Road trip in Mexico: WHAT YOU HAVE TO BE AWARE OF!

- If you want to go on a road trip in Mexico this is something you NEED TO KNOW.
As we road trip in Tortuga, the vintage VW T2 bus from 1976, we face a few different difficulties. But road tripping in Mexico is also a lot of fun, great adventures and truly magnificent scenery.
Last week’s episode: • ARE WE STUCK HERE? | R...

One of difficulties we face is a road block which is very common in Mexico and something you really have to stay aware of. Often they are not dangerous but they will keep you stock in the middle of nowhere for quite some time. Sometimes for hours.. meaning a great delay in your ETA or worse: Having to drive in the dark (which you don’t want!).
Other times the road blocks are made because locals want cars to take an alternative road (usually because they want potential customers to drive through their town). However, the road blocks can also be dangerous and this is why you have to be careful about them! But as long as you don’t p*ss anybody off and just maintain your good vibes and big smiles it’s mostly not dangerous.
So please hop along, subscribe and join us for new adventures, break downs and big laughs!

Great info and appreciate the video. It’s very true. Anytime you drive in Mexico you need to be careful. You just don’t know what to expect sometimes.
Thanks! No exactly, you really never know 😅
Came back for some more tips and brought my notebook! Great video
@@TheCountryCollectors Ah so happy to know! Thanks
My dream vehicle - to have a VW bus! Nice place that you rented and i like all the greenery in the outdoor spaces. I always try to do something new - currently I am rehearsing to perform in a play. I have never done theatre before and I was cast in the lead!
My dream vehicle too haha 😆 Thanks! Sounds cool, best of luck with it 🤙🏽
Road trips are always fun even if you have to fight traffic.
@@SaltyBeaverExplores Yes, just my words! 🤙🏽
You make everything look so fun, video credit for those amazing shots , many congrats and thanks for sharing guys
Ah thanks for the sweet words! Wish you a beautiful day 🙏🏽☀

Nice trip in Mexico yeah cows on the roadside 🐂🦬👍😊 nice video 📹 👍
Thanks! 🐮🙏🏽🥳
Phew you made it !! Enjoy La Punta ...
Thanks! We will for sure 😜
Hi Frederick & Chris! Nice meeting you! Loving your intro and love your renovated cabin 🤩. Thanks for sharing us the difficulties you encountered when roadtripping in Mexico. But I must say your mini van is so cute. We would love to have one as well 🥰. Good thing you arrived to your destination safe and in daylight. The place where you stayed looks so cozy and so nice. Thanks for sharing it with us. Greetings from Belgium xoxo #jackyandthewifey 👫
Hi there! Ah thank you so much for the sweet words, guys! So sweet of you. Wish you a beautiful day, and best regards from here 🙏🏽💛
Thanks for the information! I enjoy following your journey!
Most welcome! Thanks 🙏🏽
Es muy típico encontrar animales en la carretera, además conducen muy mal!!! 🤣
Gracias por el vídeo y los consejos me habéis hecho recordar mi viaje a México. Un saludo!!
Haha yes I know other countries where this is also very common haha. Kinda funny 😂 muchos mas gracias! Un saludo!🙏🏽💛
This is helpful we’re planing to be in Mexico next month 😊👍
Happy to hear! Wish you the very best travels. Mexico is great🙏🏽🥳
Hi guys! This was a great video. I'm so glad you made it. It could have been worse, cartels stop people on the roads and...so thank goodness it was just the locals. In response to your questions: Because I live in Mexico I feel like everyday I do something for the first time! Haha it's so different here. However because I have 3 dogs I feel like I've kidnapped my freedom. I love them but it's hard to travel. You two are the best! Looking forward to your next video.
Ah thank you! Yes it could have been worse - in Mexico you never know what will happen 😅 But luckily it's often not bad things happening. I like your answers. And I completely understand with the dogs. However they are so cute and you have 3 lovely dogs to share your love with 🐶🥰
Y'all are so dorky LOL. I love it. Great info on the issues tourists may run into while crossing Mexico. The road trip looked like a lot fun. That herd of cows was awesome. Reminds me of when a bus I was on in Ireland had to stop for Lamb crossings. The place you ended up staying looked awesome. How much was it per night?
Thanks for the kind words. Hahaha yeah the “animals suddenly crossing a road” I have tried in other countries too haha. I’m not sure per night what the price is since we made a deal for almost a full month. I think we paid around 8000 pesos for a month 🤔😅
love the drone shots - which drone do you use?
Thanks! The Drone is a DJI Matic Air 😁
Traveling in Mexico sure looks chaotic! 🤔 But that's all part of the experience, I guess...
All the best! Kaat
Haha yeah I guess it is. At least traveling in Mexico is great for sure 🥳🤙🏼
Hola guys! Hope you’re enjoying it! The 2 questions for this episode are:
- In what ways are you kidnapping yourself from the life you really want? 🌎
- When was the last time you did something for the first time? ✨
Please feel free to write a comment with your answers or thoughts about them. I’m curious to know! Hugs, Fred 💛
Thanks for letting us know, your cabin renovation looks awesome
Thank you so much! 🙏🏽
Hi Fred, I’d like to answer the 2nd question. During the summer vacation of this year, we went to Ustica, a small island near to Palermo, guess what, I swam into deep see where I could not touch on the ground certainly with help of Veronica and the lifebuoy，I was so proud of myself. I remember that once when we were at scopello you wanted to take me to deep see but I refused. Next time we can go together. Buon voyage and waiting for your nice video.
Hi Grace. I am so happy to hear that you went to Ustica. I can imagine that it was very beautiful! And I am SO happy and proud to hear that you went to the deep sea! Really nice you overcome your fear and did something new. I would love to go together with you next time. Send all my regards and hugs to the beautiful family. Yours, Fred
You know what was your mistake?!...take secondary roads in rural south of the country, the local indigineous people are not pretty educated, But that doesn't mean it's a generalized issue, oniy in rural south.
Thanks for your opinion! We took this road because there we couldn’t find no better way to go from Acapulco to Puerto Escondido by car 😁
Glad to see you made it. The place you are staying in looks great. It is always nice when you have a nice host.
Thanks! Yes it’s really nice 🙏🏽✨
@@FredsChannel Forgot to answer your two questions. I want to be able to travel whenever I want, but I settled for the 9 - 5 life and it has taken away my freedom for travel. The second question is every year I strive to do something new and I have been pretty successful in fulfilling it.
@@HTEtravel Interesting answers. Thanks for sharing them. I hope you have found happiness and reasons for why you settled for the 9 - 5 life and can accept the now. Otherwise - it is never to late to take a chance 😉 Very nice with a goal of doing something new every year, I like the answer. Wish you a beautiful day ☀🌴
7 tries to get Christmas music 😂😂😂
Haha the plan was actually not to play Christmas music but in the end I gave up and decided to just make a Christmas party in the car 😂😂
I love Christmas music always makes me happy. I didn't realize I was like that driving in Mexico. Glad you made it before dark! Cool accommodations.
Haha yes Christmas music is quite nice! Thank you so much 🙏🏽✨
Hey everything is awesome, little cabin, your van, perfect location to be , drone shots. Both of you look great, the road blocking info is a great info especially for the travellers like us .. great video.
Thanks for the sweet words! 🙏🏽✨
Awesome video guys ! Your VW van brings back some great memories and the place you’re staying is lovely. Have fun Eddie
Thank you so much 🙏🏽☀
Never knew this about driving in Mexico but good to know!!! DON"T PLAY CHRISTMAS MUSIC!!! It's too early!!! So nice to see you guys in your destination safely. Love the tour and love the questions that you asked. Everyday you must do something different and new! Love your video!
Hahahah sorry for the Christmas music! We know it's too early, but both Kris and I are looking forward to Christmas this year haha 😆 Thanks for your sweet words! Wish you a beautiful day 🙏🏽✨
@@FredsChannel Side note, one of us has a Birthday on Christmas! HAHA. Loved your video so much had to watch again!
