Mexico
Mexico is a world apart, a multi-faceted reality born from the meeting of the indigenous and Spanish cultures. And it's this fusion of cultures, combined with enchanting nature, that makes it a perfect destination to organize every kind of trip.
Relax and fun will be guaranteed by its amazing crystal-clear Caribbean sea: the Mayan Riviera will leave you literally breathless. Let yourself be amazed by the white beaches of Cancun, Tulum, Isla Mujeres and Playa del Carmen, dive into the transparent sea and abandon yourself to the peacefulness of this paradise on the coast. But Mexico is famous also for the important archaeological sites, evidence of the ancient Mayan culture, which will offer you several ideas for a cultural tour discovering ancient pyramids and temples, the remains of a world that today we find hard to imagine. You will find vestiges of the great Maya universe in Chichen Itza, Teotihuacan, Uxmal, Palenque, places where time seems to have stopped.
In the colorful colonial cities, such as Guadalajara, San Cristobal de las Casas, Campeche, Merida, Guanajuato, you will find evidence of the Spanish rule which lasted for three centuries in the buildings and streets still retaining a typically Latin atmosphere. They have remained almost identical over the years. You will then see the utmost expression of the meeting between two worlds, that of the Spanish settlers and the natives, in Mexico City, which is so cosmopolitan and modern with its palaces, avenues and parks, and yet at the same time still so linked to an ancient past in the archaeological area of the pyramids.
Nature in Mexico will charm you like nowhere else: from the jagged coasts and semidesert landscapes of Baja California, to the great lush natural reserves and Copper Canyon, or Canyon del Cobre, to be visited on the evocative Chepe train.
The traditional Mexican cuisine will delight you with delicious typical dishes, while the state of Jalisco is famous for the production of tequila. Stop at the street-food stands, buy tacos and churros losing yourself in the real atmosphere of this lively country. Mexican hospitality and the warmth of the people will contribute to making your vacation unforgettable; in the handicraft markets you will find typical multi-colored objects, such as ponchos, hammocks and the characteristic straw hats.
