Look on a map of Mexico and you will find the
state of Veracruz on the east coast of the country. Similar to California, it is long and narrow, stretching almost 400 miles beside the warm tropical waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Veracruz truly offers the "Best of Mexico" adventure travel and eco-tour vacations. From 18,000' high snow capped dormant volcanoes, down to nearby tropical jungles, secluded white sand beaches, and crystal clear waters, you will find Mexico adventure travel and eco-tours for everyone...without the tourists.

Comments from Dr. Carry Adams

Veracruz offers the BEST of Mexico Adventure
Travel Without All the Tourists
 
Few places in Mexico can match Veracruz in terms of diversity. From sea level to over 18,000 feet, you will find colonial cities, archeological sites, lush green gardens overflowing with exotic orchids, jungles filled with hidden waterfalls, alpine forests, coconut-laden palm trees, and hundreds of tropical birds and animals.
 
You can stroll down the streets of sleepy Mexican towns, take in the beauty of their churches, find excellent bargains on hand-crafted items, devour deliciously fresh seafood, and meet the very friendly and humble people of the state of Veracruz.
 
Although only 2.5 hours from Houston, this "Jewel of Mexico" gets few tourists because most North Americans go to the crowded and highly developed government promoted destinations like Cancun and Puerto Vallarta.

The first time I visited the state of Veracruz, Mexico was in 1996. I was surprised and amazed at the diversity of its terrain and climate. Fascinated with this relatively unknown corner of Mexico, I have repeatedly traveled back dozens of times to explore its jungles, ride its white water rapids, play on its Gulf shore beaches, trek up to its high country, visit its ancient ruins, and swim below its hidden waterfalls.

 

On every trip I took to Veracruz, one thing always stood out in my mind. I rarely saw other foreign tourists! Just about everywhere I went, it was as if I was the first to discover that jungle waterfall, mountain stream, or secluded cave. And the people of Veracruz were so pleasant to get to know. These "down-to-earth" folks were always helpful and accommodating to me. It was them, and not a travel guide book who showed me to the many beautiful places I encountered in Veracruz.

 

So, I decided to share my knowledge of these wonderful places I have found with others by leading small groups of no more than 10 people at a time to discover for themselves the diverse natural beauty of this Mexican state. I have secured the best experienced professional adventure travel guides in Veracruz, Mexico to help make your adventure vacation memorable and worry-free. With over 25 years of combined experience, these local guides and I will be there with you every step of the way. I have also visited many hotels and restaurants to come up with what I consider to be some of the best this state has to offer.

 

YOUR SAFTEY IS ALWAYS MY #1 PRIORITY.

 

Veracruz is so close to the United States and yet - travel agents and other tour providers still have not found this paradise. I have and you are invited. Come join me.

 

So what are you waiting for? This is your chance to visit one of the most diverse and yet relatively unknown parts of Mexico. For more information, email or call me. I will be happy to answer all your questions and help you schedule a vacation to remember.

 

As they say in Spanish, Para servirle!   I am here to serve you!
