The park was fun and absolutely beautiful. They really kept the natural look making you feel as if you were in the jungle. It was extremely clean and well maintained. There were plenty of activities for an active family. The show is a must see! Make plans to go to the 7 pm nightly show. You don’t want to miss it. …

This entire park is great, but our favorite activity was the Sea Trek Rayas. You get to pet AND feed the sting rays which I was not expecting. The photographer also got amazing pictures of us. Lorenzo, Alejandro (diver) and Leo (diver) were the employees we got to work with and they were all insanely professional, funny and friendly. We did the last tour of the day and were the only people who reserved it, so we had a VIP experience, as Lorenzo put it! Thank you so much to all of you! For people considering reserving, you do need to equalize your ears a bit and inside the helmet is pretty loud due to air being pumped in, but otherwise this is a really comfortable and easy experience. Definitely worth the extra cost! …

This park was BEAUTIFUL! We bought Xcaret Plus tickets & all that meant was that we would have access to a beautiful underground/cave river & included access to the lockers as well as 1 buffet sit. We booked this trip at our hotel through one of the agents working with Expedia. He didn’t let us know it would be an ALL day trip (also one fault for not asking while we were booking). The whole bus ride there we were presented which a big range of activities for us to reserve when we got to the park. However we were never told none of them were included & it would all be an extra cost per activity so I didn’t like the way they did that. We ended up deciding to only do 1 activity which was the Sea Trek & the 2 people photo package which was the greatest idea ever made. The park is HUGE. There’s different color lines on the paths to make it easier to find different places to get to. We walked around the park from about 9:45-1:30 then headed to the lockers to change into our swimsuits & competed the Sea Trek. I got to feed sting rays & touch them which was a cool experience. We then floated the underground river & I have no clue how to swim but still was brave enough to do it. Best experience ever! The night shows were nice but very long. By the time you get to them you’re so worn out that you’re just ready to go home. We walked almost all of the park so I wouldn’t recommend buying too many activities or you won’t enjoy the park. The photo scanning package was a bracelet that you scan & there’s camera spots around the park that take your picture automatically. We took about 120 pictures & still only paid $60 So definitely a good deal to not have to worry about your phone.…

We spent 12 hours at the park and experienced it all! We got the full day pass and did snorkeling, swimming in the underground rivers, seeing all the sea life and more. There are so many things to do with just the park ticket. We did purchase the photo package which was so worth it! We got over 40 photos. We also added on the SeaTrek option which was something I had never seen before. Lastly we went to the 2 hour cultural show at night and has dinner. It was amazing from start to finish. The food was great and they even hooked us up with a honeymoon dessert!…

Yucatan peninsula has much more to offer for real, than this man made money oriented artificial attraction. I was hesitating if to go there at all, but having nothing else to do in PDC, decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it was an expensive mistake and I got exactly what I've anticipated. It's an artificial "instant Mexico" theme park, made for those lazy tourists who made the extra effort of leaving their all inclusive resort to say they experienced "real Mexico" - some caves, some Maya dances and shows, some food, some animals - all packed in a steep US$ 100 pp plus many extra bucks during your Mexico "explorations". The Underground river is certainly the best attraction, but it's solar years away from the unique Rio Secreto across the road (read that review). Turtles in sea you can see in their original natural habitat at Akumal bay some 30 min drive away (see that review). Other animals like parrots, dolphins, etc...you've probably seen in many such places worldwide. Original Mayan temples, towns and villages you can see just a couple of hours drive away, along with authentic Churches, market places and food there (Valladolid, Izamal, Merida, Chichen Itza,...). I think you got my point, so I'd like to finish with Covid issues - the only two places on our entire Yucatan 2 weeks tour we didn't feel safe were Chichen Itza and Xcaret. Both places were packed with people, without social distancing and with many not wearing a mask.…
