What people love about Mexico Tours in March
- Mexico Yucatán Experience
Had the most amazing time in Mexico. Our tour guide Manu was great and everything was organised amazingly. The trip was a perfect mix of activities and chill time, can’t believe so much was crammed into 11 days. Would recommend!
- Mexico Unplugged (from Mexico City to Isla Cozumel)
Great trip generally. Good itinerary and especially interesting being in Mexico during Day of the Dead. Basix style allowed freedom to do what we wanted but guide happy to organise/suggest excursions and give personal tips; best of both worlds. For travellers who don't need nannying but like the support and logistical stress reduction of a tour. Not 100% smooth but any issues resolved swiftly. Accommodation a high standard (despite Basix name) in nice central locations. Two overnight buses not really fun but ok and efficient use of time in a big country and greener than flying.
- Aztecs & Mayas
Generally very interesting, quite well organized, hotels decent (by general Latin American standards), and food good. Guides a mixed bag - some barely speak, others are a wealth of info. All kept us safe though, which is most important in this area. One guide unfortunately made an offhand racist comment towards the end of his tour, which unfortunately colored our whole perception of his commentary. I spoke with him about this and he did not apologize, but agreed to rethink his opinion. I've traveled to over 60 countries and unfortunately this is just something you encounter every now and then. In general I recommend the tour.
What our customers ask about Mexico Tours in March 2026
Which Mexican destinations are most recommended for March travel?
Mexico's diverse regions shine in March with comfortable temperatures and clear skies. The Yucatan Peninsula puts you close to archaeological sites and natural swimming holes known as cenotes. The weather is also good for exploring Mexico City's neighborhoods or walking through colonial towns like San Miguel de Allende and Oaxaca. Along the Pacific coast Puerto Escondido offers great surf conditions and beach time. Places like the NH Reforma in Mexico City or the boutique Casa Vieja in San Cristobal let visitors settle into local rhythms while exploring nearby attractions.
What are the best cultural events and festivals in Mexico during March?
The Spring Equinox at Chichen Itza (March 21st) draws crowds to watch sunlight create a snake-like shadow along the pyramid's steps. The phenomenon brings together natural geometry and ancient Mayan architecture. Beyond this major event local festivals fill town squares across the country. The Guadalajara International Film Festival typically runs in March bringing Mexican and international cinema to audiences. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "Experiencing the equinox at Chichen Itza was absolutely magical - the combination of Mayan history and natural phenomena made it unforgettable."
What wildlife experiences are unique to Mexico in March?
March marks peak season for gray whale watching in Baja California's Pacific waters. Near La Paz the Sea of Cortez creates perfect conditions for swimming alongside sea lions at Los Islotes. The Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve close to Tulum offers chances to spot tropical birds marine life and native species in their natural habitat. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The March whale watching experience in Baja was absolutely incredible."
What are the best areas to visit in Mexico during March?
The Yucatan Peninsula offers excellent beach conditions from Cancun to Tulum and Merida. The mild temperatures in Mexico City and colonial towns like San Miguel de Allende create perfect conditions for walking tours and outdoor dining. The Copper Canyon region welcomes visitors before summer's intense heat arrives. Many travelers choose to stay at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in Cancun or Hotel Del Gobernador in Merida as convenient bases for regional exploration.
What is the weather like in Mexico during March?
Spring brings reliable weather patterns across Mexico. The Cancun and Riviera Maya region maintains temperatures between 75-85°F (24-29°C) with low humidity. Mexico City and central regions see daytime highs of 75-80°F (24-27°C) followed by cool evenings around 50°F (10°C). TourRadar travelers note these conditions create "ideal conditions for exploring ruins like Chichen Itza and Teotihuacan without the intense heat of summer months."
How crowded are tourist attractions in Mexico during March?
Tourist numbers rise during March especially around Spring Break. Major sites like Chichen Itza and Tulum see peak crowds during the Spring Equinox. However quieter alternatives exist at places like the Uxmal ruins or the colonial streets of Campeche. Hotels such as Fiesta Inn in Los Mochis and City Express Plus in Chihuahua serve as good starting points for discovering less-visited attractions.
