Finding the accessible in an inaccessible place...Mexico is not known for it's stellar wheelchair accessibility. Today at The World on Wheels, we personally search the town of Ensenada, in Baja California, to find the accessible features you'll need to visit in a wheelchair: http://tinyurl.com/ajj5994

At The World on Wheels, it's our first full day in Ensenada. Emotions flow as we visit the neighborhood my wife used to live in and hasn't seen in four decades. This is also the day we have those delicious chilaquiles: http://tinyurl.com/blzm93n

Yep, the reporting is overblown and one sided. Truth be told, the only thing that keeps me from driving down to Mexico more often is the hours-long, frustrating border crossings. I love it down there.

Here is a eye-opening report on the gun violence in the US which shows how major US cities have more gun violence than the most violent countries in the world.  Americans should not travel to New Orleans for Mardi Gras since it is ranked #2 in the WORLD for gun murders, nor even to Phoenix, Az.!  American tourists are not coming to Mexico for their lack of being informed about the reality here in Mexico and depending on sensational news reporting of the most gruesome infighting between drug gangs. But Canadians/Swiss/Italians/Spaniards are coming in droves to enjoy our 80` winter weather! http://www.theatlanticcities.com/politics/2013/01/gun-violence-us-c...

It's been a long time since we've driven into Baja. American tourism is on life support here amid reports of drug cartel violence. I'm warned by well-meaning family and friends to not even think about it. Are we crazy for doing it anyway? I don't think so. Today on The World on Wheels, we start a brand new adventure...a road trip to Ensenada, Mexico, with new reports, photos and videos: http://tinyurl.com/alhu9h3

Las Villas de Bellavista.... take a look at our direct bookings program at TheTopTravelClub.com and see if is suitable for your own promotions...no cost if you can add to our member offers.  Perhaps some bonefishing at Ascension Bay?

Yes, Tulum is noted for having no electricity and candles are used in hotels, restaurants, etc.  The government is aware of the growing demand for ecotourism and promotes this focus on their many tourist web sites, so areas are being protected from ravenous multinational interests not only on the coasts, but in the historical highlands of Mexico where preservation of traditional villages with Colonial buildings is being protected from unregulated building and where Mexican culture is promoted by restricting cheap imports sold in folk art markets. These towns have been named Pueblos Magicos  Self-sustaining museums are built now on archeological sites such as Xochicalco in the State of Morelos and sustainability in hotel projects will continue to be subject to the scrutiny of the the environmental groups working to preserve Mexico's incredible natural resources.

The RM south of Playa del Carmen, from Tulum down to the Belize border, is very environmentally conscious; it's characterized by nature reserves, and local government policy restricts development with limits on height construction and density.
