Visa

U.S. citizens and residents (green-card holders) may enter Mexico without a visa for up to 180 days. Valid passport required. Online entry form (FMM) is required on arrival.

COVID

Mexico is open to travelers. No testing, no quarantine, no vaccination required.

Yucatan

If you want to relax and explore in pleasant weather, visit from December to April. This season is also most expensive. Beware of spring breakers in March and early April.

Since early May, the increasing temperatures and humidity make the exploration pretty exhausting. But it is flamingo season in Rio Lagartos. September and October are the stormiest months, so you might want to avoid them altogether.

Beautiful Mayan Adventure

Yucatán – Beautiful Mayan Adventure

Chichén Itzá is a world-famous archaeological site that was once one of the most important Mayan cities. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most visited travel sights in Mexico.

With its first settlers dating back to 550, Chichén Itzá became a religious, military, political, and commercial center that at its peak was home to 35,000 people. A massive Chichén Itzá Pyramid (or El Castillo or Temple of Kukulcan) is the most astonishing Mayan ruin inside the archaeological site.

El Castillo has also recently become one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, making it quite popular among tourists. So we recommend arriving as early in the day as possible to avoid crowds (doors open at 8:00 am).
