What travellers say
Our eco cultural tour with Joss was outstanding. We were seeking a peaceful and educational experience and that is exactly what we received. Joss was very friendly and informative and Carlos our driver was excellent. We learned much about prehistoric and colonial history. The lunch provided on the shore of the canal was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.
Christopher is passionate, and shares a history of the people that you don't read in the average textbook. Wonderful!
Fantastic, authentic experience. I felt welcomed into the home, and really enjoyed experiencing this with chef adheys family. It was interactive, I learned a lot, and of course the food we all ate together was amazing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this experience. Thanks again

Frequently asked questions
About Mexico
Mexico is a vibrant country located in the southern part of North America. It is known for its rich history, diverse culture, and stunning natural landscapes. The official currency of Mexico is the Mexican Peso (MXN). With its beautiful beaches, ancient ruins, and delicious cuisine, Mexico offers a wide range of experiences for travelers.
When to visit
The best time to visit Mexico is during the dry season, which runs from November to April. This is when you can enjoy pleasant temperatures and minimal rainfall. However, if you're interested in witnessing traditional Mexican festivals such as Dia de los Muertos or Semana Santa, it's recommended to visit during the corresponding months.
Getting around
Getting around Mexico is relatively easy, thanks to its well-developed transportation system. Domestic flights are a popular option for traveling between major cities. Buses are also a convenient and affordable mode of transportation, with extensive routes covering both urban and rural areas. Taxis and ride-sharing services are widely available in urban areas, while renting a car is a good option for exploring more remote regions.
Traveller tips
Learn some basic Spanish phrases to communicate with locals. Stay hydrated and use sunscreen, especially in hot and sunny areas. Try the local street food, but make sure it's from a reputable vendor to avoid any health issues. Respect the local customs and traditions, such as dressing modestly when visiting religious sites. Be cautious of your belongings and avoid displaying expensive items to prevent theft. Take the time to explore off-the-beaten-path destinations to discover hidden gems.
