Videos from 2022Baja CaravansCopper Canyon Tour Page Join us for this trip of a lifetime with our 3 month "whole Mexico loop" in the Spring of 2024, including the April 8th total Solar Eclipse.. We will explore Mexico's Colonial Interior then head for the Caribbean coast and the Yucatan, exploring both well known Mayan sites and many that tourists seldom visit, like the remote - impressive ruins at Calakmul, near the Guatemalan border. All your RV parks are covered, plus many meals & tours. We will end the trip with some relaxing beach stays on the west coast.We will cruise on Lake Bacalar, sometimes referred to as the Maldives of the Americas, swim in jungle rivers & sink holes, witness thousands of bats emerge from a cave at sunset and observe strange religious practices in the highlands of Chiapas. We will stay at an orphanage in Chiapas. On our last trip we raised enough money to supply it with an extra fridge and a washing machine. The Yucatan Caravan meets in Mission, Texas on Jan 4th, 2023 (border crossing) and returns via Lukeville, Az in early April. The trip OFFICIALLY ends in Mazatlan this season but a 3 day exit from there or Durango is included. Soem longer exit optionsa are optional after the eclipse.
