I ordered a pozole from the shop, Las Lupitas, and it was amazing! Best meal of my whole trip. It felt homey and filling. Order the Aguas frescas they have. Very cheap and the prizes are all posted on most of their banners. My meal was a total of $8. Check this area on weekends (Friday-Sunday)! There's singers and venders and lots of street food.

Book this tour!! I went with my husband and we both cannot stop raving about this excursion. We…read morewere debating between this, and xplor- very happy with our decision. Transportation was right on time, no transfer to another bus, or another stop, or (like other excursions we've been on). Also it took less than an hour from the hotel zone. The guys working at Selvatica went above and beyond. What a nice group of people working. Every single person working was non stop going, and still were so happy and nice. They made us feel comfortable, and made our day so enjoyable. It is a guided, organized experience so you're guaranteed to do everything that you signed up for. Barely any wait, and you're basically with the same group the whole time. The light 'snack', is a turkey sandwich, and then you get lunch (tacos/fajitas) at the end. There's a very cool bar, the place itself is picture worthy, you feel like you're in a tree house! Highly recommend doing this. There are lockers there, but can't bring phones on most of the activities. There are photographers (hanging from zip lines!), and photos for purchase at the end. $100, however they came with nearly 150 photos, worth the purchase. Recommend - wearing comfy clothes, bring a swim suit, and if you have crocs id wear those.

I highly recommend doing this as there are a lot of walking paths that allow you to access the coast. There is a lot more to see than meets the eye! Make sure to bring 10 peso coins if you would like to use the restroom as they are not free! There were ice cream and pizza stands as well as many instagram worthy moments! Do not go to Isla Mujeres without going to Punta Sur! :)

This is a small park in downtown Cancun away from the hotel zone. We visited due to an article I…read morefound for cheap things to do. It's very wooded and jungle-like even though it's in the middle of town. There's a big wide trail for people to walk/jog on. I was hoping to see some wildlife as we were walking, but there wasn't much at the start. However, as we continued, we saw some movement ahead! There were a TON of coatis! It was a family group foraging on both sides of the trail. They completely ignored the runners who went by us. One little guy even ran right by me! I had never seen these animals before, and it was such a treat! There is a small museum which we didn't visit. We were too hot from the walk. There is also a small pond area where there are turtles and a crocodile. It's free to get in so it's a good place to explore if you want something more quiet and laid back on your travels.

This park is a recommended point of interest on Isla Mujeres. As you approach the park, there are…read moreplenty of places out front to park golf carts or other vehicles (if you get there early enough). After you pay a small fee to enter, you begin your trek by passing through a few gift shops, convenience stores, and a relaxing covered patio bar. Continue the walking path and you'll encounter breath taking ocean views, wildlife, plants and flowers indigenous of the area. At this point, there is very little shade and you are exposed to direct sunlight. Be prepared by carrying bottled water, sunscreen, hats, comfortable walking shoes, and sun glasses! This popular attraction is built around Mayan ruins in combination with local modern art work and sculptures scattered throughout. Large remnants of an ancient temple reside on one end of the peninsula near a cliff. There are plenty of photo opportunities here! Numerous trails and even a cave can be explored, along with scenic views of the surrounding ocean. If it wasn't so hot out and we weren't so limited in our walking abilities, I would have loved to spend more time searching the trails. I'm sure we missed out on many more sights to see!

This small Mayan temple ruins is located on the southern tip of Isla Mujeres. The most impressive…read morething about this site is when you think how difficult it must have been to reach this island off the coast of Cancun centuries ago. It is possible that this "temple" was merely a lighthouse, and that the actual Temple of Ixchel, the goddess of the moon, was somewhere else. When Hernando Cortez got here in 1517, the only inhabitants on the island were the priestesses of the goddess Ixchel, and that's how "Isla Mujeres" (Island of women) got its name. The temple and the surrounding cliffs and sea make for some beautiful and breathtaking views and incredible photos. I saw a review that referred to this temple as "a pile of rocks". Wow. Some people are really hard to please. In my opinion, this temple and the nearby lighthouse are the only things worthwhile on this otherwise overly touristy island.
