Solo female traveler, mid 30s. I want to spend about 4 weeks in Mexico or Latin America. I’d like to not rent a car. I’m okay with using public transit, colectivos, hiring a driver or taxi. I’d like to be able to walk to restaurants, stores, activities. My Spanish is good, but not fluent. Where should I go?

    Don’t do it. Please don’t. As someone married into a family of Mexicans who are very open about the state of Mexico please don’t. If my fluent wife who is familiar with the area would not feel safe then I stress to not do it.

    It’s a shame. Beautiful country. Wonderful people. But you are very much at the whim of others and please do not.

      I second this, your idea is very unsafe. Please find another destination, there’s plenty of options in this world
