5 days in Cancun Itinerary

Few destinations in Mexico dazzle visitors quite like Cancun, a modern resort town filled with glitzy hotels sitting on picturesque and well-developed Caribbean beaches.

Bring the kids along to La Isla Shopping Village and Av Kukulkan. Venture out of the city with trips to Scuba & Snorkeling (in Playa del Carmen), Cobá Zona Arqueológica Cobá (in Coba) and Xkopek Parque Apicola (in Valladolid). The adventure continues: whizz through the canopy at some of the top local zipline courses and adventure parks, kick back and relax at Playa Delfines, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Catedral de la Santisima Trinidad, and look for gifts at Joyería Ambarte.
