Ahh well there we go, I never knew that about flamingos and the salt, thanks for telling us that.
And well done on another brilliant video, these are amazing!
I'm mexican and I feel very glad that you guys like my country and also speak some words in Spanish. Saludos y abrazos
Gracias Karla!
Hello guys. I've just found your channel. I'll subscribe. Glad to know you're in my country. Hoping you visit Guadalajara. Jalisco's capital. Land of tequila and mariachi.
Thank you so much! We're making plans for Jalisco now and hope to visit the capital again :)
Ah, those aren't alligators, they are crocodiles. They probably live off the raccoons, coatis, iguanas and everything else you were watching. Cool trip you guys are taking. My wife and I did Mrida, Progreso, Campeche and Puerto Morelos last summer.
We started watching your videos on our big flatscreen because the quality is sooooo good! You can definitely see the improved videography! You guys deserve ALL the subscribers
Ahhh..we made it to the big screen 🤗 Thanks so much, Kamila!
Now, I'm REALLY feeling the urge to visit Mexico!
Right?! There's so much to see here
Progreso looks so cool. We were in Merida before and we knew about this 'beach' but we really didn't expect it to look like this. Thanks for showing us guys! Luv it. - Trevor
New subscriber my girlfriend are heading down there real soon so we can meet any inside tips you could share we are going to be there a little while
El país más hermoso: México!!!
I love sleeping on top beds. Also, your videos are really nice. Well produced. that dog and raccoons. Cuteness ♥ Especially the dog.
I'm trying to plan a trip to Merida for my family and we don't know a lot about mexico. I've been watching many different vlogs by different youtubers but this is by far the best one. Love your cinematography and the banter between you two. Thanks for the videos!
Happy to hear you found this helpful, Catherine! Merida is a great city with lots of family-friendly things to do in the surrounding areas. Enjoy your trip :)
flamingos ❤️ I can’t wait to see more and more of the Mexico, it’s all your fault ;)
Lots more on the way!!
Well done guys! Real nomadic entrepreneurs. Arrange everything yourself or at least arrange it like you want it. You make us really want to go back to Mexico. So much fun to watch your beautiful and perfect vlogs.
Thank you so much, guys! We hope one day we'll be able to explore South America too :)
Progreso, my beautiful hometown. raccoon city! nice video guys. greetings from Toronto.
Progresso is a dump. I'm not sure why anyone would be promoting Progresso.
philip hitt It is interesting, the mangrove swamp tour was terrific, we also saw storks way up in the trees, lots of wonderful sights, but, the town itself is boring and messy.
Wow! Nice b-roll and slo mo shots! I heard there’s a place near Merida and around a 5 or 6 hour drive from Cancun to this place called “las coloradas”. You might find it interesting it’s got pink water as well but great wider shots are taken in this place... so cool you may wanna check that out
Las Coloradas looks beautiful! We didn't have a chance to travel that far from Merida this time but hopefully we can check it out at some point :)
I’m from merida 💗
Awsome! I am in Merida for couple of days in May. Seems like a perfect one day trip. Thanks for inspiration!
Hope you have a great time in Merida, Marcin! Lots to see and do. Glad we gave you some inspiration :)
It's very, very, very beautiful, it's nice. Oooh!, my like. Thanks.
Those raccoons in the intro were so cool! The tour was definitely worth it! Sometimes it is sometimes it isn't.
It's hit or miss with some tours but luckily this one was worth it in the end!
I want a 10 minute vlog of Wes going down the bunk bed and Fel narrating that
LOL
yes rio lagarto was great and i highly recommend it. But salt flats looks amazing!!!!
I have discover your chanell right now and watched some videos, both of you guys are very nice. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much and welcome to the family :)
Hi !!! Again we have been to Progresso many times not sure when you were there ?? The market area is not very clean.. beaches are nice ... we did not get to see the flamingos ....
We also took that bus ride to Progresso it was a little long to get to Progresso .. not too far from our ranch in Campeche
You two are ridiculous...ly CUTE! Great video and what an amazing surprise finding your way and making an even better tour! 💙
Great vid thanks for sharing we have been living in Progreso for 4 months now and love it Cheers from 2 Canadians living Mexico Yucatan J&D 🍁🍁🐕🐕🙏🙏👩🏻❤👨🏼👩🏻❤👨🏼
I really love watching your videos guys! They make me so happy! ❤️
Thank you so much, Laura!! We're happy to share them and looking forward to exploring Guadalajara soon ;)
Feather and the Wind that’s awesome! Please if you guys need any recommendations for non touristic places to go I’ll be happy to share! I also grew up in a town nearby Gdl so there’s a lot of beautiful pueblos you guys should definitely check out! ☺️
Just discovered your vlog by chance and wanted you to know I really love it. Good travel vloging is something that can't be taught....either you have the personality and enthusiasm for it or you don't, and you guys absolutely do! Keep up the good work and here's hoping your subs grow and grow!
Great videos Feli & Wes, very good quality and very informative. I visited Progreso 35 years ago with my parents and brothers, obviously many things have changed but the natural beauty of Mexico is still awesome. Saludos from CdMx.
PS. Felicia one question, where do your family come from?
Thank you so much! The natural beauty is one of the reasons we keep coming back to Mexico.

Hey guys this is awesome! I was in Progresso I didn't see any of that!
I love mangrove forests, it's just something about them that's so relaxing and beautiful.
Agreed!
Super solid vlogs guys! Just happened to stumble across your channel. I'm looking to relocate to Merida for a month to work as a digital nomad.
You guys are cool, I like the way you get along.....
Everytime I watch your videos I wish my husband and I were adventuring in Mexico!! You do such an amazing job of capturing all the beauty and fun. Always excited to see your video uploads😉😆
Loving these videos guys. Thank you. I also saw flamingos in a Tulum 2 months ago. It was so magical.
We are in Progreso for a week starting today (33 degrees!) all because we saw your video. Thanks.
That's amazing! Hope you have a wonderful week ☀️☀️☀️
1:13 I might not even leave that beach...
Where did you find the private tour? We're going there in the morning from Merida.
Hey Andrew, we booked our tour off of one of the local vendors along the main 'malecon'. It wasn't intentionally a private tour but we lucked out since no other travellers were there that day. Enjoy!
@@FeatherandtheWind Thanks guys! It was super easy to find. Did the same tour and it was private. Really great time that we wouldn't have done without having seen your video so thank you. The people there are so great!
FYI. The taxis hang out in the main square. Some ruins should have also been included in the tour. I paid $350 for transportation then it costs $90 to go into the nature reserve and $50 to visit the ruins. I also saw very few flamingos.
Good to know that you can still touch the salt, because I have seen that the pink lakes further to the east are private property.
One peso converts to five cents in American money so the 400 pesos is twenty bucks. Pretty cheap if you convert it. And get all the info and interacting with a local person who knows the history. They have hundreds of varieties of corn in Mexico adn they are not genetically modified althought they have been trying to sneak their seeds into their crops. They have to monitor all the time. If more than one ear grows out from the stalk in one place it is a sign it is a genetically modified plant. One area of Mexico they have numerous varieties all different for different uses, some cook better than others etc. I am dying for a ear of corn that is not gentically modified. I read that all the yellow varieities in the groceries are gmo but that the white corn is not. Maybe it as changed now.
How is the weather I Progresso in November?Also were can you find the tour persons?
Lovely. You two are delightful :] . Viva Mexico!
Omg so funny he said is the camera off...lol. Great video guys.
thats where im from!! i would have loved to meet you guys
Hopefully next time :) We'll always be back in Mexico!
Don't go here during the festival it is too crowded it's crazy this is a good time that they went
Fantastic video!! I would love to book the same tour - do you remember what the tour is called ? I need to see those raccoons and flamingos !! Thanks so much for sharing
Hey Sarah, we wrote more about the day on our blog and booked the tour from a booth right at the boardwalk in Progreso. There are lots of tour operators all over town but ours was run by "Tio Pedro's Adven tours": www.featherandthewind.com/blog/day-trips-merida-progreso-yucatan-mexico
Feather and the Wind thanks !! Bookmarking the blog now :)
What's the name of the tour you guys took?

STAY IN MEXICO WITH THE ROCHES
we love Yucatan - our home
I have wanted to move to Merida for a couple years now. I'm from Houston but have lived in NYC for 18 years. Been to all parts of Mexico but fell in love w/ the Yucatan. I've been looking at beach houses in Progresso & surrounding areas. Very affordable! I appreciate your video. You went exactly where I would have. I love raccoons!
It's kind of refreshing to see people who are so easily amused.
