Things to do in Cancun, Quintana Roo: The Best Shopping Tours

May 20, 2022 Roseanne Arnett

Sunny Cancun has much more to offer than its party-town reputation might suggest. Plenty of gorgeous, drama-free family resorts cater to folks who want to experience the tropical Yucatan climate. There are significant Mayan ruins here, such as El Rey and the Yamil Lu’um, a crumbling tower of pale gray stone. Learn more about this ancient civilization at the Museo Maya de Cancun. For a literal taste of Mexico, take a tour of the Museo Sensorial del Tequila.

The adventure starts with the zipline course, ride above the rainforest trees on this 9 different lines to fly in distinct positions, it can be like superman, spiderman or the traditional way, hanging seated on your harness. Walk in the sky on 4 hanging bridges and feel the adrenaline running while you’re up in heaven, then you can jump down from a tree on a bungee style rope. After all this air-excitement it’s time to run the vehicles on this off road adventure, you will get dusty, muddy and wet, this will enhance the experience of driving on Polaris vehicles through the jungle. It takes approximately 25 minutes to get to the cenote to relax a little by swimming in the cool water on the natural pool and just surrounded by the Mother Nature. Go back to the headquarters to end the tour having a great lunch and check your pictures to have a souvenir of this amazing trip.

We were sooo excited to do this. There are so many activities to do! I felt we did not have enough time! You don't actually get the golf cart to yourself; they drive you. I wanted to stop at one place and go to the main street but not enough time so just stopped at the Isla bead shop. The kid area was closed down and we were not warned of this. The large slide was also closed down. My done did enjoy the 2 slides that were open. The dock is in such baaadddd shape! the snorkel trip was prefect for us and the kiddos. Very attentive beach waiters. they always made sure we had a drink in our hands
