What to explore

Mexico highlights

Mexico City & Oaxaca

Two of Latin America's most compelling cities. Mexico City pairs world-class museums, colonial architecture and a vibrant food scene with easy day trips to Teotihuacán. Oaxaca offers a slower pace — artisan markets, mezcal distilleries, and some of the country's finest regional cooking.

Yucatán Peninsula

The heartland of ancient Maya civilisation. Chichén Itzá, Uxmal and Tulum sit alongside colonial Mérida and the cenotes of the Yucatán interior. A region that rewards those who take time to explore beyond the resort strip.

Riviera Maya

From Cancún south to Tulum, the Caribbean coast offers clear water, white sand and a range of accommodation from boutique jungle lodges to larger beach resorts. Well suited to combining with inland cultural visits or as a standalone beach stay.

Copper Canyon & Pacific Coast

The Chihuahua al Pacífico railway — one of the world's great train journeys — descends through the Sierra Madre to the Pacific coast. Combine with time in colonial cities such as San Miguel de Allende or Guanajuato for a journey through a less-visited side of Mexico.
