Mazamitla, Jalisco is BEAUTIFUL!!
Mexico's nature is amazing and more specifically, central Mexico is beautiful. In this video, we visit the picturesque Pueblo Magico of Mazamitla in the state of Jalisco.
Truly, you don't need a beach to find beauty in Mexico, even though that's what many people across the world might believe.
This weekend, we were delighted to explore a pueblo magico (two actually!) in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. We got to see our first Mexico waterfall, try our first Vampirito, and explore Mazamitla with a local, our friend Emma. We even took some time for trying Mexican candy before hiking down to the waterfall.
Before coming here, hundreds of our subscribers urged us to travel here, saying it's one of many places you must visit in Mexico. Do we recommend it for Mexico places to visit? You bet! Mexico's amazing nature extends beyond beaches and margaritas (though they are nice sometimes too). Traveling in Mexico is so memorable and special. We truly cherish all the opportunities to try new things and learn more about the culture.
In today's travel blog, we're going to show you an excellent option for tourism near Guadalajara, México. We love to encourage international travel and this is just one more reason to become an expat.
Put this place on your BUCKET LIST!!
The Pueblo Mágico Tapalpa amazed us with breathtaking waterfalls, a mysterious valley, & charming culture.

In this Jalisco Mexico vlog 2018, stayed in the Pueblo Magico, Tapalpa for a little less than a week. This provincial mountain town is truly something special. While in this Magic Town, we enjoyed the mouth-watering food of the mountains of Jalisco while soaking in the relaxing essence of nature surrounding the town.
So many people recommended we visit Tapalpa, Jalisco and now we know why! We just wish we’d come sooner! During our trip, we also made our way to Valle de Piedrotas, or Valley of Large Stones, what is considered the main attraction of Tapalpa. Later, we journey through some sketchy dirt roads to find what we later learned was the largest waterfall either of us have ever seen, and perhaps the most stunning thing we’ve ever seen in nature. This Mexican waterfall, called Salto de Nogal is an absolute MUST SEE if you are in Guadalajara or Lake Chapala Jalisco, Mexico. Heck, even if you aren’t in Jalisco or Mexico, we think this experience was practically unparalleled and a definite must.
What do you think of our adventures in this travel Mexico vlog? We'd love to hear from you in the comments! Where should our Tangerine Travels take us next?

this might be the cheapest city in mexico
With $10 in hand, we're attempting to see if San Cristobal de Las Casas, Chiapas has the lowest prices in Mexico.
►Subscribe to our channel!
Today we are attempting to exchange the price of one US movie ticket for a full day's worth of food and drinks. We love doing this $10 challenge in new cities because it forces us to try new food, explore parts of the town we've never seen, and break out of our shell.
We were shocked by some of the prices in San Cristobal de las Casas. Beyond food, the cost of living in Chiapas seems...well, you'll have to watch today's Mexico travel vlog and find out!
RESTAURANTS WE RECOMMEND IN SAN CRISTOBAL
1. El Tostador - excellent, fresh coffee with incredible prices!
2. El Ciprés - Delicious breakfast (especially those garlic potatoes) with some the lowest prices in town.
3. La Viña de Bacco - we recommend it for the cheap drinks ONLY (not the food)
4. Pachamama - Tasty pizza and salads, plus some well-priced wine and drinks.
5. Kinoki - A cool restaurant with an upstairs balcony, perfect for people watching. The oven-baked potatoes and pasta is great!
6. Restaurante Plaza Real - Breakfast combos (80 pesos and up) that will leave you stuffed! The food is also amazing.
7. El Frayle - We haven't tried anything except the sopes, but those were the best I'd tried in all of Mexico!
8. Carajillo Cafe - Another great place to try Chiapas coffee, or beans from other regions of Mexico for that matter. Not only are the atmosphere and food excellent, you get the coffee made right at your table with an explanation of the process.
WHAT TO DO IN SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CASAS
1. Walk around Mercado Santo Domingo where you'll find thousands of handmade treasures, unique to this city.
2. Visit Iglesia De Guadalupe and enjoy the picturesque view of the entire city—preferrably at another time of year so you avoid the rockets and other explosives.
3. Hang out in Plaza de Paz where you can buy local pastries from the area, soak in the view of Catedral de San Cristóbal, and people watch.
4. Try the local coffee. We recommend El Tostador especially, but you can find good local coffee almost anywhere.
5. Sample the food. Food in San Cristóbal de Las Casas is so flavorful, rich, and unique. Try as much of it as you can!
6. Enjoy everything there is to see, do, and taste while strolling on one of the many walking streets. You have everything from shops, vendors, restaurants, street music, and everything in between.
7. Get off the tourist path. We enjoyed doing what most tourists do in the city, but we strongly suggest you look into what this Pueblo Magico has to offer on the side streets, the nature, and those hidden gems you can only find from going out and exploring.

one of the most beautiful places in mexico
Las Grutas de Tolantongo may be Hidalgo's best secret - mountainside thermal water pools, caves, and a turquoise river!
►Subscribe to our channel!
It's our first time in the Mexican state of Hidalgo and we're driving deep into a canyon to experience the thermal water pools and mysterious Grutas de Tolantongo. We could not have been more excited to experience the magic of this canyon paradise in person and it did not disappoint. Despite the cold temperatures in Hidalgo at this time of year, we happily soaked in the therapeutic properties of the thermal waters in the mountain.
In this Mexico travel vlog, we also experience the turquoise-colored river of Tolantongo. We found out that it has this beautiful color because of the minerals in the water. On our last day in Grutas de Tolantongo, we made the grand finale a trip to the main gruta, or grotto in English. Again, Tolantongo did not disappoint us with this mysterious cave filled with the source of the warm thermal waters. It was the perfect experience for another cold morning in Hidalgo.
Also in this travel Mexico vlog, we include:
1. How much hotels cost at Grutas de Tolantongo
2. Entry fees and parking prices in Tolantongo
3. Tips for visiting Grutas de Tolantongo Hidalgo
4. Important information for traveling to Tolantongo
5. What we will do differently when we return to this canyon paradise.
This was one of those Mexico experience that really made us say, WOW, Mexico is amazing and it never ceases to amaze us. Does this Mexico travel vlog make you want to visit? If you get the chance, we highly recommend visiting Grutas de Tolantongo and we don't think you'll be sorry you did.

Our FAVORITE thing to do at LAKE CHAPALA, MEXICO
Nothing is better than the natural healing properties of this thermal spa at Lake Chapala.
SPA: hotelspacosala.com /
If you're looking for a little zen in your life, this is the place for it. Let nature's healing qualities make you feel better. As expats living in Mexico, Spa Cosala is #1 on our list of things to do near Ajijic, Mexico.
This Mexican spa uses the natural thermal waters at Lake Chapala and funnels those qualities into an amazing spa experience! If you get the full VIP spa treatment, it's under $30 USD at today's exchange rate - for Americans in Mexico, that's a pretty darn good price!
That service includes 5 various thermal baths such as a chocolate bath, mud bath, red wine, and apple cider vinegar baths. They do change the baths up from day to day, so you might be in for a suprise!
After finishing up with the thermal spa, there are natural saunas with fresh eucalyptus leaves that really do a lot to enhance the experience! After you finish up with that, you can then go onto a reflexology walk or relax in a hammock.
If you're looking for a cheap spa in Mexico, this is the place! Located in San Juan Cosala, Jalisco on the shores of Lake Chapala, just a short drive from Guadalajara!
Every time we leave this place, it's like we are floating on a cloud! Absolutely pure bliss!

How Expensive is Guadalajara? MEXICO CHALLENGE: $10/day
How expensive is Guadalajara, Mexico? Can you eat three meals a day for under $10 USD in Guadalajara? Is it expensive to live in Guadalajara? Before visiting the city, we had these questions too.
That's why we took on the challenge to see if we could feed ourselves, eating out in México for an entire day on just 185 pesos (the current exchange rate). See if we could do it as we explore the cost of living in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
Mexico, in general, is much cheaper than the US and other westernized countries. If you're thinking about becoming an expat and moving to Mexico, you probably want to know more about the cost of living in various places. We think this $10 challenge is an excellent measure to see just how cheap or expensive a city is.
We've done a number of these $10 challenges on our Tangerine Travels channel, so be sure to check out our other Mexico travel vlogs to gauge the cost of living in various cities around Mexico!
11 Things we just DON'T get about MEXICO
After spending three months here in Mexico, there are just sometimes that we think.... Mexico is confusing!
As expats abroad, every day in our daily vlog we do our best to continue figuring out Mexican norms and figuring out México in general, but there are 7 particular things that we still don't quite get.
In today's video on why Mexico doesn't make sense, we talk about:
- Specific Spanish phrases that make our gringo brains explode
- Something about driving in Mexico
- One way Mexican culture is confusing (hint: kissy, kissy!)
- An article of clothing that almost all Mexicans seem to wear
- The schedule of things
- Ordering one specific type of food in restaurants
- And the WHOPPER... you'll have to watch the video to find out.
Bottom line? Sometimes, Mexico is confusing. There are just some things we don't get about Mexico. Certain differences between the United States and Mexico we have to get used to. Heck, maybe they're just things we will never understand about Mexico. And that's okay! It's all part of the adventure as we are traveling in Mexico.
If you have any thoughts on our bumbles and confusion, please share them in the comments. We are always trying to continue learning Mexican culture and become better familiar with the country, day by day.
