Best Time to Visit Mexico
For a luxury escape, the best time to visit is between December and April. During these months, the weather is dry and pleasant, avoiding the hurricane season in the Caribbean and the heavy summer rains in Mexico City. Late autumn (November) is also an excellent choice for those looking to witness the vibrant Day of the Dead celebrations in the capital.
Currency & Money
The official currency is the Mexican Peso (MXN). While major credit cards are universally accepted in high-end hotels, boutiques, and restaurants, it is advisable to carry some cash for smaller purchases or tipping. A standard tip for service in Mexico is 10% to 15% of the total bill, often added voluntarily to the check.
Getting Around Mexico
The most efficient way to travel between major regions like Mexico City and the Riviera Maya is via domestic flights; Aeromexico offers frequent 'Clase Premier' service. Within cities, private chauffeured cars or high-end ride-sharing services like Uber Black are recommended for safety and comfort. For inter-resort travel in the Riviera Maya, private SUV transfers are the gold standard.
