Start the trip with a bang in the lively historic center of Monterrey. Kick-off the night with some cervezas and tequila shots at La Embajada, a popular cantina bar. After that, head to El Callejón de los Rumberos, a vibrant bar that offers live music and salsa dancing. End the night at La Tumba, a club that plays the best Latin tunes.
Get your adrenaline pumping with a day trip to Parque Nacional Cumbres de Monterrey, a natural park where you can hike, zip line and rappel in a stunning mountain setting. Once you’ve worked up a sweat, head to El Rey Sol Spa to soothe your muscles and relax. This luxurious spa offers a variety of services including massages and hydrotherapy.
Check out the local cuisine with a food tour of downtown Monterrey. Start at Mercado Juárez, a bustling market with over 200 vendors offering a variety of treats from tacos to churros. Try the famous Al Pastor tacos at El Gran Pastor and finish the night with some high-quality steaks at El Gaucho.
If you have more time, check out the Paseo Santa Lucia, a man-made river that takes you through the city on a colorful boat. For those with less time, skip the adventure park and spend more time bar hopping. Make sure to stay hydrated and take cash as some places do not accept cards.
