Board the legendary Chepe Express train and plunge into the Sierra Madre's Copper Canyon — four times the size of the Grand Canyon — through tunnels, sky-high bridges, and pine-draped ravines. A once-in-a-lifetime rail odyssey that rivals any on earth.
What to expect
Depart Los Mochis (30 min from port) and climb into the Sierra Madre aboard a gleaming Primera Express coach with panoramic windows. The route crosses 37 bridges and burrows through 86 tunnels, with stops at Divisadero for vertiginous canyon views. A Rarámuri artisan market awaits at the rim, and a ranch-style lunch is served before the return descent through the copper-hued gorges at golden hour.
Good to know
This is an 11–12 hour day — confirm your ship's all-aboard time before booking. Pre-book Primera Express seats directly on chepe.mx well in advance, as they sell out. Transfer from port to Los Mochis station takes ~30 minutes by private car.
