Mexico Highlights

Mexico City

The vibrant, colorful Mexico City is a popular holiday destination because of its many sights and beautiful surroundings. The city is located at 2,240 meters above sea level in the center of the country. Mexico City is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world and here you can find, among other things, many historic locations such as Aztec temple, a beautiful Spanish Cathedral, churches, and the National Palace. In and around the city you will find many historical locations where you can get acquainted with the ancient cultures of this part of America. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of Chapultepec Park and get to know the long history of this area. It’s difficult to get bored here with so much to do.

Yucatán

Then Yucatán in the southeastern part of Mexico is the perfect destination if you’re looking for sun, sea, and beaches. This area is a feast for your senses and there is a lot to do. A month wouldn’t even be enough to see everything. Thousands of years ago, the indigenous people of Mexico centered around this area and constructed beautiful temples. This peninsula is surrounded by white bounty beaches and is arguably the best-known region in all of Mexico. Here you can spot migrating flamingos, climb ancient temples, swim in cenotes (open water natural pools) and, of course, relax under the swaying palm trees.

Tulum

Tulum is particularly popular for its beautiful beaches and its relaxed atmosphere. The town has many bohemian style cafes, restaurants and hotels, which also gives many travelers that hippie feeling. But however you experience a stay in Tulum, this coastal town is well worth a visit on a trip to Mexico. If only for the unique combination of white sandy beaches, Mayan ruins and cenotes. Tulum is a pleasant town that is popular with backpackers as well. And although it can be touristy, there is a relaxed atmosphere and you certainly cannot escape the holiday feeling here.

Top things to do in Mexico

Cancún

Discover the tropical summer paradise of Cancún in the Yucatán with over 17 kilometers of snow-white beaches that flow into a bright blue sea. You can spend your time relaxing on the beach or go snorkeling at Isla Mujeres or Playa Delfines where you can discover an underwater world full of coral reefs and fish species. Or visit one of the underground caves or Mayan ruins. In spring, American youths take over the city to celebrate their spring break. A week of dancing, partying, swimming and relaxing in the Mexican sun. But you can enjoy a relaxing sun holiday in beautiful Cancún all year round. And if you don't feel like lying on the beach among the crowds, you can rent a car and drive a little outside of Cancún to more beaches of Isla Blanca.

Chichén Itzá

Chichén Itzá was one of the most important cities of the Maya Empire and is still shrouded in mystery today. For decades scientists have been trying to make sense of all the secrets left behind by the Maya. El Castillo is the symbol of Chichén Itzá and the most famous building in all of Mexico. This impressive pyramid was built by the Maya in the 9th century and served as a temple to the god Kukulcán (in English: "feathered serpent"). The building is incredibly ingenious and represents an enormous calendar. Even though it is no longer allowed to climb the stairs of El Castillo, a visit to this historical place is still very much worth it.

Yaxchilán

The ancient city of Yaxchilán was once one of the most powerful Maya states. The city is now surrounded by jungle and supports an abundance of wildlife, including howler monkeys, spider monkeys and red macaws. This ancient site is known for its well-preserved structures, including ornate decorations, as well as the stone reliefs carved with ceremonial and conquest scenes. Some buildings contain hieroglyphic texts describing the history of the city. For lovers of culture and history, a tour and visit to this site is not to be missed.

Mexican Cuisine

Mexican cuisine is originally a combination of Aztec culture and Spanish traditions. It has now become one of the world’ most famous and delicious cuisines. Some traditional Mexican food includes: huevos rancheros , tortillas, tacos, chili peppers, fresh fruit, and chocolate. The most atmospheric place to experience the food culture is a local mercado (market) where the vendors sell authentic local food, souvenirs, textiles and household items. Corn is the staple of almost every meal. Many of these meals are served in both traditional and modern cafes and there are stalls on almost every street corner where you can satisfy your cravings.

Teotihuacán

Teotihuacán was once an important city in the valley of Mexico and is located thirty miles northeast of Mexico City. Today only ruins remain. The city thrived from about 150BC to 700AD and had about 200,000 inhabitants at its peak. It was a city filled with large buildings, but who lived in the city and how the inhabitants lived is still largely unknown. Various native people claim to be descendants of the inhabitants. Still, today even the ruins of this unprecedented metropolis are still impressive. At this impressive archaeological site you can still see foundations of pyramids, palaces and temples everywhere. Because Teotihuacán was a religious place, Aztec kings still came to the city on pilgrimage centuries after the city was destroyed.
