  • IS IT DANGEROUS FOR MY HEALTH TO VISIT MEXICO?
    Unless you’re going on an intense jungle trek, vacationers in Mexico mainly face the dangers of food and mosquito-borne diseases. Tourists are cautioned to use good mosquito bite repellents, drink bottled or purified water and use discretion when trying local cuisine. In addition, you should also take extra care under the hot Caribbean sun by wearing appropriate beach wear and a high factor sunscreens, as well as drinking plenty of water to stay dehydrated.
  • HOW DO YOU PAY IN MEXICO?
    The Mexican currency is the peso. Generally, the sign $ refers to peso prices and any prices quoted in US dollars should be written US$. Not many places accept US dollars and traveler's cheques are becoming increasingly difficult to exchange. While it’s easy to withdraw pesos from ATMS using major Visa and Mastercards, it’s best to travel with a small reserve of cash you can exchange at banks or exchange offices if there aren’t ATMS available. Most airlines, stores, restaurants, and hotels accept credit and debit cards.
  • WHAT ARE THE TIMEZONES IN MEXICO?
    Mexico uses four time zones: the Pacific Time Zone, Mountain Time Zone, Central Time Zone, and Eastern Time Zone.
  • WHAT LANGUAGE IS SPOKEN IN MEXICO?
    Mexico’s official language is Spanish, although English is spoken in heavily populated tourist areas. In certain highland areas, you might hear or see words written in Yucatec Maya, a Mayan language spoken by some locals. It’s advisable to learn a few common Spanish phrases before going to Mexico, as well as downloading an app or taking a simple phrase book with you on your travels.
  • WHAT TO PUT IN MY LUGGAGE WHEN TRAVELING TO MEXICO?
    What you pack depends heavily on the type of trip you’re making. Remember, you’re travelling to a Caribbean climate, which is generally warm but can have some colder days. Take key clothing items that are easy to layer, a pair of beach sandals, and comfortable trainers suitable for walking and exploring the jungle. Other important items include: A sun hat, sunglasses, insect repellents, a windbreaker and basic medical aid kit.
