This 2026, Mexico continues to be one of the most beloved travel destinations in the world—and for good reason. Consistently ranked among the top 10 most visited countries globally, Mexico welcomes millions of international visitors every year. In 2025 alone, more than 47.8 million travelers visited the country, and tourism is expected to continue growing as more people discover everything Mexico has to offer.
From vibrant cities and world-class cuisine to breathtaking beaches and rich cultural traditions, Mexico offers experiences that appeal to every type of traveler. Whether you’re looking for relaxation, adventure, culture, or incredible food, you’ll find it here.
At Royal Holiday, our top priority is ensuring that our guests feel safe and comfortable throughout their entire journey; from the moment you arrive at the resort to the moment you return home. We also believe that informed travelers enjoy better vacations. That’s why we want to share some of the exciting improvements happening in Mexico, as well as important information to help you travel with confidence in 2026.
THE WORLD CUP IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, Mexico is preparing to welcome visitors from around the world. The government has made major investments to improve infrastructure and transportation, making travel to and within the country easier than ever; especially in the host cities: Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey.
Iconic stadiums such as Estadio Azteca, Estadio Akron, and BBVA Stadium are being renovated and upgraded to provide an even more exciting and comfortable experience for fans. These improvements will help ensure that visitors enjoy world-class facilities during one of the biggest sporting events on the planet.
Mexico City’s international airport has also been undergoing major upgrades to improve security, expand capacity, and modernize its infrastructure ahead of the tournament. These improvements will benefit travelers long after the World Cup ends, making future trips even smoother and more enjoyable.
UNDERSTANDING THE TRAVEL ADVISORY
Because we want you to travel with confidence, it’s helpful to understand what the U.S. travel advisory for Mexico means.
The United States currently lists Mexico as Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution. This is the same advisory level applied to many popular destinations around the world. It does not mean that Americans should avoid traveling to Mexico. Instead, it simply encourages travelers to stay aware of their surroundings and make the same smart decisions they would make when visiting any major city in the world. In fact, other major cities in Level 2 include Paris, London and Milan. For any unforeseen event, remember the importance of purchasing travel insurance to protect yourself and your loved ones.
In fact, millions of Americans visit Mexico safely every year and continue to return because of the country’s welcoming atmosphere, incredible hospitality, and unforgettable experiences.
As with any international destination, we recommend taking simple precautions such as:
- Keep your belongings with you at all times. In crowded areas, carry your bag in front of you.
- Extra tip: A small bag or fanny pack can be a convenient and secure way to carry essentials.
- Avoid unlit or isolated streets when possible.
- If you go out at night, try to stay in well-lit areas and travel with companions.
These are the same common-sense precautions travelers follow in cities across Europe, Asia, and the United States.

Traditional Mexican cuisine was recognized as world heritage by UNESCO in 2010, and this wasn’t just for nothing. With thousands of traditional dishes, your culinary experience in Mexico brings past and present in just one bite.
