Canyon TravelÂ’s Incredible Summer Sale Offers Low Rates for High Adventures.

(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 20, 2009 )
BULVERDE, TXÂ—Starting May 1, travelers can expect lower rates to high adventure courtesy of Canyon Travel. The experienced tour operator to MexicoÂ’s NW Sierra Madre recently announced savings starting at $100 dollars up to $400 dollars per person based on departure date and itinerary. These are incredible journeys into the canyon system known as Copper Canyon, supporting one of the few biomes left on the planet. Each tour features intimate encounters with a place and people left mostly untouched by outside influences

All discounts are in effect for trips trips taken May 1-September 19, 2009. Guests receive $100 dollars off the Uno Lodge Special, a five day trip featuring a stay at the remote eco-lodge perched on a canyon rim with a view of the meandering river one mile below. The nine day Canyon Explorer Itinerary is discounted $200 dollars. And the Western Canyon Explorer adventure is available during these dates for $300 off published rate, with up to $400 off per person on several specific departures listed on the website.

While the canyon floor gets hot in summer, continuous breezes and moderate temps keep the rims cool throughout the year. Transportation within the Sierra Madre is via The Chihuahua Pacific Railroad in the operatorÂ’s private car, a journey ascending 8,000 ft., skirting canyon rims, burrowing through mountain tunnels and chugging past jumbo cacti and shrubs.

The Western Canyon and Canyon Explorer trips include a stop in the colonial village of El Fuerte, with cobblestone streets, colorful markets, and a bustling ornate plaza in the center of town. Another highlight is a boat trip on the El Fuerte River, where guides trained by field scientists point out the unusual bird life and passengers disembark to see mysterious petroglyphs created by ancient artists.

GuestÂ’s retreat each evening to private lodges built to take advantage of the canyonÂ’s most breathtaking views. Regional dishes incorporating the freshest ingredients are served on white linens overlooking the lush tropical gardens of the Rio Vista Lodge, while those staying at the Uno Lodge feast by candlelight on the rim of the canyon steps from their comfortable rooms with private baths.

Copper Canyon travelers are advised to explore the canyons under the direction of guides with local experience and knowledge. With four decades of experience, and a superior reputation, itÂ’s difficult to find an operator more qualified to introduce travelers to the wonders of Copper Canyon.
