Question

I am planning a trip to Mexico from Ohio with a 4 year old child. Plane,bus, train? any suggestions?

Answer 1

Absolutely hands down, take a plane. Find a destination with major airport close to your lodging.  I have traveled all over Mexico for over 20 years. The buses leave alot to be desired. I would not want my small child on one. Most are very dirty. My all time favorite location when my children were younger was Occidental Allegro in Cozumel. They have a kids club with lots of activities.

Have FUN!

Answer 2

Take a plane to your destination. We've taken our grandson into Mexico the last 2 years, at age 4 and 5.  Bring some snacks for him if he has some favorite ones. You can get most anything in Mexico but he might like something he knows once in a while.  He'll have a great time.  And there aren't any passenger trains in Mexico.

Answer 3

Take a plane straight to your destination. And be careful with the food there. Lot's of people get sick, especially little tykes. Don't buy from any street vendors.

Answer 4

Toys, gameboy and of course the "good night juice": Benadryl.

Answer 5

Plane - especially with a 4 year old. Bus would be an absolute nightmare and train would be difficult at best.

I think the cost difference is well worth the conv. and time savings.
