“ Which tour would you recommend....Xcaret or Tulum/Xel-ha ”
Dec 19, 2006, 10:17 PM

As a frequent visitor to cancun I can't believe I can't make up my mind!!! But both look incredible, which one would you guys recommend? And does anyone know how much the Sea Trek and the swimming with the dolphins is at Xcaret?

We are a group of 4 that are going, all mid 20's. Looking for a fun full day tour with a little culture and sightseeing. Which both these tours offer, so we are in a bind in which one to do.

Definitely Xel-Ha! We skipped the Tulum tour and spent the entire day at Xe-Ha and loved it!

We also skipped Tulum and did the all day Xel-Ha. We did all inclusive and had a great meal and wonderful margaritas. After we got done snorkeling and enjoying the park, we found an excellent bartender and two loungers and totally enjoyed our day.

It's one tour I would do again.
