  1. Flights to Cancun (which is itself a horrible tourist destination) or Mexico City will be your cheapest option. I think I'm right in saying you get a tourist visa on entry (but confirm that yourself). Mexico is a really wonderful country. So many people go to the beaches, but the south - Yucatan, Chiapas and the Indian country is fantastic due to the colourful local culture. I wouldn't recommend bus from USA - that's a long old journey. Just fly direct. Just use a Footprint or Lonely Planet guide for cheap accommodation. I'd also recommend Lonely Planet's Latin American phrasebook for while you are there, plus reading a teach yourself Spanish book before you go.

    You'll have an absolute blast there.


  2. If possible, I highly reccomend you to book a flight with Volaris or another low cost airliner if you can. It will save you a heck of a lot of cash and everyone I know that has used the service has said great things of it.

    Downfall is that they don't land their planes in the main airport of Mexico City but in the one in Toluca. However, if you're making a connection flight it will be the best option for you because the Mexico City airport has a lot of air traffic. My mom was once making circles around the airport for a whole 2 hours because there were too many planes.

  5. If you are an American citizen, you do not need a visa to go to Mexico.  You will get a tourist card at the border or on the plane.  You can use the 1st site below to check ENTRY REQUIREMENTS of each country you are going to.  If you are not an American citizen, use the 2nd site and enter your nationaity and destination and click for the info.  Buses in Mexico are very nice and cheap. You can get buses into Mexico from the U.S. at McAllen Tx going to many locations.  There is an unbelievably cheap airline that has flights to Monterrey and Cancun from Austin (San Marcos) Tx...you need to check this site out..it is super....3rd site.Have a great trip!

  6. Mexico is a very large country with several regions in culture, ecology, landscape and touristic interest. So the best way is to have a plan before arrive.

    Some regions you may find interesting are;

    Beaches, in north, south and central regions.

    Colonial cities, in central and south Mexico

    Archaeological cities; in central and south.

    Eco-tourism; in all the country.

    I recommend you;

    By the way, Mexico is not Central America; the country belongs to North America
