Top Destinations:

Cabo San Lucas is the top beach destination in Mexico.  You can be as active as you like and spent your days basking in the sun or making the most of the crystal-clear waters. Snorkel, dive, swim or fish your days away. You can also play golf, indulge in a spa session or simply stroll along the golden sand.

No trip to Mexico would be complete until you’ve paid homage to the ancient pyramids of Teotihuacan. Here you’ll find the largest pyramid in Mexico – the Pyramid of the Sun.

The most famous of all the Mayan cities, Chichen Itza,  is one of the Seven New Wonders of the World. You can go for a day trip from Merida or spent a few days there learning about the history of this epic site.

Above I said Mexicans spoke Spanish and “a number of indigenous languages”? You may have wondered why I didn’t name them – that’s because there are 68!

Mexican children do not get their presents on Christmas Day, they wait until the 6^th January, the day the Three Wise Men arrived.
