First Class Fun in Mexico

The average visitor to Mexico is completely amazed by exactly how many species of wildlife there are there. Most people will never realise that the jungles of Mexico make it one of the most bio-diverse regions on the planet. This diversity makes it a great getaway for the tourist that is tired of a typical African safari. Luxury holidays in Mexico can be spent exploring this bio-diversity and soaking up the unique culture of Mexico.

When planning luxury holidays in Mexico, it is advisable to decide early on what you want to see. Mexico is a country with a rich history and there is so much to see and so that you have to narrow down what your goals are in going there.

If you are looking to spend your luxury holidays in Mexico soaking up the Mexican culture, you need to understand that it is a mixture of cultures influenced by several Meso-American civilisations and impacted on by the Spanish conquest in 1519. You will, of course, want to explore some of the ancient sites and, in Mexico; there are a lot of them. The best preserved is probably Teotihuacan – now declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site – a city built and abandoned for an unknown reason by an enigmatic race of peoples that predate the Aztec. Very little is known about them except that they had a profound impact on the Aztec culture. Luxury holidays in Mexico would not be complete without sampling actual Mexican cuisine and, naturally, Mexico’s most famous export – Tequila – made from the blue agave plant.

If you want to spend your luxury holidays in Mexico having fun at the water’s edge, you could head to the Riviera Maya and spend some time enjoying the lush vegetation or snorkelling. Relax and unwind at the Mayan’s favourite holiday destination.

For something entirely different, why not visit Cancun, Mexico’s new premier vacation spot. The sandy beaches and wide array of resorts make it an ideal holiday destination. There are a wide variety of water sports on offer and the area is very popular with scuba divers and snorkelers alike. If getting wet does not suit you, you could always spend your time relaxing on the beach. Cancun has a very active night club scene and so can never be described as boring. There are a few ancient ruins that you can explore but Cancun has emerged as more of a gateway to the Rivera Maya and interior of Mexico for those with archaeological pursuits.

Holidaying in Mexico can be fun for the whole family.
