A driving tour from Oaxaca to San Cristobal de las Casas and Palenque: Part One by Alvin Starkman

Street Scene
Copoya, Chiapas
This 2,000 kilometer driving tour serves the needs of vacationers to Oaxaca who also want to take in the sights in central Chiapas. It is also useful those who want to at least consider visits to the Pacific coastal resorts in Oaxaca and the Gulf beaches and cultural sights in the state of Veracruz… all without foreclosing a side trip to Puebla. The south central circuit of Mexico provides travelers with a leisurely and culturally diverse driving segment within the context of a two or three week vacation, with virtually no backtracking. read more

Mexico Highway Maps, Driving from Nogales to Uruapan by Discussion Thread Forum

HI, MY SELF AND MY FAMILY ARE TRAVELING TO MEXICO IN A FEW WEEKS. WE ARE ENTERING THROUGH NOGALES AND TRAVELING TO URUAPAN, MICHOACAN. I HAVE BEEN TRYING (UNSUCCESFULLY) FOR SEVERAL WEEKS TO FIND A MAP OF MEXICO THAT HAS THE NEW HIGHWAYS (CUOTAS?) SHOWN. I KNOW FROM PAST EXPERIENCE THAT THE SMALLER HIGHWAYS ARE JUST TO NERVE WRECKING. DO YOU KNOW IF THERE IS ANY WHERE THAT I COULD GET MY HANDS ON THIS TYPE OF MAP. DOES THE GOVERNMENT EVEN PRODUCE ONE? I APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.

We will be driving (yes, my brother insists upon driving instead of riding the bus) from Puerto Vallarta to Guadalajara next week, and return. It would be nice to take the fastest route in one direction and the most interesting or scenic route in the other direction.

Oaxaca to Guadalajara: The good.. the bad.. & the ugly by Discussion Thread Forum

After getting set up to stay in Oaxaca for a while I decided last week to make a quick trip to Guadalajara and Ajijic to pick up some stuff I left there in storage and haul it down to Oaxaca. I had to drive, as I needed my truck to haul the stuff. I had planned to travel alone but at the last minute a young Mexican lady who lives in Mexico D.F. but had been spending Semana Santa in Oaxaca decided to ride with me as far as D.F. read more

Headin' South: Cuernavaca to Oaxaca by Discussion Thread Forum

January 22nd … Adios Cuernavaca…Hola Oaxaca. Not sure how long it would take us to get to Oaxaca, we took off about 7 AM north out of Cuernavaca on Hwy 95D towards Mexico City and shortly thereafter turned south on Hwy 115D (which became 160 at Cuatla) towards Cuatla and Izucar de Matamoros. Although it looked longer on the map than continuing south from Izucar, the plan was to get as soon as possible to the Autopista for Puebla and then go south to Oaxaca on toll roads all the way. Although expensive, toll roads are the way to go as far as I'm concerned.

Headin' south - Taxco to Cuernavaca by Discussion Thread Forum

January 21st….After getting a couple more hours of cardio-vascular workout hiking the streets of Taxco this A.M. trying to find just the right silver trinket as a gift for my son's novia we took off for Cuernavaca about noon. No rush, as it is only about forty miles from Taxco to Cuernavaca using the Acapulco to Mexico DF toll road, Highway 95. Arriving before 1pm, poorer by $71 pesos for the three tolls charged on even this short stretch of road, we got off the Cuota and cruised Cuernavaca from south to north on the old free highway 95 looking for a hotel.
