Transfer from Chihuahua to Creel with a visit to the Mennonite Museum - QM*

During the journey, we will enjoy a unique cultural experience by visiting a Mennonite museum. There, you will have the opportunity to learn firsthand about their customs, lifestyle, and history—discovering one of the most fascinating and reserved communities in the country.

Note:
On Sundays and public holidays, due to the religious traditions and customs of the Mennonite community, places such as the Mennonite Museum and other sites are usually closed. For this reason, on those days we offer an alternative tour that includes a panoramic visit to the region's apple orchards and a culinary experience at an authentic Mennonite artisanal pizzeria. It’s a wonderful way to continue enjoying the cultural and culinary richness of the area.

Notice regarding space for children:
We understand how important it is to travel comfortably. If you are traveling with children taller than one meter, we kindly ask you to inform us in advance. This will allow us to allocate the appropriate space on the transportation unit. Otherwise, we may need to make last-minute adjustments and charge an additional fee for the extra seat required, to ensure everyone's comfort during the trip.

Free Day at Creel

Secret information: upon booking this itinerary the Travel Designer reveals additional information with tips.

Creel is a charming "Pueblo Mágico" nestled high in the Sierra Madre Occidental, and one of the most iconic destinations along the Chepe train route through the Copper Canyon. Founded in 1907 on what was once a Tarahumara ranch known as Nariachi, this picturesque town offers stunning natural surroundings and a deep connection to the Rarámuri culture.

During your free day, you can walk from your hotel to the town center to explore local handicraft shops, traditional restaurants, and experience the everyday life of this mountain community. If time allows, you may also want to visit nearby attractions such as Cusárare Waterfall, Lake Arareko, or the majestic Basaseachi Waterfall.

Creel is ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, horseback riding, biking, or ATV tours. If you’d like to enrich your day with an optional activity, we recommend speaking with your travel agent to learn about the available experiences.
