Take a train ride to another world... the world of Copper Canyon, a network of several major canyons combined with a series of lesser canyons. Cutting across the Sierra Madre in the Mexican state of Chihuahua, the Barranca del Cobre (Copper Canyon) area is larger than the Grand Canyon of Arizona. It is rugged and remote; much of it accessible only by train. The Train, which travels between Los Mochis and Chihuahua City, will take you from cactus and sagebrush to cedar and pine...and from your window you may marvel at cascading waterfalls and breathtaking views of the canyons. Along the way you can visit natural wonders and rustic villages. You will be charmed by the shy but warm Tarahumara people, the native inhabitants of Copper Canyon famous for their dancing and running and for their finely crafted baskets and wood carvings. All along your journey, you will be welcomed to many gracious and lovely hotels with a charm and hospitality reminiscent of yesteryear. Never before has it been so simple to customize and package FIT (Foreign Independent Travel) programs to this unique and diverse destination. While organized group travel is certainly a viable and comfortable option, the majority of visitors to this region are independent tourists who wish to travel at their own time and at their own pace. It is with this in mind that Pan American Tours, pioneers in package tours through the Copper Canyon area since 1961, invite you to immerse yourself in the experience of Copper Canyon.
