Mexico

Guacamole, cenotes & ancient Mayan ruins

Welcome to Mexico, an enchanting country located in the southern part of North America. A destination known for its rich history, diverse landscapes, and vibrant culture. With an area of approximately 1,964,375 square kilometers, Mexico is 47 times larger than the Netherlands and offers a treasure trove of surprises for travelers of all ages. Mexico is bordered by the North Pacific Ocean to the west and the Caribbean Sea to the east. It also shares borders with the United States to the north and Belize and Guatemala to the south.

The landscape of Mexico is breathtakingly diverse, from the expansive coastline with golden beaches and turquoise waters to the majestic mountains, dense jungles, and impressive deserts. Additionally, Mexico has a rich history that dates back to the glorious civilizations of the Maya, Aztecs, and Olmecs. Travelers can discover historical treasures such as the majestic pyramids of Teotihuacan, the enchanting ruins of Chichen Itza, and the well-preserved city of Palenque—all testaments to the ancient glory of this country.

The Mexican culture is vibrant and colorful, steeped in a unique blend of indigenous traditions and Spanish influences. Wherever you go, you’ll be welcomed by warm smiles, lively mariachi music, and delicious culinary delights such as tacos, guacamole, and quesadillas—all a feast for your taste buds.

Mexico has a tropical climate, meaning it is warm and pleasant year-round, but the best time to visit is during the winter months when temperatures are mild. From the Netherlands, Mexico is easily accessible via international flights (flight time between 10 and 12 hours) to cities like Mexico City, Cancun, and Playa del Carmen.

Welcome to Mexico. Immerse yourself in the beauty of this fascinating North American gem and create memories with your children that will last a lifetime.
