Mexico: 10 Day Yucatan Roadtrip
Route of Yucatan Road Trip
If you’re looking to take the roads less traveled and avoid the tourist resorts in Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula, we’ve got some inspiration for you. Our trip to Mexico was initially conceived as a few relaxing days on a Mayan Riviera playa, sipping cool drinks under swaying palm trees. While planning, we stumbled upon a blogger’s post on Yucatan regional cuisine and drooled over photos of steaming sopa de lima, tikin xic wrapped in banana leaves, and panuchos stuffed with cochinita and pollo pibil. Our stomachs took the lead and our itinerary was shaped into a 10 day roadtrip across the Yucatan in search of local Mayan dishes found only in cities like Merida, Izamal, and Valladolid. Of course, we had plenty of cenote and beach time - just not in the usual spots.
