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.

"This was the perfect itinerary for us, with a fantastic mix of free time, independent exploring and guided tours. We learnt so much from our guide on the ground - she was so knowledgeable and passionate that we couldn't help but be fascinated. Ultimately, the whole process was really easy, and Oliver took on board everything we asked for."
