We recommend using a backpack for your convenience, or a medium-sized suitcase if you prefer.
A daypack is also essential for carrying everyday items. Space is limited on our transportation, so there is a limit of one main piece of luggage per person. You will be responsible for carrying your own luggage.

If you're from the US traveling to Mexico all US appliances and devices should work without a power converter or power adaptor. If your device can run on 127 volts or is dual voltage but the plug won't fit in a Mexican power outlet you'll need to bring a suitable plug adaptor for Mexico such a Type B plug adaptor or a universal adaptor.

Tap water is not safe to drink. There will be potable water to drink in the hotel. 

We encourage our travelers to travel sustainably. Please bring a reusable water bottle.

Breakfasts will be served at your hotel. Dinners are enjoyed in local restaurants. In Mexico you can experience the vast array of wonderful food available in this region. Your Trip Leader will be able to suggest great restaurants to try during your trip. To give you the maximum flexibility in deciding where, what, and with whom to eat, generally not all meals are included in the trip price. This also gives you more budgeting flexibility. 

In Mexico City, like in any big city, you can expect to try all types of food, from street food to fine dining, from Mexican gastronomy to any specialty. Your leader will make sure to show you the most traditional dishes and places so you can experience all types of local flavors.
