FAQs

• Lima: What does a modular trip mean? A modular trip means fellow travellers will join and leave at various locations. There’ll be some goodbyes, sure, but there’ll also be plenty of hellos with new like-minded travellers.
• Mexico City: What can I expect when travelling in Mexico? Flexibility is key when you’re travelling in Mexico. The itinerary will give you a good idea of what your trip is gonna look like. But routes, schedules, hotels & modes of transportation may be subject to change without prior notice because of local circumstances or events beyond Contiki’s control.
• Mexico City: Which currency should I bring? You’ll need to bring USD cash with you, as it’s the only way to pay for the Free Time Add-Ons on this trip. You’ll receive the cost of each option in your Welcome Email. Plus, we recommend you bring Visa and/or Master Card (American Express or Discover cards aren’t widely accepted).
• Mexico City: Can I get access to an ATM when in Mexico? It depends on where you’re travelling to. Mexico has lots of ATMs (just be careful of those sneaky fees). But you’re better off carrying cash when visiting rural places.

Remember to keep it light as you'll have to carry and lift your own luggage at times and even walk short distances with it.

But we’d suggest you bring:    • Summer clothes: shorts and lightweight tops essential for keeping cool.  • Warm overcoat: there’ll be colder parts of your trip, even in summertime.  • Good walking socks & shoes: keep comfy on any terrain.  • Sturdy backpack: one you don’t mind getting dusty too!   Weather in the Mexico is unpredictable, so please make sure you also bring these items with you:  - Teva-style sandals (thongs or flip-flop sandals are not suitable for hikes)   - Swimming (bathing) suit & towel   - Light to medium fleece jacket   - Gore-Tex (or similar) rain jacket   - Shorts, T-shirts, Long pants, Long-sleeve shirt, Hat or cap   - Sunglasses (preferably polarised)   - Socks (athletic style socks for walking & hiking)   - First aid & medication - aloe vera gel, sunblock or sunscreen of the highest SPF possible, insect repellent, hand sanitiser or gel, moisturising cream, pain relief (e.g. aspirin etc for headaches or muscle pain) motion sickness medication   - Water bottle   - Plastic Ziplock bags (to protect valuables from drizzle, rain etc)
