If you’ve decided to have your drive tour or holiday in Mexico and explore the country’s breathtaking natural wonders and rich culture, or just spend a few hours dining and shopping, the first thing you need to be aware of is that your American car insurance won’t come along. Before you start packing your bags, there are a few things you should know about auto insurance coverage in Mexico.

Mexicali is the capital of the Mexican state of Baja California located just across from Calexico in California. It’s close proximity and convenience lends to making Mexicali a very popular tourist destination, particularly for day-trippers from the San Diego area. Even if you are just passing by Mexicali, it would be a shame not to visit one of the most famous U.S./Mexico border towns. If you are planning on going south of the border by car, your U.S. insurance policy won’t be valid. Purchase your auto insurance policy online from a reliable provider in the U.S. and then set off across the border with peace of mind.

If you have never been to Feria Nacional de San Marcos, now is the perfect time to experience the country’s largest fair! Every year, the San Marcos National Fair starts in April and lasts for approximately three (sometimes four) weeks but the exact date varies. This year, Feria starts on April 14 and ends on May 6. If you want to explore Mexico’s rich culture and vibrant art scene and do it by car, don’t forget to buy your Mexican car insurance online before you set off.
