Make a plan before this trip!

Great park! I have nothing bad to say about Xcaret. It is absolutely stunning and truly I have not see anything like it. Our bus came to the hotel on time and we arrived very quickly to the park. The only con would be the fact that they only inform you about the paid activities, even though there are a lot of free activities which are just as fun but you have to go out on your own to find them. Look at a map prior to going and make a plan otherwise you will miss a ton of good activities. They told us our bus was leaving at 8:10 pm. We got there at 8:01 pm and our bus was already gone. Luckily, they had another bus going in the same direction which was able to drop us off. It was rather smooth!

It is a beautiful large park. I think for what I paid more things should have been included. The extra price for swimming with the dolphins, speed boat and mantees was a bit much. My family really enjoyed it, so that is all that matters.

Dear visitor, We thank you for your visit. We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed our 40 attractions included with the admssion ticket, including our underground rivers and Xcaret Mexico Espectacular show. We would like to share with you that some activities are not included in the standard rate due to high maintenance costs and more personalized experience.

Thank you again for your time, and we hope you will visit us again soon. Best regards Gabriela S B2B Customer Service

Worst experience ever. Paid $340 for Priority Access to the entire Xcaret experience. Got there and it was an additional $130pp for dolphins/Adrenaline boat. Rain and wind destroyed whole experience. Couldn't get a taxi at 10pm to return to hotel after 14 hours wasted time. Livid to say the least

Horrible. I do not recommend this agency. Do not intent to buy anything with this agency. Get your tickets directly from the tour. I paid for my tickets and transportation. First of all they did not put the correct pickup hours in the ticket, andthey never picked me up. And they did not want to give me a refund. They don’t call you to pick you up. They are very irresponsible. THEY STOLE MY MONEY AND DID NOT PROVIDE ME ANY SERVICE. ||| Horrible. No recomiendo esta agencia. No intente comprar nada con esta agencia. Obtenga sus boletos directamente del tour. Pagué mis boletos y transporte. En primer lugar, no pusieron las horas correctas de recogida en el billete, nunca me recogieron. Y no querían devolverme el dinero. No te llaman para que te recoja. Son muy irresponsables. ME ROBARON EL DINERO Y NO ME PRESTARON NINGÚN SERVICIO

Estimada Jennifer, Antes que nada agradecemos se haya tomado el tiempo en compartirnos sus comentarios. Entendemos su caso, por ello es importante mencionar que el cupón que la agencia les manda indica que el horario que muestra es "informativo" y que al tener un servicio con transporte tendrá el "comprador" que contactar a Grupo Xcaret para confirmar su horario especifico de pick up como mínimo 24 horas antes de su visita. En cuestión del reembolso al ser una compra directa con una agencia ellos tienen sus propias políticas de cancelación, que al hacer la compra uno acepta. Lamentamos lo sucedido y en caso de dudas o comentarios adicionales nos reiteramos al pendiente. Isabel O. Grupo Xcaret – Servicio al cliente.

our tour guy Juan Pablo was very informative they arrived on time for the pick up. On the bus they explained everything in detail to us, we were amazed how everything was so organized, easy to display around everything has numbers so you cant get lost. The buffet was amazing go to Laguna Buffet you will enjoy it believe me. We took the bus way back earlier and we have no problems getting back into our hotel. Me and my husband had a great experience, will come back with family and friends.
