How to Keep Your Vida Vacations Experience Sublime

By Shari Sewell


One of those countries you just have to see one day is Mexico. The country is among the leading vacation spots today due to its gorgeous coastlines and charming culture. Naturally, this does not mean that preparations are no longer necessary for the traveler headed to it.

It can be helpful to be aware of when the most tourists come. You can expect the country to experience a dry and a wet season in one year. The dry season begins around April and goes on to May, where it then cedes to the rains.

The greenery looks best during the rainy time of the year, although it is slightly less convenient. Tropical flowers are everywhere during this time, making a spectacular scene. Showers are more common after noon, so remember that.

Then there is the hurricane season, which spans the months of June to October. Avoid places close to the southern Pacific coast then, as well as the Yucatan Peninsula. The months following it (the winter) are perhaps the ideal ones for a tourist to come, though.

The traveler may benefit too from being aware of the peak tourist times. Luxury resorts hotels, such as that of Vida Vacations, are popular spots for teenagers from the US and Canada to spend their spring break. Those not too keen on spending their holiday amidst raucous crowds had best avoid this time of year, then.

English is fairly well-known, but hardly as well as Spanish, naturally. This means you should prepare for that language barrier one way or another. Learning a few practical phrases and typical questions would also be useful as to make your trip all the more endearing.

The money you should carry around with you here is the Mexican peso. Despite being a top tourist destination, there are still many restaurants and stores that do not accept credit cards. To spare yourself the trouble, always bring some money with you instead of just relying on your cards.

Tap water is not exactly potable here. It is best to be paranoid here, even if they do argue that they filter their water in the establishment. You should also watch what else you put into your mouth to avoid disease.

Contrary to the negativity often associated with Mexico, traveling can be very safe. It falls on you to be careful about where you go, of course. It falls on you to be aware too of what is going on around you.

Tourists continue to flock to the south, allowing Mexico to become the second most popular destination of Canadians after the United States. You can learn more about what Mexico can promise you by looking to Vida Vacations' offers and packages, since its properties are among the most popular in the business. It is crucial for you to be ready ahead of time, of course.
