Mexico

The official language of Mexico is Spanish. However, in major tourist areas such as the Mexican Pacific, Jalisco, Quintana Roo, Mexico City, and Guadalajara, English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants, and shops, making communication easier for visitors.

The official currency of Mexico is the Mexican peso (MXN). In tourist areas such as Quintana Roo and the Mexican Pacific, U.S. dollars (USD) are accepted in many places, but it is recommended to exchange your currency for pesos for local purchases and to avoid fluctuations in the exchange rate. Euros (EUR), although not commonly accepted, can be exchanged for pesos at exchange houses, banks, and international airports. In addition, ATMs are available in most tourist areas, and credit cards are widely accepted.

Mexico has a great climatic diversity. In destinations such as Quintana Roo (Cancun and the Riviera Maya), the climate is tropical, with warm temperatures throughout the year. In the Mexican Pacific, such as Los Cabos, the climate is hot and dry, ideal for enjoying the beaches. Jalisco and Guadalajara have a temperate climate, with mild winters and warm summers. Mexico City, on the other hand, has a cooler and milder climate, suitable for exploring the city at any time of the year.

To enter Mexico, most tourists only need a valid passport. Citizens of the United States, Canada, the European Union, and other countries do not require a visa for tourist stays of up to 180 days. It is essential to check the specific requirements according to your nationality before traveling.

The Tourist Card is a document that all travelers must complete when entering Mexico. This form is delivered on the plane or at the border and must be kept throughout your stay, as it is necessary to leave the country.

No specific vaccinations are required to enter Mexico, although it is recommended to be up to date on standard vaccinations. This ensures a safe and worry-free stay while you enjoy your trip.

Mexico offers a variety of transportation options, including domestic flights, buses, taxis, and private transportation services like Uber. In addition, in many tourist areas, it is possible to find organized transport services that facilitate excursions and transfers.

Mexico is a popular and generally safe tourist destination for visitors. As with any other place, it is recommended to take basic precautions, such as avoiding displaying valuables and following local safety recommendations. Staying in renowned hotels also contributes to a safe and comfortable stay.
