One of our MUST SEE stops, we visited the winter home of MILLIONS of Monarch Butterflies before they fly back North. Just a short drive from Valle de Bravo, a Pueblo Magico located west of Mexico City.
An experience of a lifetime, we rode horseback up into the mountains to over 9,000ft above sea level to see the Monarch winter home for ourselves. At just $25 total for the two of us, it is an excellent value for such a unique experience! Our visit to Valle de Bravo was too big for one video, so check out PART 1 as we paraglided over the beatiful city and lake of Valle de Bravo: https://youtu.be/1stAW32DUSI
