- Welcome to Xalapa, Veracruz! Xalapa is the capital of the state of Veracruz here in Mexico. If you are looking for things to do, what to do, que hacer in Xalapa we highlight some of those in this Mexico Travel Vlog.
Xalapa really surprised us, in such a good way especially with all of its green spaces and coffee shops! If you are traveling through Mexico and are stopping in Veracruz we definitely recommended taking time to check out Xalapa. And make sure you don’t miss Xalapa’s Museo de Antropologia, or the Museum of Anthropology here in Xalapa.

Agreed! Very enjoyable and entertaining. Great writing, delivery, editing, all of it.
Xalapa looks like a beautiful city.
We are so comfy here. We love it
Yes it is ! Xalapa city of the flower.
I have heard such good things about Xalapa. Now I add it to my list.
We loved it! Someday we will be back
I lived in Xalapa for several years and it's a wonderful city! I'm glad you guys thought so too and created such a great, informative video about it! The only thing you forgot to mention is that somehow everything is always uphill in Xalapa hahaha
I was born near Xalapa! Veracruz holds some of my favorite memories I can't wait to visit ❤ thank you for this video !
Glad you enjoyed it! Veracruz is seriously our favorite..❤️ what an honor it must be to be from this state!
Gracias por hacer el video en inglés, los Xalapeños que tenemos hijos nacidos en Estados Unidos !!!!
So glad to see you back in Mexico! And your editing skills are much improved. Thanks for posting prices ! I can't wait to go to xalapa!
Thanks! Saludos
and btw please keep in mind prices are listed according to the current exchange rate, which are already so different from one year ago!
En Mexico tenemos muchas cosas especialmente en Veracruz. Tenemos desde la hermosa a cultura y deliciosa comida, hasta que no tenemos demasiados turistas y es hermoso. Hay un montón de señas traducidas al inglés en Mexico, aquí en Xalapa el clima normalmente es como si fuera la primavera es hermoso. Hay tres parques en Xalapa que se llaman los lagos, también se puede encontrar la hermosa catedral en el centro de Xalapa. Aunque el centro de toda la ciudad es el cerro de Macuiltepec una montaña la cual representa a la ciudad. La universidad veracruzana es una universidad la cual es dueña de de muchísimas cosas aquí en Xalapa. Honestamente los precios son increíbles y la ciudad es una verdadera hermosura 🫶
I’m in Xalapa now visiting my son who plays pro basketball for the Halcones.
The people are so nice here. The weather is great. There are nice malls and restaurants.
Downside is the hills will kill you 😂😂😂.
I will be back soon. I wish they had a direct flight rather than going into Veracruz.
oh cool! and yea, those hills were always a great workout lol
Thanks so much for showing us Xalapa -- it's a real gem of a city, with the perfect eternal spring-like climate.
Yes the climate it’s perfect although recently locals are concerned as temperatures have been on the rise the past couple of years.
The best season of the year to be here is probably winter or fall because you can enjoy cold and warm and even hot.
You two are adorable! I am an American that lived in Xalapa for 8 years. I love that city. The whole area around xalapa too. All the small towns and hidden places that only the locals know. In the cool mountains and valleys. One of my fave restaurants is a fish taco place way up on the side of a mountain. They funnel water from the mountain stream into tanks where they grow trout in clear, clean always moving water. Your fish is the freshest fish you will ever eat. A few bottles of indio and it was heaven on earth. Tables right next to the stream in the woods on the mountainside. I miss it so much. I had to leave a couple years ago. Thank you for this vid. Very well done. Subbed on the first vid.
Once again you two are my guide, on my way from Veracruz City to Xalapa for a Month. I use your travel videos to map my way. Cheers...
It’s an honor to be your guides! ☺️ happy travels!
On my travels in Veracruz my self in Papantla WOW what a great friendly clean town, also took in El Tajin the energy there is incredible
I have several youtubers i watch who travel and/ or live in Mexico. I really appreciate your perspective/ insight on Mexico.❤
Enjoyed Xalapa very much and the academic, art atmosphere was great. I do encourage, and it’s my opinion, to not air bnb only because it’s turned neighborhoods upside down. I do hotel rooms, it could be about the same or cheaper if you plan well and sometimes I’m okay with paying extra. It’s the principle.
True, AirBnB has really skewed rent rates for locals
This is the best video on Xalapa I've seen. Thank you:)
Glad you liked it! 🤗
Muchas gracias por hacer tan bello review de mi ciudad
holaa me alegra mucho que les agrade este video a los xalapeños 🤗❤️
Great you made it to Xalapa, I just returned from a 9 city 2 month tour of central Mexico. I started with a flight from TJ to Zacatecas. I will be starting the second half of my tour the end of November. I will be flying from TJ to Veracruz, Xalapa has been on my list from the start. I have saved this post to help me navigate the city. Cheers to you two, happy to see your back in Mexico....
Xalapa is wonderful! Let us know when you come so we can provide some good tips. We highly recommend our apartment it’s in the middle of everything!
one of the best cups of coffee I have ever had was in my hotel room in Xalapa. No veo la hora para regresar.
Coffee, 💃 and the green spaces make Xalapa so special.
Living the life 👍🏽

Great video and nice to see Xalapa get highlighted! It is a great city and surrounding areas.
Orizaba is my favorite city.
It really is! We love Orizaba too 🥰
Great video, Vera Cruz as a whole seems to be overlooked.
Definitely is! Maybe it’s best that way lol
Thanks to CZcams analytics your delightful channel popped up when I searched for Veracruz 👏🏻👏🏻 You should be very proud of the videos you post. You provide some outstanding ideas of places to visit and to eat while balancing it with the feeling that you are our friends showing us all the fun they are experiencing. Well done!👍🏻👏🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
Finally a proper blog about Xalapa !
Thank you guys for visiting my beautiful city. Skipped by most but once you visit it, you’ll love it. Except for the traffic lol.
It’s a good thing we don’t drive! Jeje saludos nos encanta Xalapa una de las ciudades más hermosas de Mexico.
Hola! Gran video! Xalapa está magnifico! The coffee culture there and food looks very appetizing! The museum is definitely the best to learn and see the Olmec civilization! Glad you’re enjoying to the fullest! I think the state of Veracruz is beautiful! underrated but not for long! Thank you for sharing and sigan de salseros! Se bañan! 🥵
gracias gracias! 🤗 we really loved Xalapa.. y claro que sí 🧼🫡
You guys are so talented. You honestly make most other well known YTers vids look weak :)
Wow, thank you! We needed that we have been off the grid for a month or so but getting ready to revamp it all up.
Glad you showcased Xalapa! That's one of the cities I am interested in visiting. Hope you do another video of the area.
We will be doing a video in Coatepec and Puerto de Veracruz which is pretty close.
The food looks amazing! I would love to visit the museum one day.
The museum gave us goosebumps it’s so beautiful!
This is my hometown, thank you so much for sharing with the world 😊 I'm happy to know that you enjoyed your trip!! Come back soon ^^
We love your hometown! I’m so glad you saw this video 😊
I am from TX but been in coatepec like suburb of Xslapa.
We were just there yesterday. It’s really nice
Watching this for a second time. OMG marquesitas and fish tacos, i'm sold. -Marc
Awesome apartment. Love it !!!
We were sooo comfy there!
Este canal esta chingon ! buenos videos
gracias saludos!
I cant wait to go back ❤Xalapa
same here!
We traveled the state of Veracruz last year and especially fell in love with Xalapa! Gracias for highlighting this amazing city :) Also my mouth is watering after seeing all that delicious Veracruzano food...
Glad you enjoyed it! And glad you’ve been to Xalapa 😁 we loved it here! Did you visit any of the nearby towns?
@@EatBailaTravel Spent a few days in Xico, such a fun place with the dancing clowns!
That restaurant with the mural backdrop is beautiful! Would love to dance there. Also that museum seems like a great place to visit.
that museum was just one of the coolest we've been to ever! Even better than the Louvre in Paris in my opinion, but I enjoy archeology more than paintings so I'm biased
Excellent video! My Spanish tutor, who is from Veracruz, recommended for me to visit Xalapa. I will definitely check it out!
So far we love it and already a little bummed about leaving soon
Damn. Loooks gorgeous!
Honestly, I like this presentation though.
Y’all are getting better at this 👀
Thanks Yarles!! 🙏🏽😁
Amazing video, really well done! I'm moving to Xalapa in a couple months this got me super excited.
ahh how exciting!! we would totally live there. loved it
Saludos chicos les deseo un excelente día y como siempre muy buen video cuidense mucho abrazo para ustedes desde CDMX 💖💖💞💞🙏🙏🙏

Back in Mexico! Back in action!
Saludos
O.M.G, STOP!! All the great food and coffee, aye!! ❤ lol I remember you highly recommending me this place to possibly move to with my kids - I'm totally convinced! Hope you guys rethink abt moving to Mexico City! Universities here in Veracruze Jen!? Lol I hope to run into you guys one day when my family and I make it down there, hopefully sooner than later! God bless, stay safe and enjoy! ❤ Another great video btw! I pray you guys will somehow stay connected with us via CZcams as you both settle into Mexico!?
We recommended Orizaba! That’s a great place to live with kids and we recently went and it’s gotten even better!! Hopefully there’s an opportunity to come back here to Xalapa
Omg you guys read my massage yayyy 😊
Yea for sure!! Saludos
This video is very well done! I like the style of it. You've also convinced me to visit (I live next door in Hidalgo).
Thank you, we’re glad you enjoyed! Stay tuned for more
Omg that café de horchata looks KILLER
And the empanadas de camarón are calling my naaame
The empanadas de camarón are the best thing we have eaten in Xalapa! We might just go get some today lol
Saludos desde los Estados Unidos . Bonito video . Gracias
Saludos desde mexico 🇲🇽🤗
Great to see you both again. All that beautiful food is making me hungry😅. The love locks are supposed to symbolise love & eternity & a lot of the time put on by couples but also people who have lost loved ones in death also leave locks to symbolise the same.❤🔐
Hey Kesia! the love locks seem like quite the trend all over the world, I was just teasing 😁 I'd heard of the symbolism for couples but not about lost loved ones. Very sweet. Thanks!
You said clown show and I chuckled, then I realized it actually was a clown show. 😆
Hahahaha we weren’t lying 🤡
I love xalapa
Saludos! Xalapa is awesome
Been there, done that. In 2000. I always thought Xalapa was a hidden gem.
'Jarochos' son los del puerto de Veracruz. 😊
I am headed to Mexico next month, and would love to have a drink with you too.
Nice! You know what’s good then 😉 and what part of Mexico are you heading to? It’d be cool to make that happen!
@@EatBailaTravel CDMX - Querétaro - Guad. - Durango is the plan.
Hola. Lo mejor café que he probado en mi vida era de Puebla. No puedo esperar regresar a Puebla para comprar más. Voy a llenar mi maleta. La comida de Flor Catorce se ve muy, pero muy rica.
Te acuerdas de que marca era el café que probaste en Puebla? Creo que Puebla también cultiva café pero qué tal si y el café que probaste esta veracruzano? 😯😁
@@EatBailaTravel Santo cachucha. Olvidé responder. El café no tenía marca. Lo compré en San Martin, Puebla en una cafetería. No sé como se llama el lugar tampoco. Próxima vez que estoy en México lo busco para decirte la ubicacion.
Great video! Barranco in Lima has the locks too - in Parque de Amor but no idea what it is but it about love...
Will be in Queretaro next week so binging those videos! Looking forward to my first Mexican trip.
Oh nice what else will you be visiting in Mexico next week? San Miguel de Allende is like 45 min away and worth checking out!
czcams.com/video/43YFx9D5KmM/video.html
Peña de Bernal is also super close and worth checking out!
czcams.com/video/4HGtXQvMLFo/video.html
I just returned from a 2 Month tour of central Mexico, at the end of my trip I traveled from Queretaro to Barnal and back. Make sure you visit El Cerreto pyramid in the Eastern part of the city.
@@EatBailaTravel Thanks very much Jenny and Kevin! 💚♥
@@FidalgoSwing Thanks for the suggestion, mate! 😊

Hola
Hola saludos desde Cicero IL❤
Que lugar tan más bonito muestra su video.
Xalapa is a amazing, you should visit Jefe de manzana cenaduria . It’s a very unique dinner with very creative design
oh thanks for the rec! Adding a pin on our map for next time :D
Vayan a Orizaba y verán lo mejor de todo mexico
Nos encanta Orizaba 😍 tenemos familia ahí y vivimos casi un mes con ellos. Hace dos años. Tenemos videos!
Great video! Plan on going there ASAP!! Keep it up guys! Hopefully we can hook up sometime.
Good video. Ive done about 10 of these on Xalapa but none recent.
My gf and her family are from there. I really like the Xalapa area but she does not (for other reasons) she likes the food culture and scenery there but not living there.
nice, I'll have to check them out! and I totally get what you mean. Sometimes we jusut need to get away from where we grew up for personal reasons
What's the humidity like in Veracruz? Did a mission trip to Victoria, Tamps. once. And humidity was very manageable.
Xalapa humidity is manageable but the closer you get to the beach the hotter it gets. Veracruz puerto is SUPER HUMID.
Les recomiendo el parque botanico de Xalapa chicos!!
tenemos muchas ganas de ir, se ve hermoso, gracias! 😁👍
Hell yeah Kev I love Beaches 👩 too lmao 😂
Haha 😂 😜
You feeling your age? I probably have 30 years on you two. Great video. -Marc
we're around 30 and just realizing we're not 20 anymore ! saludos, Marc!
I heard a Volcano between CDMX to Puebla is very active in this year, erupted multiple times in recent months, did you guys spot one of those eruptions? is it the same Volcano you see?
that's a different volcano than the one we saw in this video, but we did hear about it! We're actually thinking about heading to Puebla soon to check it out
You guys should travel to the PHILIPPINES!!! 🇵🇭
Huge dream of ours! One day day we’ll make it out there
I've traveled throughout Mexico for several years. After visiting a couple towns/cities. It's almost all the same thing! Food, food, park, people. No variations?
But the food isn’t the same everywhere. The parks aren’t the same. Also there are waterfalls, cenotes, canyons, wineries, coffee farms, pyramids… maybe you haven’t found those places yet.
Do you feel like food, activities, night life, etc seems comparable to puerto escondido
Not really, Puerto Escondido has become more touristy but vibes are great in both places but significantly different due to one is a beach town and the other is a college town. Both offer great food, activities but the night life and weather are very different.
!!!!
🤗 thanks for watching
Guerrero also known for their coffee and imho has the richest and most complex coffee
We don’t really remember Guerrero for their coffee so we can’t agree but the mezcal in Guerrero was 🔥🔥🔥
Delicious!
Que bailen mas 🤭
SI! nos hace mucha falta
That is a beautiful area with so much to do, see, and eat! Xalapa = jalapenos!
It really is! 🌶️🥰
De xalapa son los Chiles jalapeños ahi se fundo la company de Chiles jalapeños y El que es originario o que vive en Xalapa se le llama Xalapeño.❤
Wow eso si no sabíamos! Gracias saludos
Hey, I currently live in California I’m a hairdresser and I’m thinking about moving to Jalapa Veracruz would it be a place you would recommend to live
We really enjoyed it, we recommend going to check it out for a month or so.
What's the best way to get here from Houston?
Houston flight to CDMX and then a bus to Xalapa
there's a flight from Houston to the port of veracruz, then it's a short bus ride from veracruz to the xalapa, an hour and 20 minutes. Buses leave from the main station every 20 minutes or so. There is even a bus from the veracruz airport to Xalapa. The bus line is ADO
Culture
Xalapa’s culture is so beautiful
If you're a tourist, it's okay for like 2-3 days, but then it gets pretty lame pretty quickly as there's nothing exciting left to discover about this town and it feels very provincial despite its number of inhabitants. I've been here for several weeks to visit my gf who's doing a semester abroad. To be honest, I'm bored to death, the climate is a disaster and the food is giving me constant diarrhea. The people are very friendly and helpful but nevertheless there's absolutely no reason to spend a lot of time in Xalapa if you have the opportunity to travel to other places in Mexico instead.
We were there for a couple of weeks and never felt bored. We did so much like workout, dance, go to comedy clubs, and really had a blast.
I can't say I like the salsa here. Might be your tast, but I want fresh salsa here oil not something I want in my salsa.
The oil doesn’t work well with everything but we like it on eggs, soups, and pambazos.
Pialli notoca Xoxoctic Xochitl 🦜 love your video it’s amazing.
muchas gracias 🙏❣ reconozco que me escribiste en Nahuatl pero no sé lo que dice, aparte de "xochitl" 🌸
Oh mi reina thats ok "Xoxoctic Xochitl" es mi nombre en Nuhuatl "Flor azul y verde" xoxo@@EatBailaTravel
