  1. As charlie said, bus is a good idea, and the cheapest. You will be fine with $3'000 (about us$270 dolars) only if you are not going to a touristic place, and you already know where to sleep, probably in a friend's house. If you have a credit card is much better.


  2. Where do you want to go?

    Are you flying or driving?

    The Green Park Hotel in Mexico City is 126 pesos per night.

  3. Depends on where you go.  That is a tight budget.  If you go to a touristy town and stay at a tourist hotel, you will not last one day.  If you go to a non-touristy town and stay at  a local Mexican motor hotel ( usually 200 pesos a nite) and eat at the little local restaurants ( usually 30 to 60 pesos for a meal) , you will be fine.  Do NOT go to a border town.  Do NOT hang out in bars.  use your common sense and you will be fine.  Remember, you need to pay for your tourist card ($22.00USD).  If you go more than 12 miles into Mexico and are driving, not on a bus, you will need to pay for a Mexican car permit ( $50.00) and have a cr. card for them to imprint  to be sure you take your car back out of Mexico with you.  You will need mexican car ins.  if you go to Baja or Sonora, no permit is needed.  In other words, be prepared and be sure you have enough to gethome.  Bus is cheap and good idea.
