1 Week in Mexico on a Yucatán road trip! Starting & Ending in Cancun!

We packed so much into our 1 week in Mexico doing a 1 week road trip around the Yucatan Peninsula starting and ending in Cancun! We visited Playa del Carmen where we did a Skydive in Mexico, Tulum, many cenotes near Tulum, Chichen Itza, more cenotes near Chichen Itza and finally we relaxed on Isla Holbox! If you want to see a lot of Mexico but only have 1 week in Mexico, I really recommend this Mexico itinerary!
