Why You Should Create Your Own Vacation Plan
Creating your own vacation plan can save you A LOT of time and money. You can create a personalized itinerary that will be more cost-effective and keep you from missing out on great activities. What is that saying… “Measure twice and cut once.” You know what you want your trip to look like. You may just need a few recommendations to help along the way.
Creating your own vacation travel plan can be beneficial for several reasons. First, it allows you to tailor your trip to your specific interests and preferences. This means that you can choose the destinations, activities, and accommodations that suit your individual tastes and needs, rather than following a pre-determined itinerary. This can help ensure that you have a more enjoyable and fulfilling vacation.
Second, creating your own travel plan can save you time and money. By researching and planning your trip in advance, you can often find better deals on flights, hotels, and activities, and avoid overspending on unnecessary expenses. Finally, having a well-planned itinerary can help you feel more organized and in control of your trip, which can reduce stress and make your vacation more relaxing and enjoyable.

Mexico is a country that is rich in culture, history, and natural beauty. The country attracts more than 50 million international tourists every year.
If you are looking for a getaway from the usual tourist destinations and want to experience something different, you should consider visiting Mexico. It can be a fantastic experience for those who wish to explore the country’s culture and history. If you are someone who wants to explore the natural beauty of Mexico, then it can be an amazing experience for you as well. What is so special about Mexico (besides the culture and food)? It’s the diverse landscapes from region to region.
Let’s start with where do you want to go? No idea yet?
Mexico is a country that is rich in culture. It has the most diverse landscape, with different regions and climates. You can choose from a few of the most popular regions:
1) The Yucatan Peninsula: This region is characterized by its beaches, jungles, and ancient Mayan ruins. Perhaps the favorite place to visit for most tourists visiting Mexico for the first time.
2) The North: This region is known for its colonial cities and traditional Mexican culture. Many cities, such as Monterey.
3) The Pacific Coast: This region has many beautiful beaches, making it a popular tourist destination. There are incredible beach towns littered along the miles of coastlines in Mexico. All very unique in their own way.
4) Central Mexico: This region is home to some of Mexico’s tallest mountains and deepest caves. This is my personal favorite part of Mexico with its extreme beauty and mild climate year around. There are many Pueblos Magicos in Mexico, but there is something special about the ones in Central Mexico
5) Mexico City: A bustling city with many museums, restaurants, parks, and cultural sites to explore. Mexico is one of the largest cities in the world, diverse and very cosmopolitan. I just don’t have enough adjectives to describe CDMX. You must experience Mexico City at least once in your lifetime.
6) The Sierra Madres Occidental Mountains: These mountains are home to some of the most beautiful in the world. If you are an adventurer, then look no further.

When choosing where to stay during a trip to Mexico, there are several things to consider:
- Location: Mexico is a large and diverse country, and the location of your hotel will be an important factor in your overall experience. Consider the area where you want to stay, whether it’s a bustling city center or a more secluded beach town.
- Budget: Mexico offers hotels at a wide range of prices, so it’s important to determine your budget and look for options that fit within it. Keep in mind that prices can vary depending on the season and other factors.
- Amenities: Different hotels offer different amenities, so it’s important to consider what’s important to you. Do you want a hotel with a pool, a fitness center, or a spa? Do you need a hotel that’s pet-friendly or has childcare services?
- Safety: Mexico has a reputation for being a safe country, but it’s always important to do your research and choose a hotel in a safe area. Look for hotels that have good reviews and are located in areas that are known for being safe.
- Reviews: Before booking a hotel in Mexico, it’s always a good idea to read reviews from other travelers. This will give you a good idea of what to expect from the hotel and help you make an informed decision.
You might want to book a hotel near the airport, but this might not be the best idea if you want to experience the real Mexico. You could also consider staying in an Airbnb; this is mostly a good idea as a budget-friendly option. There are a few other options that you can choose from, depending on your preferences and budget.
All-inclusive is excellent for those who value a package deal and do not have to make several individual decisions about your trip and dining. I recommend for those adventurous types consider Boutique Hotels that are off the grid, so to speak, but add a lot of value in being absorbed in the Mexico experience.
Research the Area and Tours Nerby
You are in Mexico. What’s next? With so many places to see and experience, where do you start?
If you are planning to visit Mexico for the first time and looking for some of the main must-see attractions that fit your budget, plan, and book in advance.
I have found Viator, which offers a variety of packages and tours in different cities in Mexico. They also provide a feature called ‘Trip Advisor, which allows you to read reviews from other travelers on the attractions they visited. This will give you more information about what to do while you’re there. Another great idea is just walking the city! This was one of my favorite things to do between seeing the main attractions. I experienced most of the incredible sites that were not on a tourist recommended list and found them by just exploring on my own. Ask the hotel about some of the must-see places nearby.
Last Minute Details
Finally… Consider common sense safety precautions while traveling Mexico as you would any other place you travel. Mexico is mostly extremely safe, especially in known tourist areas.
Last-minute details are the final details that must be taken care of before a trip or event. These can include packing your bags, ensuring you have your travel documents, confirming your reservations, and checking that you have all the necessary items for your trip. Taking care of last-minute details can be important to ensure that your trip goes smoothly and that you have a pleasant and enjoyable experience. Some tips for handling last-minute details include:
- Make a checklist: Creating a checklist of everything you need to do before your trip can help you stay organized and ensure that you don’t forget anything important.
- Give yourself enough time: Don’t leave everything until the last minute. Allow yourself plenty of time to take care of all the necessary details so that you don’t feel rushed or stressed.
- Confirm your reservations: Make sure that all your reservations (e.g., flights, hotels, rental cars) are confirmed and that you have all the necessary information (e.g., confirmation numbers, addresses, contact information).
- Pack wisely: Pack only the necessary items, and leave any unnecessary items at home. This will save space and make it easier to carry your bags.
- Take care of any necessary documents: Make sure you have all the required travel documents (e.g., passport, visas, vaccination records) and any other essential items (e.g., insurance information, contact numbers).
Let’s remember our position as a quest in another country and do our best to speak and walk humbly with dignity and respect for our surroundings: we’re the ones coming here to visit or live our best lives, and we, like many people trying to get in another country – are appreciative of the opportunity. Thank you for having me, Mexico.
As always, we appreciate you and… Live Con Todo
