Solo woman traveller seeking reccos for a two week trip in October.
Hey everyone!
It's my first trip to mexico and its my first solo trip ever! I'm looking for a mix of culture & nature - with mayan ruins & cenotes a definite on my to-do list. I live in Goa, a beautiful beach state in India so not very keen to look at beaches, unless it's absolutely spectacular. Since I'm a total noob, I decided to ask chatgpt for some help in planning my vacation. I'm flying in from Toronto and this is the route I was recommended - Mexico City→Oaxaca→San Cristóbal→Palenque→Bacalar and flying back from Cancun.
This already seems like too many destinations for me since I want to be atleast a little bit slower. Would you say this covers what I'm looking for? What would you add/drop from this. Please help me out!
