Highlights Tour -
The city of Veracruz is located on the Gulf of Mexico 250 miles east of Mexico City. Veracruz city has been called the Gateway to Mexico because of its deep water port. Cargo ships have docked here ever since the Spanish conquered Mexico in the early 1500's.

- Malecon (the prominade near the ocean)
- Cafe de la Parroquia

Coatepec, que hacer en un fin de semana
Coatepec es un pueblito mágico de Veracruz considerado la capital del café de todo México, acompáñanos a descubrir qué hacer en Coatepec este fin de semana.
Las actividades que te proponemos realizar en Coatepec son:
*Hospedarte en el bosque de niebla
-Hay una antigua caballeriza en medio del bosque que está disponible para que la rentes a través de airbnb, si no conoces airbnb, te estás perdiendo de lugares increíbles como este a unos precios excelentes, dale click a este enláce para crear tu cuenta ahora mismo y reservar la caballeriza con un descuento de $450 pesos.
*Recorrido turístico
-Hay dos recorridos en Coatepec, te recomendamos el Piojito, es el mejorsito, nosotros nos subimos al magibus pero parece que vas en un microbus.
*Comer en los Arcos de Belem
-La comida está deliciosa, imáginense que Rosy dijo que le gustaba más el mole de ahí ¡que el de su abuelita!. En serio es muy sabroso, no se que le ponen a la comida pero está deliciosa. El mejor lugar para comer en Coatepec, punto.
*Subir al mirador del cerro de las culebras
-Sube a pie al cerro, pero encuentra las escaleras por que si no si que te vas a cansar recorriéndolo todo por la rampa de los autos. Ve lo más tempranito que puedas, ten en cuenta que lo abren a las 10am.
*Visita la Parroquia de San Jerónimo
-Está bonita la iglesia, lo más padre es su atrio y sus fuentes, no necesitas más de 15 minutos para recorrerlo y te queda cerca del parque Hidalgo.
*Visita el palacio municipal de Coatepec
-Lo que vale la pena del palacio municipal es un mural que narra pictóricamente la historia del Pueblo. También hay unos baños públicos que puedes usar si ya te anda
*La casa de los Azulejos
-Venden un montón de artesanías interesantes, nuestro local favorito fue el de Noemí que tiene su tienda llamada Mirlo, su trabajo es genial, te lo recomendamos mucho.
*Visita el museo del café
-Toma un taxi y pide que te lleven al museo del café, el recorrido dura como 45 minutos y está padre por que puedes probar un café muy rico al final del recorrido. Te garantizo que terminando no volverás a ver el café de la misma forma.
*Come churros en la plaza
-Los tradiconales churros preparados, son super ricos y baratos, la gente hace fila por hacerse de una bolsita o un plato. Es algo que debes de probar, no importa que estés a dieta, si no los comes te vas a arrepentir.

9 Ways To Make Family Vacations More Affordable
1. Stay closer to home
Airfares don't look like they're going to drop anytime soon.
Road trips are always a great option.
Check out your state's and neighboring states' official tourism Web sites for ideas.
2. Think off-season
If it's high season somewhere, it's low season somewhere else.
In the summertime, you'll find deals in destinations like Florida, Arizona, Mexico, and Caribbean islands like Aruba and Puerto Rico. Sure, it's gonna be pretty darn hot—that's why it's low season—but so what? Choose a family-friendly hotel with an unbeatable promo package, a nice pool, and air conditioning, and you'll have a great time.
3. Can't stand the heat?
Then head to a little mountain town known for its skiing.
In the summertime, these towns become playgrounds for active families.
Go mountain biking, alpine sledding, hiking, and horseback riding.
Summer lodging costs a fraction of what it does during ski season.
4. Aim for the fringes
Even at the most popular summer resorts, certain weeks sell out more slowly, or not at all.
The big-value weeks tend to fall on the fringes of summer.
If your kids aren't in elementary school yet, aim for the outskirts of summer.
5. Keep an open mind
Sign up for e-mail deal alerts that let you know where the great deals are.
Let serendipity decide your family's next vacation spot.
6. Join the AAA
This one's a no-brainer.
Membership entitles you to discounts on an enormous range of travel services,.
You can chop up to 20 percent off your lodging bill at major hotel chains.
And you can shave 10 percent off your bill at popular restaurant chains.
7. Think outside the weekend box
Your vacation doesn't need to begin and end on a weekend.
Play around with your travel dates.
8. Get a kitchen
It's easy to underestimate how much you'll spend on food.
When your family eats out three meals a day, every day, for an entire week, it gets expensive.
Having a kitchen will give you control over how often your family eats out.
9. Stay at the YMCA.
The best-kept open secret in family vacations.
The handful of lodge- and cabin-based YMCA family camps are often overlooked.
Prices at these not-for-profit camps are downright affordable.
Now you know some ways to have a great family vacation.
Make sure your vacation is insured too.
