Central Mexico Tours & Trips

Central Mexico means CDMX museums and street food, Oaxaca markets and mezcal, Puebla's pottery, and Guanajuato's colorful everything. Head to San Miguel for colonial stuff, and Taxco silver. You could experience the Day of Dead if the timing's right. Central Mexico does culture deeper than beach resorts ever could. The food alone justifies going.

I did the 2-week Viva Mexico tour with Ceci as my guide. Fourteen other people were on the tour and they became friends I know I’ll remember forever. The first week was a perfect mixture of fascinating culture, beautiful landscapes, and delicious food. The second week was more relaxed. We swam in amazingly blue water and watched the sun set together. As a leader, Ceci was equally responsible and passionate. She took care of us like we were family and danced with us like there was no tomorrow. :)
