Prebook Xcaret near Playa del Carmen for day or night entry, plus cultural Espectacular show. Plus upgrades can include lunch and snorkeling.
“Second time visiting and Xcaret never fails to impress. It was a great all day excursion that mixes fun with cultural exposure. My 8yr old loves it.”
Xcaret Park day trip from Cancun with included water zones and culture, plus a must-see night show and easy round-trip transport.
“Fantastic trip, but costly. Other review stated it's like the Disneyland of Mexico for prices. They are right. Lots of fun and enjoyment. Tour pickup was 20 minutes late, with unknown bus transfer which cost time. Very well organized on exit back to Cancun”
Sail on the Jolly Roger pirate ship in Cancun for dinner, unlimited drinks, a family-friendly show, dancing on deck, and fireworks.
“Everything was fantastic!!! The food is good, even a bit above average, which was a nice surprise, I was expecting something just ok. The show was FUN! I wasn't expecting them to REALLY jump off ship! And the dancing at the end was fun!”
See Cirque du Soleil JOYÀ at Vidanta Riviera Maya: an intimate 80-minute show plus optional Champagne and dinner packages from Cancún.
“It was an amazing show. Must do when visiting Cancun!”
Jolly Roger Pirate Show Cancun is a 3.5-hour sunset dinner cruise with open bar, kids’ games, and a live pirate battle show plus transportation.
“Don’t confuse Captain Cook pirate ship with Jolly Roger dinner cruise. Jolly Roger is about 6km north of Cancun’s main boulevard. We made this mistake and had to hustle with a taxi to make the cruise time. This was a great dinner cruise. TRead more”
MYST Euphoria in Cancun is a late-night, music-hits show with top live performers, dancers, and serious lighting. Ticket includes entry.
“Karla with wonderful k and very attentive !! We had an amazing time!!! The atmosphere is very fun for all tastesAuto-translated”
Cruise Cancun at dusk on a Spanish galleon for a family-friendly pirate show, included dinner, and a deluxe open bar.
“The show and band was great. The food was better then expected. Its a little hot at first but when the sun started to go down it was better. Well worth the money for dinner and a show.”
Night of Kukulcán plus cenote swim and Valladolid stops from Cancun. Includes buffet lunch and tequila tasting, with Chichén Itzá at night.
“La excursión no comenzó correctamente: llamada avisando de retraso (10 minutos), segunda llamada pidiéndome a mi que les pasase con alguien del staff del hotel porque el bus no podía pasar hasta la recepción donde yo esperaba... en definitiva, me tienen que llevar en un vehículo del hotel hasta la caseta de seguridad a la entrada. Cuando le pregunto al guía porqué no podía pasar, él me muestra la orden de recogida y claramente decía "recogida en oficina de seguridad". No sé quien redactó esa orden, pero la cagó. El vehículo era una van algo vieja, con la amortiguación bastante afectada, yo que tengo una vértebra aplastada, lo noté mucho...…”
Round-trip transport to Xcaret Park plus the Night Show. Snorkeling gear included, with a long day schedule from Cancun.
“Extremely Disappointing and Unprofessional Service I booked an excursion to Xcaret through this company via Viator, and it turned out to be one of the worst travel service experiences I have ever had. • Pickup Issues: The driver arrived over one hour late for the morning pickup, immediately cutting into our day and causing unnecessary stress. • No Driver Contact Information: We were never given any direct contact information for our driver, making it impossible to coordinate when delays occurred. • Return Trip Failure: At the end of the day, we were stranded despite being on time and exactly where we were told to meet. The company ignored all of…”
Catamaran to Isla Mujeres for MUSA reef snorkeling, Playa Norte swim, Zaza Beach Club lunch and open bar, plus Coco Bongo show.
“We were disappointed by the lack of communication, having booked this trip a couple of months prior. We did not receive information for a meeting spot or time until late the night before (after a number of messages that were not responded to) and only after we had agreed to spend a further $45 per person on Coco Bongo. When we got to the dock they were not aware of our booking, luckily they sorted it out and we had an enjoyable day. We were not able to do the Coco Bongo trip on the same day as the Catamaran as advertised and when we got to the ticket office…”
See Chichén Itzá’s Noche de Kukulkan at night, swim at Cenote Hubikú, and tour Valladolid with lunch and transfers for $169.
“We wanted to see Chicen Itza night show but the only option was to go to other places first and it was advertised as a full day. We paid over £200 for two of us. We visited the cenote, it was pretty but we’ve been to other cenotes, the “all you can eat buffet” was anything but. Not self service and comment if you asked for more. Not allowed your own drinks so that you buy their overpriced ones.”
Dinner and an open bar on a pirate ship in Cancun, with games, dancing, and the Original Pirate Assault Show for about 4 hours.
“Fun and entertaining! The food and drinks were great! I would get the ship with Captain Sparrow. It was a great time.”
Chichen Itza Kukulcan Nights at night plus Cenote Hubiku swimming, Don Tadeo tequila stop, and Valladolid colonial sights.
Dragaret in Cancun is an adult-only drag cabaret with 3 hours of live music, 12 artists on stage, and an after party until 4am.
“I paid for this months before I went to Cancun and when I got there on a Saturday in February the locals said there hasn’t been this show for 4-6 months!! And had to pay to go somewhere else!! Viatour I want my refund and take this activity down!!!”
Chichén Itzá by Night from Cancun: Hubikú cenote swim, Valladolid break, tequila tasting, and a multimedia ruins light show.
“The trip is too long and ended almost by 3am, which sucked. They picked up people all over including in Tulum, making it longer than expected and adding about 4 extra hours to what was expected. The buffet is not good and you need to Read more”
