Did you ever dream about going on an Indiana Jones-type adventure where you’re trekking through the jungle to rarely seen ruins of an ancient civilization? Apparently, so did the folks at Austin-Lehman Adventures when they put together their exotic trip to Chiapas, one of the most least-visited regions of Mexico. Widely considered among the most geographically stunning travel experiences to be found in the Americas, this “Best Of” Adventure Vacation combines sightseeing and multi-sports activities. Boat, bike and hike through alpine forests and steamy lowland jungle rife with colorful birds and howler monkeys. Wander into tiny cobblestone villages and dramatic archeological ruins such as Bonampak, the ancient Mayan power center of Palenque. A founding member of the travel consortium Trusted Adventures, Austin-Lehman specializes in active, upscale adventures. Despite its remote location, Chiapas is no exception with accommodations including a modern 5-star hotel, a cozy jungle eco-resort and a restored 17th-century hacienda. Packages include gourmet-quality meals, ground transportation, sports equipment and expert guides. Don’t forget to pack your Indy hat.
