One of Mexico's
and Latin America's most exciting cities.
With more than 320 days of sunshine per year
and a year round spring-like climate, this
colonial city has it all: an enchanting
historical center, excellent restaurants &
bars, culture and even shopping malls. Its
central location is near mountains, beaches,
nature reserves, other colonial cities and
pre-Hispanic archeological sites. |
Oaxaca, the
State Capital, declared Humanity’s Cultural
Patrimony by UNESCO, owes its fame to the
beauty and harmony of its architecture, the
richness of its cultural traditions, the
wide variety of its typical foods, and its
soft temperate climate, spring-like
throughout the year. |

|
City attractiveness |
This small town
on the caribbean coast is enjoyable for what
it is, but perhaps more for what it's not.
It's not Cancun, the major resort area
that's about an hour north. For those who
find Cancun too large and glossy and too
lacking in local character, Playa is the
cure: cozy, funky and quite Mexican. |
Puerto Vallarta
has… everything! Located in the center of
the Banderas Bay it is embraced by exuberant
vegetation, bathed by the Pacific Ocean,
heated by a vibrant sun, refreshed by the
summer rain, constantly caressed by the
ocean breeze, nourished by the river waters,
decorated by palm trees and millions of
flowers, contemplated by the moon,
illuminated by the stars, in love with life
and loved by its inhabitants… |

Playa
del Carmen has a sub-tropical climate, which means it's almost always
warm. |
The best
season to visit Puerto Vallarta is from November to May, when the
temperature oscillates between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius and there are
no rains pouring down. |

|
|
Weather during the summer. (northern
hemisphere) |
July to October
is the time for tropical storms and
hurricanes. That doesn't mean there are
hurricanes every week, or even every year,
but it can be rainy and windy this time of
year. |
Average temperature of 25 degrees Celsius |
