  • Join us on the once-in-a-lifetime trip to celebrate Day of the Dead in both Mexico City, & Oaxaca.
    Día de Muertos is celebrated all over Mexico, and we were lucky enough to book a last-minute trip to two iconic locations to join in the festivities. The celebration is one-of-a-kind to remember and honour loved ones lives, where annual parades, face painting, offerings and partying occurs for well over 1-week!
    In this Vlog Travel Guide part 1, we visit Ciudad de Mexico to watch the incredible Dia de Muertos parade inspired by James Bond Spectre for an incredible celebration, party and all round good vibes!

      @@laurarobertson_ Please? Don't compare Mexico with Latinoamerica The rest of Latinoamerica dont call it Día de Muertos They celebrate it very different from that of México They celebrate this special day just like the rest of the world with full of sadness where in Mexico it is celebrated big with happiness & parades Why aren't you in Peru?? Because it's not the same No international tourists go to Latinoamerica to celebrate it but to the North American country...Mexico I'm sure you don't compare yourself to Americans like Canadians don't compare themselves to Americans Well that goes for Mexico & Latinoamerica too

      @@ricardomartinez4341 Thanks for your comment and letting me know this! I have never been to South America, so cannot comment on what they do there, but was told by locals they celebrate Day of the Dead there too. I did not mean to cause offence, more so show people the joy of this festival in Mexico.
      I would love to go celebrate in Peru, or other countries for that matter in the future. Thank you for clicking on the video, and for your comment. I am just a tourist trying to enjoy this celebration and share my experiences! :)

    Dia de Muertos was already celebrated way before the Spectre Movie. The only thing that was added was the festival in the streets due to the movie, but the celebration itself was already a cultural thing comemorating their relatives who passed away, nonetheless great video and keep it up 👌

      Yes! That is what I was referring to, just the celebrations in Mexico City. In the next video we head to Oaxaca to experience some of the more traditional celebrations, so I will dive more into the culture and history on that one! Thanks for the support :)

    En la Ciudad de México no solo se celebra el Día de Muertos con el desfile, muchos barrios y pueblos dentro de la misma tienen sus propias formas de celebrarlo, las cuales resultan ser las auténticas; y no digamos las formas en que se celebra en cada localidad a lo largo y ancho del país.
    Ante todo el Día de Muertos es una festividad que se desarrolla más en el plano de lo doméstico y lo familiar, el desfile es simplemente un producto turístico para hacerlo más llamativo y acorde con lo que un turista espera de una “celebración”, cuál desfile en Dinseylandia.
    Otra cosa, la imagen que usaste para ilustrar este vídeo es de la ciudad de Campeche, en el Estado homónimo, NO es la CDMX. Dicha ciudad y estado tiene sus formas particulares de arquitectura, urbanismo, tradiciones y fisonomía, por favor no promuevan una confusión.

      No estoy seguro si se perdió en la traducción, pero sí explico que el desfile solo se celebró por la película, pero hay otras celebraciones tradicionales en México. Si desea ver mi video más reciente, visito Oaxaca para una celebración más tradicional.
      Gracias por tu comentario, te aseguro que no era para ofender, así que por favor no devuelvas el comentario ofensivo.

    You see day of the death is a Mexican celebration no a Latin American celebration. Many countries in Latin America might have copied the celebration to an extent. Just to give you an example that it's a regional centro-southern Mexican celebration. The states that celebrate this day the most are Guerrero, Oaxaca, Michoacan, Morelos, Puebla, Veracruz, Tabasco and Mexico City since many Mexican from these states have moved to Mexico City. The other Mexican states don't celebrate this day that much, but they are familiar with it.
    Why in these states? Because it has to do with the different tribes that lived in those states that had or have special tradition with death. No all tribes in Mexico were the same even when they all belong to the Mesoamerican race. Mesoamericans (native people of Mexico) settled mainly in Mexico and some parts of Centro America. Native people of southern Centro America to all the way to Southern South America were actually an entire different race.
    Which leads to Latin America is just a region where languages derived from Latin are spoken so there is NO a latin race since all countries in the region are composed of different races. You can have look at the demographics of Brazil for example and you will see that Brazil has the biggest population of African decent outside Africa, also the biggest population of Japanese outside Japan, large population of Italians, Portugueses, German, Lebanese and many more. So it's completely different composition than Mexico's and yet these countries are in Latin America (the region). Every race when they settled in any area bring their own culture, customs, traditions, ways to see live, so on and on and when they mixed they make a complex society with their own culture. So this is the case of every country in latin america.
    Yes, you will see similar things in some countries specially from Mexico because Mexico is the single largest producer of Spanish language media content (TV, films, music, news) in the world which gets distributed to 140 different countries in the world. A funny thing happened in the Amazon region in Brazil where the Brazilian government found an isolated tribe that spoke only Mexican Spanish because they were watching tv with a satellite dish and they were watching Mexican soap operas to say the least the Brazilians were mad:)

    Gonna repeat what some have already mentioned, but is beacuse is important. Dia de muertos didn't start in Oaxaca, it was already celebrated by teh Azteks before the spaniards arrived, than it was combined with catholic elementes and the modern day of the dead was born, but again no state can claim it's origin. Second, the only think the Bond movie brought up was the parade, Dia de muertos is at least as old in Mexico in it's current form, the parade was added in CDMX but that was it. It has also absorved some elements from Halloween (since is in a near date and has some similarities) like the costumes and masks, and it will continue to evolve as time pass. But like i said before, is important to remark that the celebration all across the country is very representative of mexican culture. Although is specially celebrated in Oaxaca, Mexico city and surrounding states, Michoacan, etc. but in some southern states is basically just the personal ofrendas and some trips to teh cementery to clean the graves of your relatives.

    El día de los Muertos sólo se festeja en México y no en toda latino america, como aseguras para tú información. Mucho antes de la filmación de james bond ya se festeja día de los muertos y no es gracias a ese filme como dices incorectamente.
