TRIP NOTES:

• This trip is designed to explore one of Mexico's most iconic traditions: the Day of the Dead. On October 31st and November 1st, altars are erected to welcome the deceased who "visit us during these days of the year."
• This trip will take us to the birthplaces of this tradition: Tzintzuntzan, Janitzio, Santa Fe de la Laguna, and Pátzcuaro. The trip includes visits to cemeteries, allowing us to experience the magic and mysticism of this wonderful tradition. Please note that these tours will be on foot and visits will take place in the late afternoon and evening. These cemeteries are popular with both locals and tourists.
• For these days, we recommend bringing comfortable shoes and warm clothing.
• For the rest of the trip, please bring: mosquito repellent, sunscreen, a hat, comfortable shoes, and warm clothing. For Colombian citizens, Mexico does not require a visa. You only need a round-trip plane ticket and a passport valid for at least six months after your departure date. Your stay must not exceed 180 days.
• The currency in Mexico is the Mexican peso. Be sure to exchange your money at the airport or in Mexico City. It's important to have enough cash because many establishments do not accept card payments. However, you will easily find money changers.
• Your guide is there to assist you throughout your trip, recommending things to do in your free time, as well as advising you on where to go and where not to go. Mexico City is mostly a safe city to walk around; however, there are areas that should be avoided, and there are safe transportation systems.
