Museum of the Desert Trip

At the time you have chosen, we will pick you up from your hotel in Monterrey. Once in the minibus, we will drive for about one and a half hours to the wonderful city of Saltillo, where we stop at the Desert Museum.

We will get out of the vehicle at the beautiful Parque de las Maravillas park and start a tour of this wonderful museum with so much history. We will discover the great relevance it has with sciences such as geology, anthropology, paleontology, and biology. As we stroll through the venue, we will journey through time and learn all about our planet's past.

Together with the guide, we will tour the facilities and visit the various exhibitions of the Desert Museum. We will discover amazing fossils of dinosaurs, marine animals, and even humans, and learn about the planet's evolution since the beginning of time.

At the end of the museum visit we will return to the minibus and take you back to your hotel in Monterrey.
