Mexico Discovery Travel from the bohemian metropolis of Mexico City to the golden shores of Cancun with our action packed Mexican Discovery! Mexico is the Central American heartland that epitomises the best of Latin fiesta spirit and an endless fascination of the legacy of the Mayan civilization. In Mexico you will discover picturesque colonial towns surrounded by rainforest cloaked mountains, heavenly beaches where Mayan ruins tumble down to pristine shores, and markets humming with a hundred street vendors selling everything from pungent leather handbags to magic spells from shamans! Mexicans are said to be the happiest people in the world and it s not hard to see why! Mexican culture is an exotic and heady mix of dark magic and a strong sense of celebrating life and death. Look out for 'Los Dias de Muertes', or the 'Day of the Dead' to see colourful skeletons and huge processions filling the streets of every town! If you're looking for an easy, flexible way to travel through Mexico then look no further, the Frontier- Mexico Discovery will make your journey something different, fun and unforgettable! Better yet, with the easy going hop-on, hop-off system, you can travel at your own pace and be sure you see it exactly the way you want to.
