well , there's your problem! I work in Mexico. Gringos need a Mexican driver, period.

allegedly. Who knows who sent that text. Gringo driving down lonely Mexican road at night, what could possibly go wrong.


They were stopped and robbed.

The Yucatán is extremely nice and safe. Especially Tulum. Not saying bad things can’t happen but Tulum is to Juarez as Beverly Hills is to Compton. I think Mexico has likely abandoned all hope for the rest of the country to focus on keeping this one area safe.
I believe a gas leak or some building issue like that before any violent attack. Mexico isn’t known for its strict adherence to building code and many structures are left unfinished to avoid paying taxes, is what I heard.
It bears repeated, Tulum and the Yucatán are amazingly beautiful. Would go back in a heartbeat.
