Your Guide to a World of Travel Experience.
Cancun remains the number 1 resort in Mexico, with more than 2 million visitors per year. It continues to grow and develop each year, with new resorts constantly being added. A wealth of package tours makes this an affordable destination. 'Travel & Leisure' magazine recently names Cancun one of the top 10 destinations in the world.
This guide also covers Cozumel, a terrific snorkeling and diving destination, plus other smaller beach towns along the coast. It also takes you to Chichen-Itza and Tulum, Mexico's most spectacular ruins, and inland to Merida and fascinating Maya towns.
Three new nature parks - Xpu-ha, Tres Rios and Actun Chen - offer a different take on the sun-and-sand experience, with jungle tours, birdwatching and cave spelunking. The Riviera Maya (the Caribbean coast of Mexico stretching south from Cancun to the Belize border) is exploding with full-service and all-inclusive hotels. The book also includes a giant full-colour fold-out map.
