About This Experience

Taxco is one of the most charming Magical Towns in Mexico, a city suspended in time among the mountains of Guerrero state, world-renowned for being the capital of silver. Its winding cobblestone streets, white houses with red tile roofs, and the majestic Santa Prisca Cathedral —a masterpiece of 18th-century Churrigueresque baroque, considered one of the most beautiful cathedrals in America— make Taxco a fairy-tale setting. The workshops of artisanal silver craftsmen, where entire families work silver following age-old traditions, are unique in the world. Riding the cable car to view the town from the heights at sunset is simply magical.
