About this tour

Few countries unleash your inner Indiana Jones quite like Mexico, where jungle temples and the abandoned cities of ancient civilisations make way to colonial towns with cobbled streets and Spanish architecture. This fusion of history has led to a unique culture, encompassing the art of Frida Kahlo and the delicious cuisine of Oaxaca. Uncover the historical and cultural layers of the country as we journey from the highlands of Mexico City to the jungles and beaches of the Yucatan via the lands of the Aztecs, Zapotecs, Maya and Conquistadors.This trip is our special Day of the Dead festival departure, which is one day longer than the standard trip and spends the day celebrating the festivities in Oaxaca.
