Mexico is a vibrant country known for its endless adventure, enriching culture & breathtaking scenery. Boasting more than 6,000 miles of coastline and one of the most booming capitals in Latin America, Mexico attracts thrill seekers, foodies, history-lovers, sun worshippers & beach bums! From the cobblestoned streets of San Miguel to the pristine beaches of the Riviera Maya, Mexico is the “perfecto” destination for honeymooners and families alike. Travelers looking for a fast-paced itinerary will be enchanted by Mexico City’s bustling street markets, colorful murals and world-renowned cuisine while more laid-back travelers can certainly unwind with a more relaxed schedule filled with beach barbecues and siestas.
