Just having been distinguished as the best tourist destination of Mexico and Central America by the World Travel Awards 2009, Cancun, Mexico really does have something for everyone. As fall quickly turns into winter here in the mid- west, most of us are already thinking about how to get to the nearest sandy beach and tiki bar. And this Mexican gem of a city offers both of those as well as much more! Right now, www.travelzoo.com is offering a 7 nts/ 8 days All- Inclusive (airfare from Mpls included) Cancun vacation package for just $479 per person!

Cancun is situated on the south- east coast of Mexico, where powdery white beaches and turquoise blue waters are the epitome of postcard perfect reality. The beautiful Caribbean Sea allows for some of the best scuba diving, snorkeling and fishing around the world. Cancun has 14 miles of pearl, sandy beaches ideal for parasailing, windsurfing, and swimming with the dolphins, and also boasts the second largest reef in the world.

But if you’re more of a land shark than a water sports enthusiast, Cancun is also home to a few championship gold courses with the best scenery around! Downtown Cancun offers a spectacular mixture of authentic Mexican culture and modernity. From the variety of shopping venues, bars and nightclubs, there is never a dull moment in this Mexican gem of a city. And with the varied choices of cuisine from fine dining, fresh seafood, and chic bistros, you’re sure to never go hungry.

    Interesting article. I just did the west coast of Mexico, Nicaragua, Gutamala, Costa Rica, Panama, and after coming through the canal to Columbia and Grand Caymans. Just like you wrote about, an outstanding set of places to visit. Cancun is a great starting point that I have done before; as well as Cazomel. Can't wait to see you write about many more places and give some links I can use to help lead me to booking them easily.

    Great job girl! We'll have to celebrate! I think we might do this deal instead of going to Puerto Vallarta again. Also, I noticed one reader who wasn't sure of the link to to book the trips, so I thought I'd just mention that you just have to click on the blue hyperlink and it brings you right to the reservation page! See you soon :)
