20 Days in Mexico, incl. Mexico City and Cancun
A 20-day grand tour spans 4,000+ km across 32 destinations. Two full days in Mexico City, visits to UNESCO treasures like Morelia and Guanajuato, Pacific coastal stops, and Mayan ruins, concluding at Caribbean beaches in Cancun.
- Days 1-2
Mexico City
Begin your trip in Mexico's vibrant capital. Visit the Plaza of Three Cultures before driving 40 minutes to Teotihuacan. Get there before 9 AM to avoid crowds and heat while exploring this ancient site. Visit the Basilica of Guadalupe later in the afternoon. A practical tip: Use Uber instead of taxis from the airport for fixed prices and better safety.
- Days 3-4
Colonial Towns & Pacific Coast
Take a 2-hour drive to Tepoztlán through Morelos state. The pyramid trail requires sturdy shoes and plenty of water. Visit silver-famous Taxco but note its steep cobblestone streets might be difficult for some visitors. The next day takes you to Acapulco. Check out La Fortaleza fort in late afternoon when it's cooler.
- Days 5-7
Pacific Coast & Central Mexico
Drive 4 hours along the coast to Zihuatanejo. A recent visitor shares: "The Las Gatas beach boat ride is quick but can be choppy - take motion sickness pills if needed." Head inland to Lake Pátzcuaro and take a boat to Janitzio island. In Guadalajara start your sightseeing early before the heat kicks in.
- Days 8-11
Colonial Heartland
- Days 12-14
Oaxaca & Chiapas
Start at Monte Albán early for the best views. Drive to Tuxtla Gutiérrez stopping at Mitla along the way. A traveler notes: "The Sumidero Canyon boat trip is spectacular but bring sun protection - there's no shade on the boats." Visit the indigenous villages near San Cristóbal while respecting local traditions.
- Days 15-17
Mayan Heritage
- Days 18-20
Yucatan Peninsula
21 Days in Mexico, Guatemala & Belize, incl. Mexico City and Merida

- Days 1-3
Mexico City Region
Begin exploring Mexico City but plan around morning traffic. The metro system is safe and efficient for reaching key sites like the Zocalo and Chapultepec Park. "The anthropology museum was a highlight - get there when it opens at 10am to avoid the crowds." Take a day trip to Teotihuacan Pyramids. The drive takes about an hour. Plan to arrive by 8am before it gets hot and crowded.
- Days 4-6
Oaxaca & Monte Alban
The 8-hour drive to Oaxaca takes you through stunning cactus country. The historic center is perfect for walking and browsing artisan markets. Visit Monte Alban in the early morning. Bring water and sun protection for the steep uphill walk. "We were lucky to catch the radish festival in the Zocalo - the local celebrations here are incredible."

Thanks to our guide Mischel we spent an awesome two weeks at our customized South to North Tour in Mexico. Without him it wouldn't have been the same experience. He totally met our expectations and went even beyond that- he was very knowledgeable and eager to show us all the beautiful places this country has to offer. The communication with Alex before the start of our trip was very easy no problem at all. He's answering hin e-mails on a daily e got our tailored itinerary like 1 week ahead of our travels. I will definitely recommend this company to friends and family and wouldn't hesitate doing any other tour they've got in their portfolio.
