What people love about Mexico Tours in March
- Mexico Unplugged (from Mexico City to Isla Cozumel)
This is a tour for active travellers able to endure considerable walking and long travel days. While Intrepid’s physical rating is 2 out of 5, our group generally felt it was at least a 3. Be prepared for lots of stairs at the pyramids at high elevation under a blazing sun. The hotels for this trip were all well chosen and conveniently located, and I liked them all, especially at Puebla. I was pleased that Intrepid has now hired a private van instead of using the overnight public bus where thefts were common, in combination with an additional night in Merida. However, this van had no temperature control, with air-conditioning that was either on at full blast or off, so passengers were alternatively either too cold or hot. There was a wide range of eating establishments, from markets with basic but authentic Mexican food and beggars pestering patrons for money, to higher end restaurants that, more often than not, provided mediocre food for the money. The group generally disliked the food at the taco restaurant where we dined in Mexico City on the first night. Our tour leader Ana was very personable and likeable. The group generally felt we would have benefitted if she were better organized and communicated better. There was ongoing frustration when she was out with those on the optional tours, and those who did not go along were left hanging until they returned as to when and where we would be getting together for dinner in the evening, or when we would be leaving the next morning. Often, we discovered this important info by word-of-mouth from others in the group. Details on the optional tours were insufficient and often consisted of a verbal sentence or two, leaving travellers with little info to decide whether to commit. Based on past experience with other tours, we anticipated receiving a handout from Intrepid outlining what was involved with each of the optional tours. During the city orientation tours, Ana often showed little regard for whether the whole group was following her, or whether everyone was close-by to hear what she had to say. She also routinely underestimated the length of the walking tours and amount of walking required. She did show compassion for those who became ill, and was unhesitant in taking those to visit the doctor who needed it, which in our group was unfortunately almost half of us. While I enjoyed the tour itinerary and was fortunate to have a compatible roommate, based on this experience I would now be somewhat less likely to join another group tour, whether it be with Intrepid or another tour company.
- Aztecs & Mayas
Most things really good only 1 guide in Mexico City was poor .
- Colonial Mexico
We really liked the tour. There were some mishaps, but the guide was on top of everything. Maria Fernanda answered all our questions and gave us shopping tips.
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.
