Car Rental MexicoRenting a car in Mexico is a fairly straight forward procedure provided you carry a credit card, are over 25 years old and possess a valid driver's license. If you can comply with all three points then it's just a case of choosing the type of car you want according to your budget and needs.

 

Mexico recognizes driver's licenses from all over the world, so you don't have to worry about obtaining an international driver's license. In terms of rates, Mexico ranks as one of the more expensive countries to hire a car especially when compared to prices in the United States or Western Europe.

 

Rates will vary according to region and most times they won't include VAT, which is 15 percent. They can also fluctuate due to holiday seasons.

 

Common sense points like checking your car is fully insured and finding out how much damage premiums are levied by the rental company should be taken into consideration. It's also wise to inspect your car carefully at the time of renting it, and it wouldn't hurt to make a check list. Any damage however insignificant should always be documented.

 

Also, be aware that Mexico is notorious for levying high drop-off charges in case you're unable to return the car to where you originally rented it from. This is usually between 20 to 40 percent of the actual price of renting the car, so it's best to carefully plan your trip ahead of time if you want to avoid paying additional costs.

Tapalpa - Pueblos Magicos

Nestled amongst rolling green fields and pine forests, the town of Tapalpa provides the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the modern-day city. Lying 90 kilometers south of Guadalajara - the nation's second-biggest urban center - it is impossible to mistake the red-thatched roofs of Tapalpa for anywhere else. The air is clean and fresh, as it should be for a town situated 2,200 meters above sea-level, while the surrounding ample open spaces are ideal for nature walks and horse-riding.

 

Tequila - Pueblos Magicos

The name gives it away but the town of Tequila is famous for producing one of Mexico's most iconic drinks. Located 60 kilometers to the northwest of Guadalajara - Mexico's second-largest city - Tequila was named a Pueblo Magico in 2003.

 

Mexcaltitan - Pueblos Magicos

There's something fascinating about man-made island-cities. Perhaps, being enveloped by water gives an allusion to a fairy-tale setting and that by traversing it means you've set off on a journey into the unknown. Mexcaltitan, which is in the State of Nayarit on the western coast of Mexico, is one such place. Historians say it was founded in 1091 by a tribe called the Mexica and was originally known as Aztlan. The Mexica would later famously set out on a pilgrimage from the island that would lead them to the founding of Tenochtitlan - the cradle of the Aztec civilization - and which is now present-day Mexico City.

Useful Travel Tips for the Adventurous Globetrotter

Here are a list of common-sense travel tips when traveling to developing countries

 

Cosala - Pueblos Magicos

The idyllic town of Cosala lies on the Pacific coast of Mexico in the Sierra Madre Occidental - a sprawling 1,500-kilometer mountain range that extends from Arizona through to Guanajuato - in the State of Sinaloa. The town is famous for its surrounding lush, green vegetation which gave rise to its Pre-hispanic name Cozatl which means "the place of surrrounding beauty." Cosala is widely regarded as a romantic getaway due to its fairy-tale architecture and super relaxed atmosphere and it was declared a Pueblo Magico back in 2005.

 

Jerez - Pueblos Magicos

The wonderful city of Jerez, which is the birthplace of the celebrated poet Ramon Lopez Velarde, can be found 57 km to the east of Zacatecas in the state of the same name. Geographically, Jerez lies in a large, flat valley which sits at the entrance to the Tlaltenango Canyon. With a dry, temperate climate Jerez is ideal for the traveller looking to experience a traditional Mexican town within a natural environment.
