" That would make a refreshing change! Against advice of tourist offices, my husband and I hired 4x4s in both the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico and Peru (south), so that we could drive around the areas and have a true taste of the cultures, rather than going for the ''safer'' option of a package/organised tour. We had a wonderful time in both places. We did the same on our ""round-the-world"" trip, which was exhausting but definitely worth it. We now live in Hong Kong, but have both travelled extensively. Here, I take visitors to the New Territories, outlying islands - basically anywhere away from the skyscrapers in Central and the usual tourist trail. Hong Kong is about 80% countryside, but you wouldn''t know it from all the postcards and tourist information available outside of here. "
