On December 10, we rode for a little over an hour from Cancún to Playa del Carmen where we rented a apartment for a month at 27,898 MXN (~1,783 CAD). Playa del Carmen is another tourist-infested beach city with not much else aside from beaches, spas, and shopping. As a result, we didn’t do much for […]
On Sunday, we rode for a little over three hours from Mérida to Cancún where we rented an apartment for a week at 5,900 MXN (~397 CAD). With its palm tree-lined streets, pristine white beaches, and turquoise-blue waters, it is easy to see why so many people visit this beautiful beach city. Last year alone, the […]
This is just a quick post to let our readers know that our resident musician was finally able to make some time for music and, as a result, we have new videos of Mexico City and Taxco up on our YouTube channel. Enjoy, subscribe, and share! 🙂
Visiting the Mayan ruins of Chichén Itzá was our activity for the day on Saturday. The ride was around 1.5 hours from Mérida and we arrived at the site while it was still morning. Entry tickets cost 242 pesos (~16.42 CAD) per person, which was more than what we paid at Teotihuacán, but understandably, as we saw far […]
It was a 2-hour ride on Thursday that got us from Campeche to Mérida. We rented a room through Airbnb for 413 pesos (~27.90 CAD) a night and stayed for three nights. After getting cleaned up, we went to a nearby mall for dinner and ended up watching a late screening of Justice League. It […]
We left Ciudad del Carmen on the morning of Monday, November 27, for a 3-hour ride along the coast towards the city of San Francisco de Campeche. It was a hot and humid day so about mid-way through our trip, we stopped to cool down and have a seafood lunch by the beach before proceeding […]
On Saturday morning, we left Palenque and rode about five hours through another bumpy road to Ciudad del Carmen. Despite the less-than-ideal road conditions, the ride was more pleasant than the one that got us to Palenque. We did get stopped at a checkpoint with the federal police; however, the encounter was a painless […]
On Friday morning, we rode a little over an hour from Palenque to the Cascadas de Agua Azul – a series of waterfalls famous for its turquoise-blue waters found on the Xanil River. The water has a high content of calcium carbonate and various other minerals so all the rocks and trees that the water […]
On Thursday morning, we left San Cristóbal de las Casas and headed towards Palenque. It was a long day on the road with close to five hours of riding on what was the worst road we have encountered in Mexico and a lunch stop in Ocosingo. The road from San Cristóbal de las Casas to […]
We stayed in and worked for our entire Tuesday in Tuxtla Gutiérrez and then on Wednesday, we did a short ride of a little over an hour to San Cristóbal de las Casas. This city was chosen as a stop for one night because it shortened our ride to Palenque, our next stop where […]
