Embark on a full-day tour of three traditional villages. Your tour begins as your board your transportation for a scenic drive into the foothills of the rugged Sierra Madre. Your first stop is a small brick yard (if open), where you'll witness demonstrations on adobe brick making. You'll continue to the town of Concordia, founded in 1550, famed for its furniture, handmade pottery, and magnificent Baroque church. Next on your itinerary is Copala, a former gold-mining town founded in 1565. You're free to wander the narrow, cobbled streets, survey the old colonial houses and visit the 16th-century stone church.
