Hi all TT folk,
I'm heading to the Peninsula for 2 wks on 13th March and I'm debating the middle part of my trip. Needing some friendly advice!
Wanting to travel by bus, and wanting to do a mixture of diving / snorkeling / ruins / cenotes / nature / nice food.... not a big party person and would like to escape the crowds a bit but like doing activities rather than sitting on beaches. I've done multiple years of cash strapped back packing with long bus trips and was aiming for a more leisurely…

I am flying in to cancun in March and out of Cancun in June, giving me 3 and a half months of traveling.

I am really interested in exploring Mexico but since being a female traveler on my first solo trip I am slightly worried about safety. I know a lot of being safe comes down to using common sense, but I am aware that circumstances in Mexico are getting worse. I really interested in visiting puerto escondido and the surrounding areas, would anyone be able to recommend any other nice safe…

That´s the headline from a television news station last night. Earlier in the evening:

I was walking along Morelos in the centro historico of Oaxaca, on my way to a ¨slow music¨ concert at IAGO Juarez, when people started acting strangely. The man walking by me stopped in his tracks, the woman in the building nearest me started banging the steel doors fronting the sidewalk, a group of young people ran screaming into the street ahead of me. And everyone was looking at a light fixture across the…

We will be near La Paz in March with our car & need help & info on the hot / thermal / mineral baths or springs in the area and/or anywhere in Baja that is EASILY ACCESSIBLE by car (difficulty walking / bad hip). I will mostly need to park & walk directly to the hot springs. Hopefully a short distance. I am hoping El Chorro or surrounding ranch springs fit that bill.

Mil gracias -
SR

Hi guys, I'm an Australian travelling to Mexico via USA. I'm planning on spending 120 days in Mexico but have realised I need a visa waiver to travel through the US which is only valid for 90 days (including time spent in Mexico). I'm wondering if it's possible to spend the extra 30 days in Guatemala or at least cross the border and return on a new visa waiver, and what proof they need when I'm transiting through the US (such as a bus ticket from Mexico to Guatemala). If they ask for that at…

Anyone have any insight as to whether its worth it to do the snorkeling tour of the Cancun Underwater Museum? I would love to see it, but won't be able to scuba dive it. Not sure if the statues are too deep for it to be worth it snorkeling? I read that you need to keep your life jackets on.... in which case I'm assuming you can't get close to anything?

Hello! I travelled mexico a couple of years ago and loved their idea of 'little doors in big doors' at the front of their houses/properties. I want to copy their idea (for my garage door entrance) and am looking for inspiration. I am not fluent in Spanish and was hoping someone could tell me what these are called and how I can find a plethora of pics that Google and Pinterest just aren't delivering! Any advice, help, tips welcome.
