Cities

Guanajuato
Guanajuato, once the main colonial silver-mining center, is the baroque jewel of Mexico. The town still looks like the Revolution never came around as windy cobblestoned passageways go up and down a steep valley where cars are mostly useless. Museums, palaces, plazas, and churches are joint by tunnels and steep staircases across the hills, turning Guanajuato into a gorgeous labyrinth.
Mexico City
Mexico City, the massive capital home to around 21 million people, is a small country of its own. Its cultural institutions and museums, astounding gastronomy, history as a capital of three empires, architectural richness, and never-ending nightlife keep every visitor coming back for more.
Guadalajara
Guadalajara, the cradle of mariachis, is Mexico’s second largest city and boasts colonial architecture, a more laid-back attitude, and some of the biggest cultural festivals in Latin America.
Riviera Maya
Riviera Maya (Playa del Carmen), Mexico’s prime touristic wonderland, is a world-class destination known for its varied gastronomy, fabulous beaches, pristine Caribbean waters, and intricate Mayan history and culture.
