Monarch Butterflies

The incredible, fascinating spiritual experience of visiting the wintering colonies of Monarch Butterflies. See the whirlwinds of millions of orange butterflies that inhabit a small corner of the beautiful coniferous forest of eastern Michoacán. Every year, all the monarch butterflies in North America (east of the Rocky Mountains) fly thousands of miles to congregate in a forest in central Mexico. Our guides have specialized knowledge about monarch biology, conservation, and local beliefs about migration.

Avoid the cold temperatures in the mountains and stay in a nearby tropical oasis: Agua Blanca.
