Mexico: Maya Ruins and Caribbean Beaches
Free · open it in the app and customise every day.
The Riviera Maya blends powder-white Caribbean beaches with the mysterious ruins of the ancient Maya.
The mix
Turquoise water at Cancún and Isla Mujeres, the cliffside ruins of Tulum, and swims in the jungle sinkholes called cenotes.
The wonder
A day trip to Chichén Itzá, one of the New Seven Wonders. If you hold a US visa, you likely won't need a separate Mexican one — check before you book.
