Holidays to Mexico

Mexico holidays are the ultimate fiesta, and everyone’s invited. With white-sand beaches, Mayan ruins, margaritas on tap and tacos to drool over, Mexico is the piñata of holidays – all you have to do is hit it up!

Bangin’ beaches

With sun-kissed shores and turquoise seas, Mexico takes beach holidays up a notch. So grab your favourite sombrero and celebrate the sunshine.

On the Caribbean side, Cancun’s beaches are where paradise meets party central. The Pacific coast, meanwhile, is all Baja California and beaches – think Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta and Acapulco.

Party ‘til the tequila sunrise

If fun times and fiestas are the focus of your cheap Mexico holiday, you can’t beat Cancun. Nights out here start with cervezas for pre-drinks in the Zona Hotelera, the city’s wild party district.

You can then continue the party with happy hours and salsa dancing at Señor Frogs. And make sure not to miss a cabaret show at the iconic Coco Bongo, Mexico’s mecca of madness.

Temples of swoon

Exploring Mexico’s ancient ruins is like stepping into a real-life Indiana Jones adventure. Meander around the Mayan temples of Chichén Itzá, where El Castillo (the Pyramid of Kukulkan) stands like the world’s most impressive birthday cake.

Or check out those Aztec legends who built their pyramids at Teotihuacan, just outside Mexico City.

Less talk, more tacos!

Mexican food is the stuff of citrus-soaked dreams: tacos oozing carnitas, saucy enchiladas, buckets of guac with tortilla chips (pro tip: mezcal is not a full meal!).

Try a tamale or a tasty ceviche, a zesty dish of fresh fish or shrimp marinated in lime juice and coriander. But save room for churros, doughnut fingers dusted in sugar and cinnamon. It’s the grand finale of Mexican cuisine.
