Day of the death in Merida. Tips & tricks:

1) It gets really crowded at some locations so don’t drive downtown on those days. Ubers and Didis are a great way of getting there. Hop on and off a couple blocks from your destination and walk. Some streets may be closed. If you’re staying somewhere near downtown it’s better to walk or take a bicycle. There may be some city bikes available but you need to download the app “En Bici” (free rides till dec 2023)

2) There are some street artists face painting people if that’s something you want to do. Look for someone that has a couple clients and ask the price before hand.

3) Street food and snacks are everywhere have cash with you, preferably use $200 pesos or smaller bills, some won’t receive larger bills. Go for the crowded carts instead of the empty ones. Churros and Esquites are a must try.

4) Merida is pretty safe city but use common sense as you would in a crowded environment.

5) The “paseo de las animas” is amazing. You can be part of it. It starts in the General Graveyard (Cementerio General). Make sure you wear white.

6) walking tours in the general graveyard are also great experiences. They have English speaking guided tours, they tell stories and some historical facts.

7) We have room available at our campsite for overlanders and travelers. Uber from our campground to centro is around $150 pesos. Send us a message to check availability.

8: Have fun and enjoy this amazing tradition.

Si gustan de la historia precolombina del centro de México, Este video es para ustedes.

Vamos a explorar la reconstrucción de Tenochtitlan en la que tuve el honor de participar por invitación del investigador Thomas Kole quién realizó las digit...
