Go Kayak Cancun

Canoe & kayak tour agency

👍👍 A breathtaking perspective on a place often overlooked. Among the hubbub of all the tourist attractions in Cancun, little is more impressive than the mangrove forest nestled right by the hotel zone. Filled to the brim with life, go kayak allowed me to experience firsthand the wonders of the brackish...

Cancun Food Tours

Tour operator

👍👍 Nassim was my guide and there was another gentlemen who did all of the driving. Each time I got out or in the vehicle, both guides got out of the vehicle to open the doors for me or grab any items I purchased along the way. Great tour for authentic Mexican food, culture, city views, and shopping. Th...

Cancun Riviera Maya

Sightseeing tour agency

👍👍 This was my first time coming to Casa Maya Hotel. If you are looking for the total package deal for a hotel here it is.

Parque Gaia

Park

👍👍 Do not, I repeat, do not bring a beer into this park. This park is awesome but the super corrupt police nearly brought me to jail and tried to extort $400 out of me for having a single beer here. Otherwise, love this place. Scary police here. Beware!

Bridge

👍 This bridge is an iconic point in the hotel zone of Cancun. No to many years ago you could walk under the bridge from one side of the avenue to the other.
