Featuring magnificent pre-Columbian pyramids, contemporary world-class gastronomy, and everything in between, you won’t be surprised to hear that Mexico cultural holidays pack a hefty punch. You can tick off some of Mexico’s cultural giants in the utmost comfort, with a private tour of Chichen Itza at dawn, a guided day trip to the Mesoamerican city of Teotihuacan, and an exclusive boat ride through the Sian Ka’an Biosphere. While these mammoth sites are truly mesmerising, we also recommend an array of experiences that veer off the beaten track, ensuring your time in Mexico is unique, authentic and memorable. In El Rosario, you can watch the awe-inspiring natural phenomenon of millions of monarch butterflies migrating; in San Miguel del Allende, you can enjoy a gastronomic tasting tour through the streets of Mexico’s culinary capital; and in Oaxaca, you can delve into the world of artisanal handicrafts at family-run workshops. All in all, our hand-crafted cultural holidays in Mexico are sure to leave the mind, soul, and tastebuds fully indulged.

"We planned and booked our two-week honeymoon in Mexico with Original Travel and could not have had a better experience. From the first time we reached out, our travel consultant Oliver was immensely responsive and knowledgeable, helping us put together a great itinerary in no time. We were able to make adjustments easily and rely on Oliver's recommendations of where to go, what to see, and how to avoid the crowds. We loved every stop of our trip in Mexico and all the guides we worked with on the ground were very friendly and knowledgeable. What's more, we had great feedback from our local guides about their relationship with Original Travel. We had a wonderful trip and would highly recommend booking with Original Travel - we certainly will be doing so again."

"Great trip. The highlights were exploring the vintage market in Mexico City, dinner on the roof top overlooking the church in San Miguel de Allende and wandering the streets there."
