Is Morelia still safe and advice on doing a day trip to Volcan Paricutin

Hello all,

Apologies for being over sensitive but I just wanted to check my assumption that all is safe in Morelia as there haven't been any comments on this for a few months. Please just let me know if that isn't the case.

More importantly can anyone give me any advice on doing a day trip from Morelia to Volcan Paricutin in order to try and climb up it. Are there organised tours or do you have to make the arrangements yourself? Also if anyone has information on timing and potential costs that would be great.

Thank you for any assistance you can give.

Best regards

Alex

bus from Morelia to DF airport?

Is there a bus from Morelia directly to Benito Juarez? I'd love to avoid having to take a taxi from the bus station to the airport.

Thanks

Monterrey, Nuevo Leon: transportation within and around city

Hello All,

Does anyone have any information on where or how to rent a van for 6 people in Monterrey Mexico? We are considering either doing that and hoping to navigate with a GPS system or actually hiring a taxi driver to take us around for 7 days. Problem is we are six people medium to small size and a simple car would not hold us all. Besides that, I do have an phone number of a taxi driver but it is a cell number. I don't know how to call 044 numbers. I'd so appreciate some help on this. Thanks.

next trip to Mexico/Central America

I'm looking for a new town to visit in Mexico or Central America. I've been to Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido Guanajuato, Guadalajara, Riviera Maya, Chihuahua, Guatamala, Panama and Costa Rica. I generally like colonial cities, but I'm really up for any place that offers cool architecture, hiking or arts. I'm generally not fond of giant cities for vacation, so this kind of rules out Mexico City. Any suggestions to get me started would be helpful. I'm mid 40s, US citizen, adventurous and speak passable Spanish.

Nogales to Sayulita

I will be driving next week and am looking for a small hotel to stay on the way - Navajoa, Los Mochis, Guasave. Please share any info you might have on places that are not on the usual web sites. Also suggestions on nice culinary experiences along the way would be most appreciated! thanks!

Onward ticket from the USA to Mexico

Do you need an onward ticket from the USA traveling to Mexico, or just proof of sufficient funds in your bank account? I'm traveling there for tourism to meet a girl. I have already went down there in January of this year, but when I went I had a return ticket one week later. I'm starting a round the world trip and am not sure how long I want to stay in Mexico with this girl. I understand I can stay in Mexico for 6 months. However I was hoping to purchase a ticket flying out of Mexico while I was in Mexico. I would rather not purchase on onward ticket right now and then if I decide I want to stay longer I bought that ticket for nothing. Does anybody have any knowledge or experience with this? I looked at the US state travel website http://www.travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_970.html#entry_requirements and this didn't mention anything about it. Any advice or personal experian... more »

Planning Honeymoon - Merida, Chichen Itza, Akumal

Howdy,

I'm trying to introduce my soon-to-be husband to Latin America, the region I studied, lived in, and traveled through for 8 years of my life. I'm really excited to be able to finally introduce him to this part of me.

My plan is for us to leave on Tuesday, November 12.

Day 1 - Fly SFO to Merida

Day 2 - Merida

Day 3 - Morning in Merida, afternoon travel to Chichen Itza or Valladolid

Day 4 - Chichen Itza ruins; stay in Chichen Itza or Valladolid

Day 5 - Ex Balam/Cenotes; stay in Valladolid

Day 6 - Travel to Akumal/Resort

Days 7 to 10 - Resort

Day 11 - Drive to Cancun, Fly home

So a few questions:

1) Do you think this is too rushed? After months of wedding planning, we don't want to run run run. We want some history, culture, and beach time. I think it's fine, but want confirmation.

2) Do you recommend we rent a car for this? Neither of us ... more »
