We have updated the brochure for the Mexico 2025 trip.
The most notable update is that we have brought down the price and will cover most internal costs into the total price of $975 to make the trip simpler for our members.
Now the only external costs are the hotel, flight and food, with admission tickets and internal travel covered.
Please if you are interested in the trip, download our updated brochure at the link at the end of this email.
