Answer 3

Ok. If you don't want to go too deep into México, go to Cancún, or Riviera Maya. That is safe, many things to do and to see (mayan ruins, beach, jungle, shows, etc.).

Don't go to México city alone (or even better: don't go there anyway), don't go to USA-MX borders.

Also it is a good idea to go:

beaches: in the pacific: Puerto Vallarta, Huatulco, Ixtapa (avoid Zihuatanejo), Mazatlán. in the Gulf : Veracruz, Mérida, Campeche.

colonial cities: Zacatecas, Guanajuato, Querétaro, Morelia, Taxco, Puebla.

Remember, México is big. The distance among those cities is long. You should let us know what you are looking for or if you have any idea. The weather, culture, people, everything is VERY different from one place to another (if you go to Cancún, to Veracruz,to Puebla, to Guanajuato, to Puerto Vallarta, to Mazatlán, to Los Cabos and to Chihuahua you could understand what I mean).

Answer 4

There are many beautiful and fun places.... it depends on what you want to do.

What you want to see and how much money you want to spend.

i do hear Riu Palace....

but I love going to Guadalajara and next to that Guajabitos very nice place to visit..there's alot of little places people dont know unless you're from mexico or have family in mex... You can also go for Yucatan, Acapulco, Colima, Aguas Calientes.... Cabos....etc etc

Answer 5

Go to Monterrey or Mexico city. Just drive on through the border towns because they aren't really safe and not really a hot spot for tourists. Also, use common sense. If you are wearing jewelry on your hand, DONT stick it out the car window. Try not to carry a purse... Mexico is a really fun place but you can get into trouble if you let your guard down... Have fun..

Answer 6

Take a trip to the Guanajuato-Michoacan area. It's great. Morelia and Guanajuato are beautiful cities. Here, in the center of the country, you will see the "real" Mexico.

Answer 7

Bring bottled water.  Don't carry a lot of cash.  We always stay at Carmen Del Playa, safe and very nice.

Answer 8

if you are on a budget and dont want a big touristy city, Yelapa is perfect.  it is in Jalisco, near Puerto Vallarta.  it is an amazing tiny town that is only accesible by boat.  what you do is fly into PV, take a bus or taxi to Boca de Tamotlan, and get a water taxi (which happens to be one of the most fun things you can ever do)  go to palapainyelapa.com and check out vista del mar.  i have stayed there twice for about $40 or so and loved it.  the town is almost suspiciously safe and if you want to go out and party, you can head to PV for the night.
