- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2024
- In this weeks travel vlog our RV Mexico adventure continues as we make our way to San Cristobal de Las Casas, a beautiful Pueblo Magico high in the Chiapas mountains known for its rich history and culture. We heard a lot of great things about San Cristobal and are happy to say it did not disappoint. Our week here was packed with fun, including a coffee tasting, trying the best hot chocolate ever, eating tons of super tasty and affordable Mexican food, and exploring the best artisan market we've visited in Mexico!

I'm Mexican and I've been living in San Cristóbal for almost 15 years. I was invited to serve as a tourist guide because I'm welcoming a group of people coming from USA that a friend of mine is bringing up to Chiapas this summer. And eventhough I speak a little bit of English I need more useful vocabulary, phrases and expresions in order to show them the city and the interestings landmarks around it. That's why I found this video incredibly helpful to prepare myself to receive my beloved guests. Thank you very much. Greetings and blessings from San Cristóbal de las Casas.
Wow Liz’s Spanish has gotten so much better, it’s almost fluent. Great vid.
Haha I didn't speak much in older videos, but my Spanish was always pretty good. I taught and lived in Spain for three months. - Liz
Oh wow can’t wait for the next episode. Why am I thinking your first child will be Mexican? Hahahahaha You have made Mexico a place for all to visit because of your channel. Have a good week. ❤️🇨🇦❤️ Cheers!!!
Haha glad you're looking forward to it and Mexico is place you want to visit now!

Sounds like a lovely experience! We've heard Puerto Morelos is lovely. We feel very thankful to travel Mexico like this. - Liz

Glad to hear you enjoyed the San Cris vlog!
Thank you for watching! - Dennis ✌️
Very good vídeo. Made with class and education. Congratulations.
Thank you!
We loved this video! Especially learning about pox & the cacao bean(?) info & drinks! It was super interesting! Nice to know you work out & to get a glimpse of that. We’ve often wondered how you stay in shape since you’re always eating yummy food. ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it Beth! It was a fun video to make!
Well done guys!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it - Liz
LOVE this video!! All of this was #1 on our bucket list. And as you have shown in the video, everything is just as beautiful as we thought it would be! So fun! Holy Cow the shopping!
It is our neighboring state and we definitely need to get there soon. Can't wait to see what you find next!
Yes you will enjoy it I think Darla! It's so beautiful and unique. It's a long drive from Hualtulco but worth the effort to get there. - liz
Hi Liz and Dennis! I enjoyed your video it was very good. I didn’t have a favorite part in the video. It was nice to learn everything about that part of Mexico.
It was good to see the food they have there. The soups you ate they looked good. I liked the drinks you made and the one you had at the end Liz looked really good. Thank you so much for this video.
Can’t wait until next weeks video. Stay safe and safe travels.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching as always Sherri 😊
Beatiful San Cristobal de las Casas!
It is a beautiful city - Liz
Love your show😊😊😊
Thank you Chris!
Ah crap..., sounds and looks awesome..... I shoulda seen your video before I made reservations going from Huatulco to north bound. You guys are wonderful... Next visit....
North bound? Headed to oaxaca? We've heard that drive is a doozy! Safe travels hopefully you can return to San Cristobal
Oh my! The last scene of the outtakes "Sirius Black, we're here for you"! I laughed so hard!!! Thanks for sharing that!
🤣 You're welcome! I wish we would have got the dog on video it was crazy looking! - Dennis
I enjoy seeing peoples happiness !!!! This was a wonderful virtual tour y'all. I love me some Mexico. Amazing food,culture,people and country. Never been disappointed everytime ive been there.😀🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩
🙌 Thanks for watching Tremaine! We're stoked you enjoyed it! - Dennis
You guys make the most awesome videos, thanks for sharing, Dennis you look dangerous with that coral snake hat 🐍🎩👍
I have seen a few vlogs from San Cris recently. You always bring something new to the table. I loved the coffee and pox tastings. Both were interesting and informative (and inspiring - I want to go!). Thanks for another great video. I have pined all your restaurants and on my map app. Thanks and safe travels!
Awesome so glad you saved the spots and enjoyed this video!
San Cris is on my shortlist of cities to retire to. Thank you so much. Your video was much more informative, thought out, and visually appealing than the other San Cris videos I have watched. I have subscribed and look forward to more from your channel.
That's awesome! Glad you enjoyed and found it helpful - Liz
Rocked It thanks
Ugh!! 😲 Denis, that cocktail looked A Maze Ing!! Can't wait to try something like that!! - Mike
It was delicious! Hopefully we will still have some of those bottles Liz stuffed in her purse next time we run into y'all. 🤣 - Dennis
That was quite the grip of bottles 😏💥🥂
Great video guys. Be safe out there. Dan - Oklahoma’s Tumbleweeds
Thank you, you too!
ORGANIC. YES
Watching your videos we can still perceive the colonial Spanish era, the architecture and culture is surprisingly still alive.
Awesome!!! The street market was my favorite, but El Secreto was inviting (not sure I would be able to afford, hahaha). Hugs guys!!
There's plenty of more affordable places to dine there!
Next time you need to try a French pastry shop called Ooo La La in the center of town. Highly recommend!!
Love your hat
Los estoy viendo a la 1 am y me dio tanta hambre! A mi me encanta el mole de olla! es una comida muy casera. No se prepara muy frecuentemente, lo hacemos cuando hace frío. Y los tamales, y el café y el chocolate. Please put a warning when you are going to eat so delicious please, so I don't watch is at midnight😉. Un abrazo y hasta luego!!
Wish I could get a taste of all of those:)
All of the food and drinks were so yummy!
Great video! One of the best! I looked at my wife and asked “when are we going?”
Haha that's awesome!
👍 for Mexico Monday. Bad thing, Chris was “Jonesing” for some coffee after watching. Some of that Pox looked kind of like Mexican moonshine to me. You guys saying you eat a bunch is an understatement.
It's JUST like Mexican moonshine. Dennis did a bit on that but it was such a long video to begin with we didn't keep it in. Glad you enjoyed this and other Mexico Monday videos
Very Nice vídeo guys from a mexican living in México near to chiapas.
Gracias!
Thank you and Hugs
Thanks Gwen! ❤️
Love that hat
🤠👏
Great video. Noticed Dennis was wearing his birthday hat.
Don't like snakes but it is a good looking hat. 🏝 🏜
Thanks Diego! - Dennis ✌️
Like a punch in your mouth, but in a good way! 😁 Everything looked so tasty. I appreciate that you eat (and drink) a variety of things and do all sorts of activities. San Cris seems a great place to visit! ☕️
Glad you enjoy the varieties of our travels! San cris is a wonderful place to visit. - Liz
Me gustan su videos son personas que disfrutan la diversidad de la comida en México y sus lugares de la cultura
De nuestros antepasados las playas
Y constumbres bienvenidos a nuestro país
¡Gracias! Nos alegra que disfrutes de nuestros videos :) - Liz
Great stuff. If I recall you were heading to Mazatlan to take the ferry to La Paz. I would recommend two nights on Stone Island and then two nights at Mar-A-Villa on the north end, at the least. Bien Viaje.
Thanks for the tips!
Muy bien yo soy de chiapas
Hi, i am from sancristobal, yes is beutifull😍
I hope you guys visit the waterfalls so chiflon
Not this time. But we've heard they are wonderful!
I bring my electric kettle with me everywhere. I don't do anything before my coffee in the morning ever. If I do I don't feel right and yes I am grumpy as well.
Hahaha
You guys know how to live life.
Delicious soups d@#m!!!!!! And I just eating processed food in NYC.
I hope you guys go through Puebla on the way back! It’s so beautiful and colonial and so many little towns around the city worth the visit like Cholula with the largest pyramid in the world (the widest at least), the beautiful hilltop town of Atlixco with its eternal spring temps and views of the volcanoes, the nearby town of Chipilo which was founded by northern Italian immigrants where they still speak Veneto and the gastronomic corridor downtown has all the amazing Italian food you can ask for and their gelato is orgasmic! Also the town of Tlaxcala and Val’Quirico and some haciendas like Chautla!
I hope you guys visit the Chiapas coffee plantations! They’re so beautiful most were built by German immigrants (whose descendants still own them) and it’s amazing to see these German structures in the Chiapas jungles and mountains!
Have an amazing journey and thanks for letting us follow you through my beautiful Mexico! :)
Wow you've traveled around! We do plan to return to Puebla on future visits. Its the perfect stop off point and hope to visit Atlixco, Chipilo, and others around there but not this trip. We have been to Puebla and Cholula three times now though ruclips.net/video/9YBIADyXfTQ/видео.html
That is an amazing hat ( orange stripe sets it off ), where did you get it ?
Thank you! I found it at a shop in San Miguel de Allende. - Dennis
Show Your Fur Baby More! Hugs To Everyone!!
Hah we try! Our camera doesn't capture inside the RV well. - Liz
We live in Morelia and I am going to that Pox Bar as soon as we both get vaccinated - June!
Sweet, You're gonna love it! - Dennis 🍻
Sweet Hat Dennis!
-Thomas
Girl your hair is getting so long and looking so good. I see Dennis' Español hasn't improved 😅🤣😂🤪. So happy to see you both happy. We are freezing our butts off headed to West Yellowstone Montana for 3 months.
So close to 50k...yall are gonna be bigger than us soon.
~Stacy~
I know Liz, when I go to mexico, the topes they are not mark, so I go flying, but it supposed to slow you down when you are getting to e town, But PLEASE MARK THE TOPES!! hahaha.
Yessss
The rural places are filled with small towns or farms. The highway cuts their communities and they must cross (sometimes with animals) throughout the day. The topes slow traffic a bit to help make it a little safer. Still, many locals are hit by cars every year. It's a pain, but I hope this info makes them a little less painful. Love ypur videos.
5 eagles content and getting better !!
Haha thank you!
Can you talk about how you find rv parks? do you park other places.Also, do you think its better to rv or backpack? A what are the pros and cons with backpackers would be good.
Pros and cons to both. Accomodations are pretty cheap I. Mexico but touristy spots nightly stays can be expensive. We can cook when we want and we have all of our things (and cats with us). Backpacking you'd have to rent a car to get around or bus. We have our vehicle with us. However driving and rv through Mexico is tough. Mexico's roads were not built for big vehicles like this. - Liz
Chocolate + Booze. A winning combination.
Couldn't agree more!
Long ago, that's where I ate my first tamales and the waiter had to show me hoe to unwrap the banana leaves.
That's AWESOME! I remember my first tamale too. My grandmother's friend made some for us. I remember thinking " Am I supposed to eat the husk?!" LOL - Dennis 🤦♂️
luv the way you cover these paces - except San Cristoval de las Casas. you missed one of the world's finest places to find amber. the world second largest amber mines are in Simojovel - just a 40-kilometer drive - but the owners from Simojovel have made a fantastic Museum / retail store in San Cristoval de las Casas. I know about it as I used to buy amber from the mother of the guy that set up the business in San Crristoval - if you ever get a chance ask for
Luis Alonso Zuñiga and mention his mother Sister Lilia. He remembered me from 35 years ago when I first found the amber in Mexico - now it is a huge industry employing 32,000 people just in Chiapas. and Mexican amber is now an important commodity in Mexico
Thanks, yeah there is a lot of San Cris that we missed. Next time! - Dennis
🙂
Maybe you should visit cuetzalan puebla
Thanks for the suggestion! We will put it on the list. - Dennis ✌️
Taxco, guerrero its beutiful
We want to go! But the road in and out isn't made for an RV. There is no where to park! We'll have to go back in just a car in the future. - Liz
