Monarch Butterflies
(November to March)
The amazing, the fascinating, the spiritual experience of visiting the Monarch Butterflies’ overwintering colonies. See whirlwinds of millions of orange butterflies inhabiting one small corner of the beautiful conifer forest of eastern Michoacan.
Every year, all the Monarch Butterflies of North America (east of the Rock Mountains) fly thousands of miles to all congregate in one forest in central Mexico. Our guides have specialized knowledge on the biology of the monarch, its conservation and local beliefs about the migration.
Avoid the cold temperatures in the mountains and stay at a close-by tropical oasis: Agua Blanca.
