Mexico
Mexico combines ancient Mayan and Aztec heritage with white sand beaches, cenotes and one of the world’s most loved cuisines. Our guides focus on the Yucatán Peninsula and the Riviera Maya. Explore the pyramid of El Castillo at Chichén Itzá, swim in underground rivers at Xcaret Park and visit the clifftop ruins and beach clubs of Tulum. The best time to visit is from December to April, during the dry season. Each article includes practical tips on tickets, transport from Cancún and how to avoid the crowds.
