One suggestion we have if you decide to visit Xcaret is to consider purchasing the “Plus” package, as it includes a rather bountiful buffet meal, snorkel equipment and locker service in the “Plus Area.” The park also presents a number of other shows throughout the day, like an entertaining horse exhibition and the amazing Ceremonia Ritual de los Voladores (the Ritual Ceremony of the Flying Men). The evening show, Xcaret Mexico Espectacular, was a spectacular presentation of Mexico’s history, Mayan rituals such as the ancient Mayan ball game, and colorful demonstrations of Mexican folklore and traditions, a number of which are recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. Francis of Assisi Chapel the colorful Mexican cemetery the re-created Mayan village and a few archaeological sites of Mayan ruins. We enjoyed some of the many cultural exhibits, like the two unique Mexican chapels, the Chapel of Guadalupe and the St. The park also has an impressive coral reef aquarium, butterfly pavilion, spider monkey island, manatee lagoon, bat cave, and flamingo flock. We also enjoyed many of the animal exhibits including JaguarIsland, the sting ray encounter, the giant sea turtle exhibit, and the hundreds of scarlet macaws in the bird sanctuary. One of our favorite activities was swimming Xcaret’s underground rivers, a unique natural feature of the MayanPeninsula. We were a little disappointed that we didn’t have another day to take advantage of the park’s Second Day – Half Price offer.
#X CARET ECO ARCHEOLOGICAL PARK FULL#
We spent a full day at Xcaret, staying for the nighttime performance of Xcaret Mexico Espectacular but we still didn’t get to experience everything the park has to offer. Xcaret is a unique eco-archaeological park that features an impressive blend of nature and Mayan and Mexican cultures, offering visitors an incredible array of activities, shows, and exhibits.

Xcaret (pronounced “eesh-karette”) is the most popular and well known of the Experiencias Xcaret parks. In Riviera Maya we found the perfect solution with a company called Experiencias Xcaret, which operates a variety of eco-archeological parks and tours to many of the YucatanPeninsula’s historical sites. But unlike some travelers to these warm climes who spend everyday just vegging under a palapa on the beach drinking margaritas, we always try to immerse ourselves in a destination by experiencing activities and attractions that provide a flavor of the locale. Recently we enjoyed a fabulous escape from the horrid winter cold we have been having in the Northeast by spending a week in the glorious warmth of Cancun and the Riviera Maya.
