What is REALLY Happening in MEXICO?

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- 03/23/09 -- Today the Mexico Tourism Board and itravel2000 announced an innovative program to address the confusion created by recent media reports about Mexico.

In the past weeks, reports of problems in towns on the U.S. and Mexico board relating to Drug Cartel violence created a perception with consumers that all of Mexico, including favorite sun and beach destinations were all dangerous to travel to even though the destinations like Cancun and the Riviera Maya are over 3000kms away from the affected border cities.

To address the confusion, a project entitled "What is REALLY Happening in MEXICO?" has been launched that features an independent regular traveller, Scott Sheehan, visiting popular destinations in Mexico and interviewing real consumers on their experiences. Interviews, pictures and stories are hosted on a web blog www.whatisreallyhappeninginmexico.com.
