Mexico holidays combine the culture, history and cuisine of Latin America with the beaches, wildlife and beauty typical of a Caribbean holiday.
Home to diverse history, vibrant culture, unique cities and truly mouth-watering cuisine, Mexico is a bucket list hit.
Explore Mexico City’s world-renowned museums and galleries or grab yourself some gifts from the iconic flea markets and shopping malls. Spend the evenings dancing the night away at underground dance clubs or sip on cocktails made from the country’s one-of-a-kind agave-based liquors.
Discover another world when you head for Mexico’s coastline (although you’ll still find tequila!). Palm-fringed beaches line the shores and golden sands stretch as far as the eye can see. A striking contrast from the bustle of the capital, the numerous beach resorts provide the ultimate, picturesque spot to relax and unwind as you enjoy a Paloma, or two. Think luxury accommodation, swim up bars, incredible natural beauty and exceptional service.
If you prefer a little adventure on your beach break, you can take up a jet ski and soar on the Pacific and the Caribbean Sea or go white water rafting over the Mexican rivers. Or take a day trip to one of the many impressive archaeological monuments.
Mexico is an endless adventure for the senses, and perhaps the most fortunate is taste. Needless to mention, the country’s gastronomic repertoire is at its heart and dining out is an endless adventure. Some of Mexico's best eating is had at simple seafront palapa (thatched-roof shack) restaurants.
