Tulum is fab for the beach, local ruins and downtown. Valladolid was amazing - lots of colourful buildings and great food. Sian Ka’an was incredible and Isla Holbox was really relaxing too

Mexicans have some Crazy driving so be careful with intersections and round about, also often they go 20km about limits and lights off or overtaking both sides (cars on the left and bikes/motorbikes on the right). In case of accident don’t move the car and take pics/video as first if possible.
