Planning a last minute trip to Cancun, Mexico |
Planning a last minute trip to Cancun, Mexico, requires flexibility, spontaneity and a willingness to compromise, but the end result will be a fun-filled trip to the storied resort town that features sun-dappled beaches on the Yucatan Peninsula and loads of other great adventures.
If you are traveling from the United States, you must have a valid, up-to-date passport. If not, you won't be taking any last minute trips out of the U.S.; even an expedited request will not put a passport in your hand for 2 to 3 weeks.

Best things to do in Cancun |
Depending on where they're from, travelers seem to treat Cancun as different destinations.
Europeans tend to treat Cancun as a gateway to the world of the Maya. They'll spend a couple of days on the beach, then set off inland for the ruins and the Yucatan’s beautiful colonial towns, Merida, Izamal and Valladolid. But for workaholic Americans who tend to want to unwind on the beach with a little adventure thrown in, Cancun is perfect.
There are any number of excursions from half to full day trips that provide an added memorable element to the luxury of vegging out on the Caribbean beach experience.
