As a result, most travelers opt to stay in the towns of <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Xilitla Hotels\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/xilitla-hotels\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Xilitla<\/a> or <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Ciudad Valles Mexico\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/ciudad-valles-mexico\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Ciudad Valles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"San Luis Potosi Car Rental\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/san-luis-potosi-car-rental\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">rent a car to explore Huasteca Potosina<\/a><\/strong> your options for places to stay near The Cave of Swallows will expand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you reserve early enough, you can <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Hostal Aquismon\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/hostal-aquismon\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">book a stay at this reasonably priced accommodation<\/a><\/strong> in Aquismon. I highly recommend this option in order to be as close as possible to Sotano de las Golondrinas (an important consideration when the wake-up time is before dawn).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, there is <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Gran Tamoanchan Hotel\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/gran-tamoanchan-hotel\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">this boutique hotel<\/a><\/strong> located just 15 minutes away.

While it&#8217;s possible to see some birds taking flight from the cave after the sun rises, the prime time to arrive is before sunrise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you arrive in Aquismon, follow the <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/BnCJCX1fZAPfhcCU6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Maps location<\/a> to Sotano de las Golondrinas. As you approach the ticket booth, I recommend someone in your group gets in line to purchase tickets while the driver parks along the side of the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"694\" src=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-1024x694.jpg\" alt=\"Manmade rock steps with a wooden handrail lead you to Sotano de la Golondrinas in San Luis Potosi, Mexico.\" class=\"wp-image-8128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-1024x694.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-700x474.jpg 700w, https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-250x169.jpg 250w, https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-768x520.jpg 768w, https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps-150x102.jpg 150w, https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/sotano-de-las-golondrinas-steps.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The path to the cave requires descending nearly 600 steps. While it&#8217;s an easy descent on the manmade stairs, you&#8217;ll need to be careful navigating the possibly slippery stone steps in the dim morning light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind, the climb up the stairs to exit the Cave of Swallows is steep, but you can take your time. Plus you&#8217;ll have the morning light to illuminate the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two viewpoints for the cave. I recommend going just a little further to the second mirador. I found the cave to be more open and the view more impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will likely be a large crowd of people standing on the rock behind the cave. And standing on the platform are guides that use a harness to allow visitors to look over the edge of the cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no cost, but the guides work for tips so please be aware of their time and use of their equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"639\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/cave-of-swallows-639x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A man and a woman lean over the edge of The Cave of Swallows with climbing robes tied around their waists.

A quick search shows a few tours of The Cave of Swallows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Surrealist Garden Huahuas Tour\" href=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/recommends\/surrealist-garden-huahuas-tour\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">you can book this tour<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0which combines a visit to the Surrealist Garden in Xilitla and a different cave similar to The Cave of Swallows called Sotano de las Huahuas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Nearby Caves of Mantetzulel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the less visited places in Huasteca Potosina is the Caves of Mantetzulel, also located near Aquismon. In fact, if you have a car and the time I recommend making a small detour to explore these caves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three caves in Mantezulel &#8211; Cueva de la Luz del Sol, Cueva del Aguacatillo, and Grutas del Espiritu Santo. This series of caves is located just north of Aquismon and would make for a great stop after touring The Cave of Swallows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"655\" src=\"https:\/\/culturestraveled.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/cuevas-mantetzulel-huasteca-potosina-1024x655.jpg\" alt=\"A view from inside Cueva Mantetzulel in Huasteca Potosina.
