I loved the Mexico City episode- but all of these on the main disc were quite good. Be careful if you plan to show these to classes if you are a teacher- there are a few scenes that reference/focus on alcohol- but there are many many other worthwhile scenes, including on the bonus disc- especially the market and food parts. PREVIEW FIRST- unless you want to have your students watch the travelers taking tequila shots!

Ultimate Bore
A friend and I are preparing for a trip to Mexico and I purchased this DVD thinking it would provide video footage and appealing ( educational and quirky?) insight into Mexico. The film footage was from the 3rd Century - edited in without attempting to change the dated color or create some semblance of context. Ian Wright spent most of his time lying on the side of the road waiting for "fun" - as if, we too were going to relish his hitch hike to hell. I would love to say that there was an element of camp - or anything worthy of passing this DVD on to fellow travelers, but it was poorly written, filmed, edited, and way too much money for such a lifeless production! Next time I will definitely pass on Globe Trekker DVD's as a source of inspiration for travel.

Parts were great
I am a middle school Spanish teacher and have used a lot of Globe Trecker films. This one would be five stars if it were not for the part on Acapulco. It is just sleezy. I could not use that part. The guide shows himself runing while wearing a speedo. It is absolutley vulgar. Then he says one of the major reasons for coming to Acapulco is for sex!!! Then dancers that look like strippers get a few seconds of air time. I could not use it for my classes.

Nice mix of tourism and culture
Although some reviews indicate that this DVD shows the extreme side of a trip to Mexico (including old busses, questionable hotels, etc.), these videos have a great mix of tourist attractions and culture. If you want to understand more about the country than just nice hotels and premium beaches, this is a great DVD
