Are you planning on going to Mexico for a sunny getaway this winter, but you can’t seem to shake those persistent safety concerns?

Following the launch of the Maya Train last year, Mexico looks set to host yet another major railway project, with construction set to start as soon as early 2025: As local media reports, it’s a new tourist town from Mexico City to Queretaro, one of the best-preserved––and most beautiful, at that––historic cities in the country …

We all know Mexico for its pristine white sand beaches and luxurious resorts lining turquoise seas, and let’s face it, if you’re after some pampering, there’s nowhere better to get it than Cancun, Tulum, and the like.
