Sunny Cancun Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
Cancun is surrounded by Caribbean beaches and also features great shopping, snorkeling, scuba diving, nature exploring, sightseeing, fine dining, and (after kids go to bed) nightlife! It's a great opportunity to learn about other cultures by visiting and staying at the Riviera Maya.Quick Tips: Xcaret: this is one of the places I like most because of the underground rivers and the pre-Hispanic night ball game. La Isla: a good place for shopping at really low prices. The interactive aquarium at La Isla: you'll learn a lot about sea life and if you're brave enough, you can feed a shark!!

Restaurant

This is kind of an "oldies but goodies" place like in the '60s with music and all! There are cheeseburgers, cherry cokes, malts, and my favorites--chilli beans.

La Isla Shopping Village Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Shopping"

Quote:
There are a lot of brand-name retailers, and the best part of this is that there are some stablishments that are duty free, so you can get very good prices on shopping for some, like D & G, Tommy Hilfiger, Mossimo, DKNY, Nike, etc.

Xcaret Best of IgoUgo

Attraction

Quote:
What I liked most was the Pueblo Maya because it shows more about another civilization-the way they used to built their homes is amazing! One thing that I would like to recommend is the coral reef walk-they'll put you in some kind of helmet and a pair of boots and you'll be able to take a walk through the reef!
