden Tour? This tour packs three villages in one trip. You’ll visit El Huajote and El Tablon Viejo before embarking on your El Rosario Mazatlan excursion. During your trip, you’ll watch local artisans make fine pottery, palm leaf furniture, and more, and you’ll visit a museum and other local sights, including the gold hand-crafted altarpiece at Our Lady of Rosary. Many say this alone is worth the trip. Bring your camera because you will hit lots of landmarks during the Mazatlan El Rosario Golden Tour.
And bring your appetite, too. There will be an optional lunch at El Yauco Restaurant, and it’s delicious. You’ll enjoy some authentic cuisine while talking to other tourists about everything you’ve seen. Don’t be surprised if everyone talks about the magical altar.
It’s hard to beat the Mazatlan El Rosario Golden Tour. Get your spot today, so you can see the golden altar and more!
