Sounds like a very cool experience. Is it safe? My naive impression is that northern Mexico and perhaps parts of Central America could be dicey, but I also suppose in Mexico at least the cartels are rational enough to generally avoid targeting foreigners.
- grecy 3y agoMany thousands of people do it every year, and just a few experience pick pocketing or a vehicle smash and grab. If you're smart, don't drive at night and don't go looking for trouble, there's no reason to think you'll have problems. After driving the Pan-Am I drove right around Africa through 35 countries. Never had a single "bad" moment, never heard a single gunshot. I was in LA a couple of months ago, heard gunshots.
