As the world puts forth monumental efforts to save the planet we've decided to help our Mexican travelers enjoy their vacation with as small an impact as possible. Below, we're giving away the bank on ways to actually save money on your Mexican travel while enjoying your green vacation.

 

Before starting your green travel, experts urge drivers to buy Mexican auto insurance online. Buying Mexican car insurance online means you get the best policy at the best price, and you can print your Mexico insurance policy immediately, so there's no question as to whether or not you're covered.  

 

Choose a Green Mexican Hotel

Choosing a green hotel means more than simply staying at a place that plants trees outside. Green hotels make a conscious effort to reduce their footprint and the footprint of their guests every day. Hotels like Le Meridien Cancun Resort and Spa in Cancun or the Playa Del Carmen

Viva Wyndham Maya (among others) have all made commitments to help its consumers go green. To help, there are several ways for you to do your part:

1. Bring your own toiletries. By bringing your own refillable toiletries you not only reduce the amount of plastics that hotels consume, but you also make sure your personal products work consistently on your hair, skin, and other body parts. Save the mini-shampoos for those travelers who forget. 

2. Remember to turn off the thermostat, the tv, and the lights while you're not inside your room. We intentionally left "turn off the water" from the list to not offend anyone's intelligence, but decided to mention the fact that it did cross our minds. Unless you're renting the penthouse suite, most hotel rooms heat up (or cool down) very quickly. By turning off the thermostat when you're experiencing the Mexican culture, your won't be heating and cooling your unused space. Turning off the lights and tv save on electricity. You can easily live comfortably when you return while letting the room stay green when you're away.

3. Use your "Do Not Disturb" wisely. Using the "do not disturb" sign effectively takes the worry out of having room service come in and remove your slightly used towels. This saves a tremendous amount of water on laundry, electricity on vacuuming, and chemicals on cleaning. Don't forget you will also create smiles of sunshine from the cleaning staff who don't have to pick up after you.
