Essential Central Mexico
9 days, Puerto Vallarta to Mexico City
Just hearing the name Mexico is enough to conjure up images of mariachis, tequila, beaches, and heavenly food. Lucky you, this trip from Mexico's Pacific coast to its capital captures all of those things. Starting in Puerto Vallarta, you'll head to Guadalajara, a rich cultural centre with music, festivals, and nearby distilleries. Next, you’re off to the smaller towns of Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende, where you’ll get immersed in Mexican history, not to mention its stunning scenery and architecture. Lastly, you’ll arrive in bustling Mexico City where you’ll say “adios!” to one heck of a trip.
