Which tour operator to choose for Mexico and what's the climate like in spring?

Hi, I’m planning a trip to Mexico in spring 2019. Has anyone here done it before, and if so, which tour operator did you use? What’s the climate like during that time? Thanks for your tips! Looking forward to hearing from you! 😊

I'm going alone, so I'll contact the hotel, the airline, and the car rental company—no need for a

Thanks so much, but I’d rather go for a guided tour. Have a great day!

I did it on my own, but I saw there are French receptive operators in Mexico offering guided tours. Just search on your search engine; it should come up.

I’ve heard of Yucatan TRAVEL PLANER

Thanks so much, I’ll look into it. Have a great day! 🙂

I tried, and a ton of links popped up.

Oh yes, lots of links, but that's not what I'm looking for. We'd like to take an organized trip from France for 15 to 18 days, traveling from Mexico City to Cancun, but there are a lot of buses and I don’t know the road conditions.🙁

The roads in QUINTANA ROO are good roads—those are the only ones I know.

Road conditions like in France. Depending on your budget, all options are available. I see all proposals: flight, transfer, tour, guide, chauffeur. What more do you need? You should ask for quotes and tell them what you want. It’s a question of euros and availability (minimum 3 weeks). If the local agents don’t seem reliable, check with the big chains. Just keep in mind that they delegate to local agents anyway, so you might as well go directly with them.

The roads from Mexico City to Cancun are good. Sure, the trip is long, but there are countless things to discover. I live here, so if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

If you live in Mexico, put Mexico instead of France—it’ll be clearer!

Hi! If you're there, try to find a tour operator for the lady (or gentleman). 😉😄😄

I'd love to, but he's not responding. I know a private guide who knows the country very well, has a great reputation, and is also renowned for wildlife. So, if you see this message and want to discover an authentic Mexico far from mass tourism, contact me.

It's a constant on the Forum—you ask the question, you read the answers, but you never find out what happens next.

Hi, Thanks so much for your reply—I won’t hesitate to reach out again at the start of the year. Thanks, and have a great day

Since I've been away, I haven't checked all the replies, but believe me, I'll keep you posted once I find what I'm looking for—still nothing for now... Thanks to all of you.

Hi, You can check out FB: Guide Francais Mexique Best, Karl

Thanks so much. Right now, I'm still torn between Mexico and Cuba after reading a lot on the forums. But I really want to thank everyone who replied—I'll keep you posted. Have a great evening, everyone, and see you soon.

You’ll run into the same issue in Cuba—finding a French-speaking guide. Back then, I turned to the Alliance Française, but that was in 2004, already 😅.

I agree with you, I don’t think it’s that easy either. I’m doing some research, thanks again

Hi there,

For Cuba, I can recommend Onel (onelfb@nauta.cu) – Havana. He speaks French really well and can organize visits and excursions for you on the spot.

Thanks Petinka, I’m looking into it based on your reply, but I’ve had to delay my trip a bit because of my passport renewal (the wait times are super long, and they can’t give me a precise delivery date—so not cool...) Have a great evening and thanks for your kindness.

Hi Matnat,

I get you. We used to travel on our own too. Back when my wife and I were young and free 😏. But with age and kids, we’ve gotten into the habit of using local agencies now—if only for lack of time. Anyway, we went to Mexico with a local agency from the Terres des Voyageurs network (www.terresdesvoyageurs.com).

Hope that helps for the future.

Have a great day
