If
you’ve recently opened up your guide books or scoured your
friends’ recommendations on where to travel in Mexico,
chances are there’s a few places you’ve noted down. Maybe it’s the
growing infamy of bohemian-chic
Tulum, the sprawling mezcal fields of colonial Oaxaca
or the desolate surf beaches of Puerto Escondido. All are
noteworthy destinations, and could satisfyingly soak up your
precious time off. But what if you were to hear of another way to
discover Mexico – one which stimulates the senses, immerses you in
lands of insurmountable beauty, takes you far off the beaten track,
and connects you with like-minded explorers as Mexico’s mysteries
reveal themselves day by day?

Picture the following. One morning might find you sleepily
zipping open your tent, shaking off the morning dew and gazing out
as the sun slowly rises over a forgotten lake in the middle of the
Mayan jungle in Chiapas. No one else is in sight; all you can hear
are the cries of howler monkeys and the gentle rustling of trees,
the smell of a burning fire and beans bubbling as the local women
tend to breakfast nearby.

Later that day you’ll hop-scotch over ceiba tree roots as you
climb up sacred pyramids lost in the middle of the jungle,
listening intently as the indigenous Lacandon Mayans weave tales of
tradition and mystery. Or why not take an unexpected journey
through
Baja California‘s narrow peninsula and take the time to commune
with magical creatures of the deep before finding refuge in
candlelit glamping on desert islands in the Sea of Cortez. Mexico
is vast and her bounty is unfathomable.

If you prefer to have your senses spiked and your blood pumping,
follow us as we plunge into one of the most immense caves on Earth
and explore the depths within, spending our evenings between
boutique
eco-hotels and remote mountain cabins in the Sierra Gorda.
Choose the untrodden path and spend your days trekking precipitous
mountain trails of the vast canyon ranges of the Sierra Tarahumara
in northern Mexico, sleeping under the stars and learning from the
nomadic Raramuri tribe who call these mountains home.

Mexico is a land which contains a thousand stories waiting to be
told; hidden gems which could easily take you a lifetime to
unearth. It is also a place which we call home and one of nature’s
finest playgrounds. We’re Atlas Unbound, and we’re about
introducing travellers to our secret lairs, reconnecting to nature,
catalysing fresh perspectives and delving into new realms of
experiences. We’re for those with an ever curious mind and an
explorer’s bravado. Come join our journey.
