waters of the Caribbean. The authors have lived in and written about Mexico
for years, so they're able to provide candid reviews of all the beach resorts,
the best local dining, and the latest, hottest nightlife. Beyond the major
resort areas, we'll show you sleepy beachfront towns, sea turtle preserves,
and fascinating inland towns where you can bargain in local markets. You'll
travel Mexico like a pro with our candid advice and handy Spanish-language
glossary. Also included are accurate regional and town maps (including
site plans of the major ruins), up-to-date advice on finding the best package
deals, a free color fold-out map, and an online directory that makes trip-planning
a snap!
