In the midst of violence across Mexico, many U..S travelers have concerns about vacationing there during Spring Break. At Charlie Brown's Goodtime Travel they say there's been concerns but so far it's business as usual. "Travel so far has remained pretty much constant with what it had been." says owner Charlie Brown.
Brown says your best bet is to stay in the touristy areas such as the southern resorts far away from the US - Mexico border. "I do not recommend under any circumstances, going to Juarez or Tijuana or any of the actual border towns." he explains.
And as with any vacation there's some tips to be followed. The most important of which is to never be left alone. "If you are going away from the resort, either go with an organized tour or go with a group of people as opposed to just wondering out on your own." says Brown.
