What people love about Pacific Coast Mexico Tours
- Viva Mexico
I just finished my trip with INTRO Travel and their brand new trip in Mexico. The tour is beautifully run and really covers all that Mexico has to offer from cities, beaches, canyons, gorgeous towns and ancient Mayan ruins. It taught me so much about the culture of the regions I was visiting from meeting friendly locals and sampling Mezcal and watching traditional dances. It was a perfect blend of excitement, adventure travel, cultural exchanges and a few nights out bonding with the group thrown in for good measure! Value for money was great as we covered a lot of places in 13 days but it didn't feel rushed at all, and did so much more than I ever could have managed on my own. Most importantly I felt safe and secure the whole time I was there with expert knowledge and guidance from our Group Leader and local guides. Muchas Gracias INTRO Travel!

Excellent trip! Appreciated the choices of activities to do each day. The hotel where we stayed was centrally located and quite nice. It was noisy. This tour was very well organized and was a great way to experience the day of the dead celebrations.
