Ex-Hacienda of Chautla is located in the municipality of San Salvador el Verde, in Puebla, about 80 km (50 miles) from Puebla and 120 km (75 miles) from Mexico City. You can get there by car, by bus, or by tour. If you go by car, you can take the highway Mexico-Puebla and exit at San Martin Texmelucan. Then, you can follow the signs to Chautla. If you go by bus, take a bus from Puebla or Mexico City to San Martin Texmelucan. Then, take a taxi or a local bus to Chautla. If you are new or visiting Mexico, it’s best to book a tour from Puebla or Mexico City that includes transportation, entrance fees, and a guide.
Upon arrival at the hacienda, head to the office to see available activities. A Spanish-language tour of the springs runs hourly from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. You can also explore the grounds on your own and enjoy things like hiking, fishing, horseback riding, zip-lining, and biking.
Don’t miss the museum, chapel, mill, and textile factory. For an extended stay, cabins and a camping area are available.
