Feel the heartbeat of Mexico, past and present, on this ultimate journey through a land rich in history, magnificent landscapes, and friendly people.
Begin this fascinating trek in Acayucan and experience the unhurried pace of small town Mexico before exploring the giant stone Olmec heads of La Venta near Villahermosa. Next enter the deep, emerald-green jungles of the Yucatan Peninsula and the centre of the Mayan world. Climb the ancient pyramids of Palenque, Uxmal, and Chichen Itza before settling into our secluded beach camp on the Caribbean coast - swim, scuba dive, or relax on miles of unspoilt beaches.
Leaving the jungle behind, marvel at the turquoise-blue waters of Agua Azul waterfalls, before ascending into the centre of the Chiapas highlands to the fascinating village of San Cristobal de las Casas. Wander its cobblestone streets, teeming with local Tzetzol and Tzotzil Indians dressed in colourful costumes reminiscent of their Mayan ancestors. Explore local markets filled with exotic foods and beautiful handicrafts.
Drop out of the highlands for an exciting boat ride up spectacular Sumidero Canyon. Head for the colonial city of Oaxaca and climb the historic steps of the centre of ancient Zapotec culture in Monte Alban. Spend the last few days exploring Oaxaca's markets and exciting nightlife, before ending back in Mexico City - an unforgettable trek through an unforgettable land.
