An exciting destination for a package holiday, Mexico is a spectacular country to visit and a holiday there guarantees to be a once in a lifetime trip that will leave you wanting more.
Occupying an area eight times that of the UK, Mexico is simply huge. Part of Latin America, it is spread across a dramatic landscape that covers lush jungles and tropical beaches, spectacular cliffs and deep canyons.
The centre of the country is a vast plateau dominated by huge mountains, many of which are volcanoes, including some that are still active. The highest peak, Popocatepetl, climbs up to 19,000ft above sea level and dwarfs the Alps in Europe. In stark contrast, desert regions are found in the north, on the border with the United States and along the long, thin Californian peninsula.
Mexico also has a fantastic year-round climate and, with sights of spectacular natural beauty, is a popular place for tourists. There is a wide range of resorts and hotels you can choose from – many of which are all-inclusive and have direct access to their own beach. There is also a vibrant nightlife and bubbling Latin-American culture to enjoy.
Michoacán is a stunning destination to take your holiday in the sun, boasting year round sunshine, an impressive mountain range and the beautiful coast as a backdrop to this vibrant and unspoiled resort.
With great weather throughout most of the year, Yurecuaro is the ideal destination to take your holiday in the sun, where you can bask in the vibrant and beautiful culture of Mexico.

Located between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, Akumal is a gorgeous resort of white-sand beaches and crystal clear waters that is home to nesting turtles. There are fantastic scuba-diving opportunities and it is a magnet for art and nature lovers.
