What travelers are saying

"The trip was well laid out. Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The only complaint is some of our travel documents that were sent out were not in English. If your sending documents out correspondence should be in both the native language and the language of the people the correspondence to. Other than that a great first time experience."

What travelers are saying

"Our trip to Iceland was absolutely stunning and Charlie the Traveler curated an amazing and adventurous trip for us that kept in mind all of the attractions that were on our list and many other gems this beautiful country has to offer. We hit a few roadblocks with our tours due to weather conditions and volcanic activity in the area, but Charlie The Traveler and his team were on it at every moment and were able to provide us with alternative tours that did not take away from the overall experience. His team is led by individuals that truly cares about your experience. If you need a perfect trip planned then Charlie the Traveler is the way to go. This trip has been absolutely perfect and can’t wait to come back and explore it again."

What travelers are saying

"I recently returned from the Costa Rican wildlife safari. I was a bit concerned with Covid however every place was extremely clean and had places for you to wash your hands before you even walked in. This was a trip I was actually supposed to go on in 2020 however it was postponed, waiting so long the expectations were high. I was definitely not disappointed! Patricia our guide was absolutely wonderful, extremely knowledgeable and cater to our every need. I would highly recommend this vacation. Also everyone that I met in the community was extremely gracious and kind. The majority of these people work on tourism and unfortunately in the last year have not had any. Booking this trip would not only be an amazing adventure for you but it would also be amazing for the people in the community"

Mexico Tour Selection Trips

  • Mexico is large and diverse enough to warrant multiple tours; the Yucatan peninsula alone can easily fill more than one tour itinerary. 
  • If you’re concerned about safety, check U.S. State Department warnings about which areas to avoid; though most of the country is perfectly safe for travelers. 
  • If you want a taste of the “real Mexico,” choose a tour that includes accommodations in one or more of the country’s old haciendas, many of which have been renovated and reopened as luxury hotels. 
  • Some tours include immersive Spanish lessons where you can learn the language as well as explore the region.
  • A good tour of ancient history and culture might take you to Mexico City (for the pyramids outside town), the Yucatan (for the ruins at Chichen Itza and Tulum), and to Chiapas for the ruins at Palenque. 
  • Guides at archaeological sites have special certification issued by INAH - your tour operator should take advantage of their services
  • Be aware that Mexico is not necessarily ADA friendly. If you need special assistance, please ask the tour operator for details on how they will accommodate you
  • If meals are included on your trip, ask if they are local specialities or prepared to cater to a foreigner's palate. The former will provide a more authentic experience, especially for regional fare - much of what you may think of as “Mexican” is actually heavily Americanized.
  • If you choose to stay in an All-Inclusive, check that there are day tours that will suit your preferences
  • Remember that standards for lodging are different than in other countries. What a tour operator might call 5-star may be different than what you would call a 5-star. Authentic accommodations are often a real treat, but some guests feel more comfortable staying with familiar international chains
