The food selections were cooked amazing and the beverages were on point. I recommend this for people of all ages.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 82 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $109

Sail from Cancun around sunset on a well-kept catamaran with a bilingual crew, open bar, music, and a light spread of shrimp, meats, cheeses, hummus, and bread. Hotel pickup is included, but confirm your exact pickup time, since 5:30 pm is the sailing start, not the van departure.

“DO NOT BOOK!! Don’t get me wrong the sailing itself was beautiful and the crew was very nice, but the transportation to and from was HORRIBLE! Our driver was 15 min late, we then proceeded to sit on the side of the road for another 30 min waiting for another van to bring us passengers, so we ended up being late and started the excursion late and the crew didn’t make up for the missed time. When we left we were told we would be dropped off at 9pm, but didn’t arrive back until 9:45pm and missed our dinner reservation we planned for. Very unorganized and the transportation ruined the…”

Spend about seven and a half hours with a Maya community near Parque Dos Ojos. You’ll learn tortilla making, join a bonfire purification, enter a hot temazcal, swim in a cenote, and eat a traditional dinner. Guide Louisa has received praise for her warm, clear hosting.

“The Mayan dinner, the cenotaph and the ceremony were all memorable. However this was advertised as a small group activity but was definitely not. We started as a small group and then joined other groups bringing total to over 30 people. Transportation was late and guide seemed to lack knowledge there were a number of times we did not know what was going on”

Maya Temazcal Night Ceremony from Cancun with Cenote Swim and Dinner

12.Maya Temazcal Night Ceremony from Cancun with Cenote Swim and Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 11 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $119

Travel from Cancun to Dos Palmas for a Maya fire ritual and temazcal ceremony led by a shaman, then cool off in a cenote and learn to make tortillas before dinner. Guides may speak several languages. The evening lasts longer than the stated four hours because of the long transfers.

“This was an awesome experience. Being in the temazcal was incredibly intense, but it felt amazing to be able to make it through the whole ceremony. The guides were very helpful and told everyone many times how they could let the shaman know that they needed to leave the temazcal before the ceremony was over if it was too much for them. One person left as soon as it started, others in the middle, and a couple just before it ended, and there were no issues, those people were let out promptly. I would recommend doing a little research on the culture and their use of the ceremony before going…”

“Everything went very smooth and was better than imagined. Minuses for: The location they provide is off and you might end at the wrong end of the marina, creating callenges to get in. Not all information get passed on to the crew, especially regarding allergics. But thank's to the crew and especially to the chef, it worked out fine.”
