Xcaret Plus — the Flagship Culture & Nature Park

Xcaret brings together tropical nature, Mexican culture and water attractions on a single site, built around a full day where you choose your own route at your own pace. The park spreads across a seafront plot, criss-crossed by shaded paths. Choose your park carefully before booking: this is the group's family and culture park, and younger visitors often prefer Xplor or Xel-Ha.

The underground rivers are its signature: three courses carved into the limestone, swum with a life jacket and helmet, between stalactites and occasional openings onto the jungle. Elsewhere, an aviary, a reef aquarium, a butterfly house and enclosures for turtles and tapirs. The buffet meal is served once only during the day, before three in the afternoon, with drinks included at that point only. The day ends with México Espectacular, a two-hour night-time show with three hundred performers that retraces the country's history. In high season the partner applies a surcharge on the rate: we confirm the exact amount when you send your request. Ten park activities are also extra, including swimming with dolphins, sharks, rays and manatees, the speedboat, massages and scuba diving. Souvenir photos and the meal served during the evening show are not included either.

Good to know: the activity runs every day, with transport included from Playa del Carmen or Cancún. In high season the rate goes up by 10 €.
