The 2008 ARCO IRIS gay group tour to VERACRUZ is FEBRUARY 2 to 7 for the VERACRUZ MARDI GRAS CARNIVAL CELEBRATION.
6 days and 5 nights of non-stop activities in an exciting city that only becomes more festive during the annual MARDI GRAS CARNIVAL. For five straight days, the city virtually shuts down as hundreds of thousands of visitors pour in to celebrate with gusto the coming of Lent. There are two big, colorful parades a day -- and the nighttime is filled with the sound of music and merriment all around. |

| For the group tour, the sightseeing will include the Museo de la Cuidad ( the Museum of the City ), the state-of-the-art Veracruz Aquarium, the San Juan Fort ( a huge 17th Century structure built as a defense against pirate attacks ), a Gay Beach Party on a golden stretch of sand, and attendance at Mardi Gras Carnival parades and parties. | ||
