Xplor

If you are heading to Cancun Mexico and looking for a great value full day of fun then Xplor is the place to be. The park is the ultimate adventure park in Cancun. The Bus came to pick us up from the hotel at 7:20am. Then they take you to their transport centre where you get on the bus going to your final destination as the Xcaret group have over 4 different parks to expereince. It is all very organised and there are plenty of people around to ask if you need help. You will be given a wristband here and this will advise you of what bus to get on. 

From here it is about an hour ride down to the park. We arrived at 9:30am. 
Upon arrival they give you a helmet that you have to wear all day. They also sell you the unlimited photo package. You scan your wristband at certain points and can take as many pictures as you want. The package is $59 usd per person. This is one of the parks i would recommend to have it for, As you can rarely take your camera with you on a lot of the activities. You can take your Go Pro on the Zip Line but a lot of the other activities are underground so your Go Pro will be no good. There are also lockers that you have to use for the day.


You will get wet on just about any activitiy here at the park so make sure you have your bathers on all day. Do the ziplining first as they get the longest lines - it takes about 2 hours to do both of the routes. From there we did the Amphibious ATV bikes there are 2 tracks to do and you can drive the bikes around the park area through caves and water. Buffet lunch is included in our ticket. The food was really nice with a huge selection or local Mexican food and international cruisine also soft drinks are included There is also underground rafting which is really fun and offers a shorter route and a longer more experienced route. There is also a river swim which you need a lifejacket for. It is all underground. 

The shuttles back to Cancun depart at 5pm. The park is pretty big and it is very easy to get lost. Overall its a great day out and value for money with just about everything included.
