Planning your dream trip down Mexico way

March 9, 2018 0 comments Article Beach, City, Things to do

Mexico is a fascinating Latin American country that boasts a fantastic location between north and south, an incredibly rich culture and of course fantastic locations the length and breadth of the country. If you are thinking about a holiday that’s somewhere just a little bit more exotic and exciting that the usual packages, then Mexico could be just the ticket.

With hundreds of thousands of tourists from all around the world descending on the country every year, tourism is a big part of the Mexican economy, so it is hardly surprising that they’re so good at it. From all-inclusive luxury resorts to backpacker-friendly hostels, with so many attractions to be found, this country pleases people from all walks of life. So think about planning your next adventure to Mexico.

Getting there

Practically speaking, getting to Mexico is simple since there are of course plenty of international flights operating in and out of its airports. The biggest of these is Mexico City International Airport, followed by Cancún International Airport. With flights jetting off all over the world, as well as internal domestic and an extensive and efficient bus service, getting to Mexico and around it, is simple.

As we’ve already mentioned here Mexico City is a great jumping off point for exploring the interior of the country since it is pretty central. However, if it is the coast that you’re after, Cancún is a safe bet since it is located in the south-eastern tip of the country on the Atlantic coast.

Time of year

Thanks to its Central American location, Mexico is well-known for having a lovely and warm climate, which means that no matter what time of the year you decide to visit, you’re sure to get lucky with the weather.

The hottest months of the year are of course during the summer, and around the coastlines this can be really stifling. However inland and at higher elevations like for Mexico City, temperatures are more bearable. We recommend visiting during springtime or during the autumn months since the weather will still be absolutely fantastic without being too hot!

The areas

Since Mexico has got so many attractions, pretty much anywhere you go is going to be a delight, although there are some destinations that have firmly established themselves as tourist favourites. Aside from Mexico City and Cancún, other hot spots include Oaxaca which is found in the south-west of the country. Located 5000 feet above sea level, and surrounded by mountains, it is a great place to immerse yourself in traditional Mexican culture and historical sites.

Guadalajara is another inland city that is well worth a visit – it is from here that mariachi and tequila both come from, so as you can imagine, it is a party city! With a vibrant street culture, this major city located in the west, is another jewel of Mexico.

With so many amazing destinations to choose from, investigate flights to Mexico, look out for the best flight deals and plan your trip around them if you are unsure about where to head to. Wherever you pick to go is sure to be unforgettable.

What you’re looking for

Trips to Mexico range from full on luxury with decadent 5 star resorts, to budget with backpacking, buses and hostels. And choosing what kind of holiday would suit you best, all comes down to your own tastes and price point.

For relaxing beach holidays that take in some of the fascinating culture of the country too, staying in an all-inclusive resort is a wonderful choice. Everything will be taken care of, and you can easily plan day trips away from the beach to visit some amazing Mexican sites. When it comes to more budget trips, there are plenty of hostels to choose from, and by travelling light with a backpack, you can take advantage of the great bus system to discover more of the country.

There is so much to discover in Mexico from the food, to the culture, the sites, the people and more, so planning your dream trip will be pretty straightforward. We recommend searching out a good hotel as your base to ensure great food, sumptuous accommodation and of course a prize location. We came across some deals on accommodation for Hilton hotels, so if you want to book your stay with a well-trusted brand, we really recommend checking them out in order to see if you can save. Hilton is obviously a global brand, and since they’ve got hotels in 6 different locations around Mexico, meaning you can easily pick the right destination for you.

So start getting organised and plan a dream trip to Mexico for an unforgettable holiday that’ll let you take in ancient sites, an incredible culture, and of course some sun, sea and sand!
