Awesome experience, as usual! - This was my second trip to Monterrey and my second time using LyliAventuras for tours. I had 3 tours back to back: Pico Licos, Chipitin, and Matacanes. I rested the night before as much as I could, and started to drink fluids with electrolytes in advance. I was picked up from my Airbnb and everything went great, from breakfast to detailed instructions, and days full of amazing memories of the beautiful Nuevo Leon outdoors. The safety equipment, water shoes with good grip, the long sleeve neoprene along with instructions from the guides were very important for a safe and enjoyable experience. Then the overnight stay in the mountains and eating delicious food prepared by the guides was for sure a special treat. Next time I return to Monterrey, I will for sure use LyliAventuras again.

How to win friends on the walk. Unforgettable walk - Hello everyone, the Paseo Cañon de Matacanes was an incredible experience. on Saturday June 8. The Guides Lily and Leo. From the beginning they worry about safety first and foremost, from the previous preparations 1 week before with the induction of Rappelling in the Huasteca. Very Supportive at the Departure at the Cola de Caballo Hotel. 4 am 😴. Breakfast and important safety points. And they provided us with the Wet Suit equipment, life jacket and harness. The adventure always begins with specific instructions from the Excellent Guides Lily and Leo. In the Rappel, later in each of the canyons how you should jump. I know how to enter each cave. Especially how to jump into water of various heights and slides, etc. The ride was very fun. I highly recommend them to the company

Most beautiful canyoneering experience! - If you want to hike, rappel down waterfalls and into caves, float the river with butterflies, jump over cliffs, and water slide in the beautiful canyon, and all of it captured in awesome photos, this tour is for you! This was my second time adventuring in Monterrey in 6 months and I could not be happier with Lyli and Leo! They know the canyon inside and out and pointed out what to look out for and how to safely conquer each spot. They were very vigilant of my skills and comfort level and lead the paths I felt safe while encouraging me to try certain spots. I am a middle aged woman traveling solo and they took care of everything including hotel pick up and drop off, new and well maintained gears that they made sure were fitted to me, and all the meals (breakfast before the hike, snack lunch in the canyon, local dinner at the village, and little treat in Santiago). I am an avid hiker and also climb rocks indoor but am not a strong swimmer. I found the adventure to be challenging but always felt safe. You do need to be in a good physical health, being able to hike and not be super fearful of heights or water. We saw some companies had 45+ guests and I was glad that I was with Lyli and Leo, never rushed or pushed beyond my comfort zone. Definitely recommend water shoes with good traction/grip but other than that you don’t need to bring much. Do bring change of clothes (to leave in the truck) and tissue paper for ladies. Towns that you start and end only have outhouses. Cannot wait to go back again!

The best option for you and your family - I have been doing Matacanes for more than 10 years, and I have not experienced more trained and attentive service than that of Lyliaventuras. They were dedicated to ensuring that we enjoyed the tour safely and recorded the experience in our lives. They are super empathetic people and skilled at their work.
