ITS TIME TO LIVE OUT YOUR MEXICAN FOOD FANTASIES. TEQUILA, BURRITOS, NACHOS, TACOS... IS YOUR MOUTH WATERING YET?
Mexico is a perfect destination of ours. Rich in culture, stunning scenery, colourful markets, great local transport, friendly people and the archaeological remnants of the great empires of the Aztecs, Toltecs and Mayas.
Our overland journey begins in Mexico City, where the colour and vibrancy of this bustling city will surely get you in the mood for our adventure. We visit the ‘can’t miss’ ruins at Teotihuacan before visiting the beautiful colonial cities of Puebla and Oaxaca. Next is the Zapotec ruins of Monte Alban before we come to the wonderful town of San Cristobel de Las Casas, home of the descendents of the ancient Maya. Further on are their ancestral ruins at Palenque. The ‘White City’ – Merida is our gateway to the state of Yucatan, the stunning Chichen Itza ruins and finally the beautiful blue waters and sandy beaches of the Caribbean coast.
