Almost all the main carriers, Verizon, Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile, offer affordable and even free roaming in Mexico. We recommend you check with your carrier before traveling. If by chance you roam to Mexico and incur huge roaming rates, call your carrier and ask them if they can activate retroactively a better plan and charge you accordingly.

Most places accept cards but it's convenient to have pesos on hand for things like tips, public restrooms, street vendors, etc. We suggest exchanging at your bank before the trip. Depending on your bank, you can also do a currency exchange directly through your banking site to get the Mexican pesos delivered directly to your home.
If you want to change money before leaving the airport there is a currency exchange kiosk right near the baggage claim. However, in the city, you can also use any local atm (for a small fee) and pull out money in pesos. Save the hassle - make sure you let your bank know you are traveling so they don’t freeze your card. Also, you will see the “$“ sign on all prices, but this refers to the Mexican Peso, not the U.S. dollar.
