From fascinating Aztec and Mayan history to incredible gastronomy, brilliant beaches and dense jungles, Mexico is a mix of intoxicating landscapes and culture that go far beyond its well-known beach destinations.

From Mexico City, once the cultural and political capital of the Aztec empire with its colonial architecture, famous artisans, ancient Aztec ruins and impressive pyramids, to Guadalajara, which bounces to the rhythm of mariachi bands and is a great place to indulge in some tequila tasting.

Visit Puebla, Mexico's own "City of Angels", where you can dine on the best of Mexican gastronomy such as mole poblano and chile en nogada and Oaxaca, known as the land of the seven moles, famous for its vibrant street food.

Chiapas State is home to the largest indigenous population in Mexico as well as verdant hilltop towns and low-lying valleys. The Mayan Ruins of Palenque here are not to be missed.

Discover the many natural cenotes (sinkholes), stunning pink lakes, white sand beaches, and prominent ancient Mayan ruins of the Yucatan Peninsula, and enjoy fresh seafood and strolls in Puerto Vallarta. In neighbouring Quintana Roo, you can explore the world-renowned Riviera Maya, a 120km coastline of palm-lined beaches, crystal-clear waters, and reef-fringed islands.

Baja California garners the best opportunities to get close-up with marine life. Snorkel with sea lions, swim with sharks, or even go whale-watching. The Pacific coastline enjoys stunning natural beauty, with lush jungles, turquoise waters, and oceanfront hotels surrounded by the Sierra Madre mountains, and you can travel through this epic mountain range on one of the most incredible train journeys in the world in Chihuahua.
