While Europe and most of North America are getting cold weather and snow, summer is starting in most countries in Latin America. In the article, we are bringing you tips for the three most popular destinations of Daytrip’s customers: Mexico, Chile, and Costa Rica.
Summer in Mexico
Alright, let’s get one thing straight with Mexico. Mexico’s summer is technically at the same time as European summer. However, the location of the country has one advantage.

For reference, below is a graphic by the renowned travel magazine Travel + Leisure further highlighting the Mexican seasons and the best time for travel.
