My girlfriend and I are planning a 2 week holiday in Mexico during October and are looking for advice on the best place to stay!
I DO NOT want to stay in Cancun! What I want from the holiday is to see the Mexican culture, visit archiological sites and explore jungles ...my girlfriend wants the beach and that's about it
We'd also like to be able to hire a car and do some driving, perhaps even on overnight trips.
We also like it quite lively at night, but not in an over-the-top way like Cancun.
Puerto Vallarta looks nice from what we've seen on the web, but we've no idea if it's the right location for what we're looking for.
Where do you recommend we go? And any cheap travel agents/tour operators would also be greatly received!
Mexico is such a huige place we just don't know where to start, so many thanks in advance if anyone can offer some guidance
