Mexico Travel Tips
What you should know before you visit Mexico
By Thomas Routzong and Steven Skelley
Mexico is one of the top tourist destinations for U.S. travelers. Mexico’s warm year-round weather is perfect for vacationers seeking outdoor experiences, sunny beaches, and relief from cold winters elsewhere.
We have enjoyed multiple trips to Mexico. We have enjoyed every moment of whale watching, boating, sight-seeing, shopping, dining, snorkeling and Mayan ruin exploring.
VisitMexico, the web presence for Mexico Tourism, offers an informative website at http://www.visitmexico.com/
The VisitMexico website says, “Get your senses ready for an experience full of magic, color and warmth. Come and fall in love with Mexico!”
VisitMexico.com offers links to travel information pages for more than fifty destinations from Acapulco to Zacatecas.
There is also a Promotions page offering current special rates and offers.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), has awarded the title of Cultural Heritage of Humanity to approximately 204 cities around the world. Mexico has 10 of those cities!
Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula was the home of “one of the most sophisticated cultures in recorded history: the Maya.”
Mayan culture and temples can be explored in Chichen Itza and Uxmal in Yucatan, Tulum and Coba in Quintana Roo, Calakmul and the Chenes Route in Campeche, Palenque and Bonampak in Chiapas and Comalcalco in Tabasco.
Mexico has coastline on both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans which means there are an astounding 450 beaches.
VisitMexico highlights four destinations for beach lovers.
* Los Cabos is a luxury tourist resort at the meeting of the desert and the Sea of Cortes. VisitMexico describes Los Cabos as “clean-cut, modern facilities balanced with a traditional Mexican atmosphere. “
* The island of Cancun offers charming beaches and multinational hotels.
* The Mayan Riviera offers a variety of accommodations from world class hotels to rustic beach huts.
* On the Pacific coast, Huatulco offers nine bays, a wide range of accommodation from the rustic to luxurious. Huatulco is near some of Mexico's most famous surfing beaches.
For golf lovers, Mexico boasts over 150 golf courses.
According to the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Consular Affairs,
Mexico is a Spanish-speaking country consisting of thirty-one states and one federal district. The capital is Mexico City.
The climate ranges from tropical to arid, and the terrain consists of coastal lowlands, central high plateaus, deserts, and mountains of up to 18,000 feet.
Many cities throughout Mexico are popular tourist destinations for U.S. citizens and U.S. citizens account for the largest foreign tourist population visiting Mexico.
Although the majority of visitors to Mexico thoroughly enjoy their stay, a small number experience difficulties and serious inconveniences.
The U.S. Department of State Bureau of Consular Affairs publishes travel information and any current warnings for travel in Mexico at http://travel.state.gov/content/passports/english/country/mexico.html
Wherever you travel in Mexico, remember that Mexico’s Tourist Assistance Services are offered free of charge by dialing 078. Information includes free information on tourist attractions, airports, travel agencies, car rental agencies, embassies and consulates, fairs and exhibitions, hotels, hospitals, financial services, immigration services and other issues.
Mexico is a popular tourist destination for travelers around the world. We have enjoyed every visit to Mexico.
