Captivating Mexico holidays
Ancient civilisations come alive among fascinating Aztec and Mayan ruins. You’ll find them dotted all over the country, whether hidden deep in the jungle, perched on the Caribbean coast, or basking in the sun on the high plains around Mexico City. Mexico also contains a cornucopia of natural wonders too.
From the mountains and misty cloud forests of Chiapas to the wild Pacific coastline around Puerto Escondido, our Mexico holidays allow you to explore the natural beauty of the country. And when it comes to arts and culture there’s plenty to captivate the senses – the bold strokes of artists like Diego Riviera and Frida Kahlo, the joyful notes of Mexico’s brass bands and mariachis, the heat of its chilli-spiked cuisine, and that potent shot of gold tequila to get the fiesta started.
