Holidays in Mexico

A mix of beautiful landscapes, ancient cultures, outdoor recreation, and warm hospitality from the locals. No matter where you find yourself in the country there will always be people eager to help you enjoy Mexico's beauty.

Mexico has plenty to offer holiday makers, soak up the sun on its Caribbean beaches, explore the ancient sites, see the different array of inexpensive foods available in the markets and plazas. Many come to the country to see the wonderful sights that give an insight into Mexican history; huge temples, colonial churches and pyramids providing a living reminder of the mighty civilisations, that thrived there over 2000 years ago.

Mexico City, also known as the City of Palaces, is today one of the biggest, most complex and most beautiful modern cities in the world. The different cultures that previously inhabited the city have left an abundance of different styles of architecture as well as Mexican art that can also be seen on the ruins of the Templo Mayor (The Great Temple).The advantage of a city such as Mexico City is that it offers visitors a variety of entertainment possibilities during the day and night.

Acapulco, the largest and most spectacular tourist area in the Mexican Pacific. Also known as the Pearl of the Pacific due to its stunning beaches, lavish natural surroundings and wonderful climate. The most popular holiday destination in Mexico and Latin America, offering an immense range of attractions to suit every taste and budget including fishing, diving, water skiing and snorkeling. There are also several ecological areas (perfect for picnics and horse riding) as well as golf courses and tennis courts.

Cancún, located on the northern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula, is one of the most important tourist complexes in Mexico. Its wonderful location shaped like an island, its year-round mild climate, and its gorgeous, sandy white beaches by the Caribbean Sea are also ideal for water sports. Cancún also has many plazas and malls featuring everything from handicrafts from all over the country to an impressive array of imported goods.

Playa del Carmen, suited to those seeking a more relaxed atmosphere. Situated some 40 miles south of Cancún, it offers a laid back, peaceful and friendly welcome with a good selection of bars, restaurants and Mexican handicraft shops. The relaxed atmosphere and Mexican charm make this a fascinating area. From here, you can take a day trip to the lovely island of Cozumel, and you can combine your stay in Playa Del Carmen with a visit to the country's exciting capital, Mexico City.
