Central America captivates with a diversity that few other regions in the world can offer: turquoise Caribbean beaches, imposing Mayan ruins, colorful colonial cities, and a joie de vivre that permeates the entire continent. This page contains all of miles-around's Central America travel reports – personal accounts from a region that offers far more than the typical package holiday.
Currently, the focus is on Mexico: from the Yucatán Peninsula with an extensive self-drive tour, through Tulum, Valladolid, and the Mayan ruins, to the five-star all-inclusive resort Ocean Riviera Paradise in Playa del Carmen on the Riviera Maya. The articles are aimed at couples and families who want to discover Central America independently and comfortably – away from organized group tours and with an eye for the extraordinary.
Mexico had long appealed to us – sun, culture, joie de vivre, and impressive Mayan ruins. In the summer of 2025, we fulfilled this dream and explored the Yucatán Peninsula independently by rental car. A road trip through Mexico is surprisingly straightforward and safe – perfect for flexibly discovering the highlights of Yucatán, Tulum, Valladolid, and beyond. Fascinating Mayan sites, colorful colonial cities, turquoise seas, and countless unforgettable experiences awaited us.
