Don’t tell Sammy Haggar, but it’s time for Cabo to step aside. I’m not saying that just to stoke the fire of many Americans’ favorite beach escape; the numbers back it up in more ways than one. It’s not exactly a well-kept secret that Cabo’s resorts can be outrageously expensive. That’s one metric. The next …
Be it for the world-class beachfront resorts and pristine coastline, or all the tacos and tamales that just taste a lot better when assembled by native hands, Mexico remains the number one destination for Americans flying abroad this year. We love a little carefree sunny getaway ourselves, but we don’t know about you, lately we’ve …
Cabo has been hogging Baja’s spotlight for far too long. There’s a lesser known beach town in Northern Baja that has found itself as a nominee for Mexico’s ‘Best Beach to Discover in 2025‘. This slice of paradise lined with fresh seafood shacks, postcard shores, and American road trippers braving the so-called ‘danger’ of Tijuana, …
Mexico City’s urban sprawl is impossible to fathom, ranging from the ancient pyramids of Teotihuacán to some of the trendiest neighborhoods in the world, and centuries-old traditions in between. Just a decade ago, Mexico City was widely viewed as one of Mexico’s ‘dangerous’ destinations, put in the same category as actual no-go zones still deemed …
Sometimes, Americans ignore Mexico’s wonders, thinking Cancun, Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta are the only beach destinations worth visiting. As for Mexico’s sprawl of cityscapes, Mexico City seems to be the exception to unwritten rules, as our southern neighbor is misrepresented mainly as a ‘dangerous’ country, when in fact, a majority of violent crime happens …
Formerly viewed solely as a cruise destination intermixed on a laundry list of Caribbean paradises, perhaps Mexico’s most well-known island has become one of the country’s trendiest beach escapes. Arguably belonging in the same category as Tulum, Playa del Carmen, and Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, which recently entered the chat, Cozumel has soared to new heights as more …
If you love Mexico, but you’ve had enough of Cancun, Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, and basically anywhere else that’s been overrun with your fellow gringos in recent years, this one’s for you: As part of one of the biggest single-airline expansions, the U.S. flag carrier is launching nonstop flights to Puerto Escondido, a fast-growing leisure destination …
Imagine a place where time slows down, where the air is crisp, and the sound of cascading turquoise water fills your ears. Welcome to Santiago Apoala, a hidden gem nestled deep within the mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico. This isn’t your typical tourist trap; it’s a slice of authentic Mexican life, where ancient traditions meet breathtaking …
Dreaming of a south-of-the-border getaway, but you can’t be bothered any longer with the ultra-luxurious Caribbean resort spots that cater primarily to affluent beach bums, and barely feel like Mexico? In other words, have you been craving some of that Latin American authenticity, with the beautiful old towns, just a little rough around the edges, …
Mexico is the most popular destination for Americans going abroad any time of the year. Whether it’s January, when the beaches in Cancun are at their most attractive, or the peak of summer, an ideal time for exploring the balmy Mexican hinterlands, our southerly neighbor is full of wonders. As much as you might think you know …
If you asked an American some decades ago what their first option for a Mexico vacation was, it’s likely they would answer Acapulco. Before Cancun was even built, Acapulco was a thriving resort town on the Pacific Coast. With wide, sandy beaches backed by towering high-rises and the scenic Sierra Madre del Sur mountains, it …
We all know Mexico for its pristine Caribbean beaches, vast archaeological sites dotted with step pyramids, and clear-water cenotes. How about the rest of the country, particularly the Morelo hinterlands, which are miles away from any coast and do not typically feature on your average travel brochure? The capital and largest city of this overlooked state, …
