The
country of Mexico is located in South America. It is a traveller's
paradise, crammed with an array of contrasting and opposite identities:
desert landscapes, snow-capped volcanoes, lost ruins, industrialised
cities, colonial towns stuck in time, up-market resorts, deserted
beaches and a unique collection of flora and fauna. There are many
excellent value for money cheap and bargain holidays to Mexico
as well as exciting all-inclusive and package holidays.
The key to Mexico’s charm is the distinct mix of modern
and traditional. Whether your ideal holiday consists of throwing
back
margaritas, listening to howler monkeys, surfing the Mexican Pipeline,
adventuring over Mayan ruins or revitalising your Day of the Dead
collection of weird skeletons.
The west coast of Mexico contains small fishing towns like
Puerto Angel, and beach resorts like Acapulco overlooking
the Pacific
Ocean. To the east, the white beaches of Cancun and Cozumel
are extremely
well known around the world for their beauty. Mexico is definitely
a blend of cultures, customs and a place where history is brought
to life.
The climate throughout Mexico is characterised by high temperatures
and moderate to low rainfall.
Mexico City
The bustling heart of the country is Mexico City, sweeping
out over the central Zócalo Square. This is a city of speeding
taxis and busy market-stalls, entwined with colourful
Aztec dancers and panaderías with their freshly baked pastries.
In nearby Xochimilco, wonderfully decorated trajineras (large,
flat gondolas) drift past delicate floating terraces of flowers
to the delightful sound of mariachi music. The excellent Holiday
Inn in Mexico City is a great place to stay and package holidays and
all-inclusive vacations are very popular.
Cancun
Cancun lies on the north-east tip of the Yacatan Peninsula, on the
Caribbean coast. Cancun is a modern, purpose built resort with
first class facilities and an exciting atmosphere drawing on
strong American influences. Cancun is perfectly situated to explore
the ancient ruins of Tulum and Chichen Itza and it has over 12
miles of superb white sandy beaches. Cancun has developed along
a strip of land that lies between the sea and a beautiful lagoon.
Good all inclusive holidays, package holidays and some cheap
bargain holidays to Cancun are available. The north facing beaches and
sea are protected by the Isla Mujeres, which helps to create
ideal conditions for water sports and bathing. The soft white coral sand
stretches for miles, and is definitely a sun worshippers paradise;
these features have helped to make Cancun Mexico’s premier
tourist resort.
Puerto Vallarta
Set against the backdrop of the Sierra Madre Mountains, Puerto
Vallarta exudes Mexican character and charm that it has retained
from its early days as a tiny fishing village. Whilst the old
town continues to retain much of its architecture and cobbled
streets, a few kilometres away a vibrant marina boasts ultra-modern
bars and a variety of restaurants. To service this growing resort
there is an array of quality all inclusive deals and bargain
holidays to Puerto Vallara are readily available. An excellent place
to stay for first time visitors is the Holiday Inn in
Puerto Vallarta.
All-Inclusive Holiday to Mexico
Mexico offers fantastic opportunities for all-inclusive holidays.
It is possible to book a value-for-money all-inclusive stay in
a top quality hotel situated on one of Mexico’s long white
sandy beaches. Most hotels have great locations, often only metres
from the beach and local marina. Added to a host of shops and bars,
there is always plenty to do: water sports, scuba diving,
massage whirlpool, pool entertainment, disco, restaurants, and
bars. Most hotel rooms will have satellite TV, air conditioning, bathroom
and balcony.
