Mexico
Fiestas, Frida and Maya mystery




Steamy jungles, historic architecture and more than 10,000km of coastline – Mexico is a feverish dream that delivers vivid experience after experience. Head to Oaxaca’s cloud forests, explore the Yucatán’s Maya temples, pristine beaches and icy-blue cenotes, or simply gorge yourself on regional Mexican food. Whichever Mexican adventure you choose, you can be assured of a warm welcome from Los Mexicanos – and probably an invite to a fiesta or four.
