Stop 1
Upon arrival at the park, you will receive a detailed map that will allow you to customize your tour and enjoy the more than 50 activities at your own pace.
We suggest you start your day by visiting the Plus area where you have lockers where you can leave the things you are not going to use during the day. The entrance to the underground rivers is a few meters from the plus area, so we recommend you start with the water activities. At the entrance you will receive a bag (portable locker) where you can put everything you do not want to wet in the river of your choice. This bag will be given to you at the end of the tour.
At the end of the river route, enjoy the natural pools and the cove for swimming. Enjoy a delicious buffet meal at the restaurant of your choice, including a beer and unlimited refreshing drinks such as coffee and aguas frescas.
Visit the Coral Reef Aquarium, the Butterfly Garden and the Aviary; the cultural shows and to finish the show México Espectacular.
