replying to @travelskills @travelskills #TravelSkills No and yes...Its not a country you can just go anywhere, which while true everywhere more the case in Mexico. The major spots you should be fine.
A6 When I lived in #SanDiego I knew lots of people who often drove south across the border. on @News8 & @thecwsandiego this week I shared a #Travezoo offer at @Rosarito_Hotel that incl. #FastPass, which cuts border wait time on drive back: https://t.co/eY1E1QpQGX #TravelSkills
A7. There’s no BAD part of Mexico for food! As long as you’re eating locally - inside big resorts the food is generally not as good. #TravelSkills

@AllianzTravelUS Not just there but everwhere 🙋😉

A8: Caribbean tends to be calmer - Pacific waves are often meant for surfing. #TravelSkills https://t.co/FEjkX6A7QA
replying to @AllianzTravelUS @AllianzTravelUS TIP Be very careful swimming on both sides but esp the Pacific. Don’t go in unless you’re near a lifeguard stand. #TravelSkills
replying to @AllianzTravelUS @AllianzTravelUS A8 Cabo is a great place to hang out BY the beach, but you can’t go in. Too dangerous. #TravelSkills
replying to @DarleyNewman @DarleyNewman I"ll leave the fried worms to you, Darley. :) #TravelSkills
A8: Doesn't matter to us! There are plenty of great beaches -- and great places to stay -- on both coasts: https://t.co/0r6hnJT5Zu #TravelSkills
A8 Both are great, but we love the postcard-perfect white sand and turquoise waters of the Caribbean/Gulf Coast side! #TravelSkills

A8. Caribbean for body or hand boarding. The Pacific for surfing!https://t.co/c73vmyjVtD #Travelskills
replying to @sightDOING @sightDOING Agreed. The sand is often better on the Caribbean side as well :) #TravelSkills
Q8 For Mexican beaches, do you prefer the Pacific coast or Caribbean/Gulf coast? Why? #TravelSkills
replying to @AllianzTravelUS @AllianzTravelUS TIP The Sea of Cortez on the eastern side of Baja is perfect for kayaking #TravelSkills
First trip to Mexico (Cozumel) in 1980. Slept in a hammock for two weeks and only drank beer ;) #TravelSkills
So, here's the secret to enjoying Mexico beaches. Become friends with Richard Branson. Watch the sun come up over the pyramids at Tulum on the Caribbean side. Then hop on Branson's private plane and catch the sunset at Puerto Vallarta. Problem solved. A8 #travelskills

Mexico City is one of the most cosmopolitan places in North America. Have you been? #TravelSkills
replying to @travelskills @travelskills #TravelSkills do not eat any fruits or vegetables that are not cooked or have a skin to peel off. Also, ice only in high end resorts. Montezuma’s Revenge is real and unfortunately fairly likely to happen. Though only lasts a day usually.
replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis Nice. Similar. Filled with $1 shots of tequila #springbreak #travelskills
replying to @travelskills @travelskills A2: A trip to Mexico is a culinary adventure! We recommend everyone visiting for the first time to truly savor the authentic Mexican cuisine and to explore how it varies from region to region. #TravelSkills #RosewoodHotels

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A7. Only been to Cabo San Lucas but loved Margaritavilla and a restaurant right by the marina. I love seafood. so anything with seafood and a margarita! #TravelSkills #travel #margarita
A8 I’m partial to beaches along #BajaCalifornia. most in #cabo are now swimmable (#Medano is an exception) but they are always pretty! #BajaCaliforniaSur #mexico #TravelSkills
RT @BBC_Travel: A7: You can find good food all over Mexico -- but be careful how you order it! #TravelSkills https://t.co/lIUbD81AR7
replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A6 From Tijuana. 10 days: Had $15 lobster-Puerto Nuevo; got lost and slept in car (photographed Milky Way)-Catavina; attacked by sea lice-Mulege; looked for Arturo-Loredo; let my Bohemian flag fly-Todos Santos. Ended at beach in Cabo. Felt safe. #travelskills

replying to @GabeSaglie @GabeSaglie I loved @LasVentanasCabo but we couldn't swim in the ocean. Steep drop off and strong currents. #travelskills
A8. Caribbean/Gulf side - warmer water, shallower, cleaner (or at least it seemed like that to me) and generally seems calmer than Pacific. #TravelSkills

A9. We know travel insurance is always a good idea, but when you're traveling overseas where your health insurance doesn't cover you, it's imperative. #TravelSkills
replying to @AllianzTravelUS @AllianzTravelUS A9 Yes, it’s always a good idea to have travel insurance, and to know what you have BEFORE you go #TravelSkills
