TROPIC OF CANCER WITH SIMON REEVE - Programme One: Mexico, Cuba and the Bahamas. Author and TV presenter Simon Reeve begins his epic journey around the Tropic of Cancer - the northern border of the tropics region - in Mexico, which has replaced Colombia as the drug trafficking capital of the Americas. Simon travels through the western state of Sinaloa, home to the most violent drug cartel, visits the city of Culiacán (known as 'the decapitation capital'), and visits a shrine popular with drug traffickers and couriers taking packages north to the USA.
This Tropic of Cancer series is Simon's third trip exploring the Tropics - the region of the planet with both the richest natural biodiversity, and the greatest concentration of human suffering. During 2006 and 2008 he travelled around the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn for the acclaimed BBC series of the same name.
