My husband and I have been going to Mexico ever since our honeymoon in 1981. For our 25th Anniversary, we took a trip to Tulum, approximately two hours south of Cancun and stayed at Dreams in Tulum.
The plane trip from Lynchburg to Cancun takes less than four hours, getting through the airport in Mexico is usually quick and then we take the shuttle to our resort. Tulum is further south than Playa Del Carmen and there isn't as much to do. But a new airport is planned for the Tulum area and more building is taking place. We enjoyed the Dreams resort, the people and the food.





The Ruins at Tulum
One of our favorite things to do when we're in Mexico is to visit local ruins and there are some a few minutes south of the resort in Tulum.




You can take day trips, we took one to Chichen Itza

and another to Isla Mujeres, an island off the coast of Cancun



Of course we use common sense when traveling, but I feel perfectly safe in Mexico. We love the country so much that we go back twice a year; once with the kids to Puerto Vallarta and for our anniversary, to Playa Del Carmen.
Gorgeous photos - I'm not the hugest fan of mexico...but this looked beautifully appealing.......what a wonderful thing to go to a please you love year after year! :-)
