We offer many other trips to Mexico which can accommodate a range of dietary requirements.
- Mexico's climate is hot and humid. Wear loose clothing and make sure you stay hydrated, especially while out on walking tours. You can expect to walk a lot on this trip and the terrain is often steep. Make sure to pack a jacket for the higher altitude cities like Mexico City and Puebla.
- Mexico is a big country and you will be covering a fair amount of ground on this trip, so be prepared for some long drives. Please read the itinerary carefully for travel time estimates.
- This trip visits places that are at high altitude, and as a result some people can suffer from altitude sickness, regardless of age or physical health. Please ask for more detail.
