Top Riviera Maya & the Yucatan Attractions & Museums

"The ruins are amazing and well worth going to see! We’d done Chichen Itza 2 days prior, and these were definitely different enough that we’re glad we did both! Unlike Chichen Itza, where you really need a guide to get the full understanding, here there are plenty of signs in both Spanish and English explaining what you’re looking at so you can save that expense, especially if you’re coming here second, like we did. The “skip the line” ticket worked as-advertised, but as others have noted, it’s tough to find the desk to redeem your voucher for the actual ticket - we easily lost over an hour trying to track it down, so here’s the scoop so you don’t wander in the wilderness as we did! The voucher redemption desk is at the first cash register inside the candy shop within the outdoor shopping area prior to the actual entry to the ruins. Whether you come by rental car (we did) or by taxi or bus, you’ll get dropped off about a half-mile from the ruins. It’s called Mexican Sweetness. Head up the road and you’ll come to the shopping area - look for a yellow candy store in the middle of it all - that’s where you redeem your voucher for the actual admission tickets. From there on, it’s smooth sailing!"

"Absolutely a wonderful experience. The best part for us was the float trip, and the show from 7-9pm. Luckily, we'd been to Chichen Itza the prior day, so we were familiar with some key aspects of the mayan culture, which were enacted in this 7-9pm show at the park. So we suggest you do Chichen Itza before going to Xcaret Park."

"Frank, Rodrigo, and our bus driver Pablo did a great job on the tour. We were safe and learned lots about Mayan culture. Would definitely book with them again."

"This experience was amazing and Marco was absolutely incredible. He has a real passion for what he does and he is so educated on the Mayan culture that it made the excursion all the more enjoyable. I have so much respect for Marco and the Mayan culture after this experience. Make sure to bring cash and be prepared for a long but fun day!"

"Nice and friendly peoples. This is natural park for real. food and drink is free but they reserved very nice."

"All was absolutely perfect! Luis and Miguel were so kind and funny. I learned so many things about the Maya’s culture."

"Very well paid service. We didn't take any lines and everything worked out! Chichen Itza is a worderfull place to visit. A lot of history and beauty."

"Great show . All the acts was spot on . The Micheal Jackson show was good . All the other one that I saw so good . The drinks and music was so good . Cancun coco bongo was lit baby"

"The best your guide ever RUTH 69 ! Ruth was amazing we had such a blast in Tullum seeing the ruins , learning about the Mayan cultural. Getting a fresh coconut to drink around the ruins . Swimming in the cenote and the Lunch was amazing ! So delicious authentic meal ."

"Wonderful experience !!! Loved the natural habitat, we even saw a puma and a jaguar at the restaurant we ate !!! 😃"

"This was one of the best excursion I have taken. Henry was amazing and so were the rest of the tour operators."

"The show is fantastic and worth the price. It is confusing going in. Person outside got us to upgrade to VIP. Person sat us further back anyway, had to pull out our paperwork again to show him we upgraded. Seems like everyone was mixed up anyway. Not sure we really needed to upgrade"

"You never can go wrong with Mr. Sanchos. I always have a good time , excellent service and very clean."

"My 3yo daughter and I had a great time at the water park. The cabana was ideal for us, and so reasonably priced. She loved the water park area, and the buffet was great. As well, the shuttle service from the port was great. Will definitely return when we revisit."

"It was rainy but the park was open. It was a fun filled day with ziplining, rafting, restaurant and gift stores."

"I don’t know if I would call it a museum; it’s more of an art gallery. Anyway, we had an awesome time. There’s stickers on the floor to guide you where to get the right pictures. The guide was very helpful by taking pictures for us. Overall it was a great experience."

"We loved Hugo as our guide. This was so fun and unlike anything you will ever do again! Worth every penny!"

"Awesome place! Had a great time, excellent staff, would recommend to anyone, will be coming back next time I'm in cozumel."

"Such an incredible excursion! We were on the Royal Caribbean Adventure of the Seas, and this excursion is offered on Carnival but not on Royal. So we went through Viator, and we were very pleased! The included snorkeling was incredible, and the all you can eat and drink (only during lunch) was very good! The only downside was that lunch didn't start until 1 pm when the certificate said 12:00 pm. When you are one hour ahead normally, that meant having lunch at 2 pm EST when we normally eat at 12 pm EST. The sea lion show was so much fun, but we had to do the 1 pm sea lion show because the 12 pm time was for a private tour. That caused us to eat lunch at 1:30 pm when we thought we were eating at 12 pm. We are definitely booking this tour again!!"

"Our tour guide Amy was amazing! The activities were fun and exciting. I would go again and again! I even liked the food!"

"Continues to be a great day in Cozumel. There were only 8 of us there but the entire staff was just wonderfully upbeat. The menu has hot and cold snacks… but they are really substantial like coconut shrimp and ceviche. Drinks were cold and plenty. We even got a one to drink on walk back to cruise ship. No need for expensive cab ride ."
