Mexico Unmasked Family Holiday


13 days from £5,753 for a family of 4

Mexico is the ideal destination for a family holiday. There are amazing places to visit such as the awesome archaeological site at Teotihuacán with its towering pyramids: learn how the Aztecs played ball and climb to the top of an ancient temple. Join Mexican families and mariachis on the floating gardens of Xochimilco. The jungle around Palenque Ruins teems with wildlife while a snorkelling trip from Mexico's Caribbean coast will bring 'Finding Nemo' to life.

Owing to many clients' preference for flexibility, and the variation in flight price according to season and availability, the price quoted excludes the cost of international flights, which we will happily arrange for you. Flights to Latin America can be daytime or overnight, while the return flight is always overnight, so you will need to add at least one day to arrive at the total length of your holiday.
