Before delving into our favourite places in Central America, I would like to call attention to the fact (as obvious as it may be) that everyone travels differently. Phil and I enjoy exploring cities, meeting different types of people (preferably those without psychopathic traits), learning about the history and culture of the place we are […]

On Friday morning, we left San Ignacio and headed to the Guatemalan border with team Notier’s Frontiers. The crossing was fast and easy for team Riding Around the World as we had made photocopies of all our documents beforehand.

After a couple of days of doing nothing spectacular, we decided to do a day trip to Tulum on Tuesday, December 19. It is under an hour’s ride away from Playa del Carmen and is comprised of three areas: the ruins, the city, and the beach. We started our day with a visit to the ruins […]
Visiting the Mayan ruins of Chichén Itzá was our activity for the day on Saturday. The ride was around 1.5 hours from Mérida and we arrived at the site while it was still morning.
