You will need to book your own flight into Mexico. This is
not included as part of your Frida pilgrimage because we have found
from experience that participants come from many different places,
and, some wish to extend their stay . Plan to arrive at the Airport between 2 and 4 PM where you will be picked
up and taken directly to the Hotel. From this point on ALL expenses
are included.
|
Upon arrival at Leon's International Airport, you will
be picked up by our staff and transported directly to the hotel.
After a short break to refresh yourself, we all gather for a group
Dinner and Introductions on our opening evening, included in your
tuition.
From this point on, all lodging, meals, transportation,
tips, entry fees, & guides are included in your tuition fee.
You only need to bring additional money for any desired shopping
or alcoholic beverages. |

and the perception that Western Europe remains troubling,
travelers are flocking
to countries like Mexico."
