What a great night! Beautiful boats, amazing food and our guides, Rodrigo and Memo were incredible fun!! You will make fast friends with your boat mates as you float on the river. Stopping only to dance and enjoy various styles of Mexican music performed by live bands. If you are staying at an Xcaret hotel, the bus transportation is easy and comfortable.

To start with we were annoyed as, getting to the park, we waited 45 mins in the reception for the pick up. They tell you to be there 15 mins early and then they were late. It was a huge coach blasting loud music with very loud people on and different hotel pickups. We are a couple in our late 20s just for reference and it was even too much for us. I recommend just making your own way there for your sanity. When we got on the way, the actual drive to the park however wasn’t too long - around 20 minutes.
The walk down to the boat from the entrance to the park is a little way, with a wobbly bridge and a little steep in places walk way, so I’d suggest wearing comfortable and sensible shoes :). There are shops etc. along the way.
We were first to get on the boat and, again, had to wait a loooong time for the boat to fill up so we could leave as people were shopping, in the bathroom and/ or walking around. On the boats, there are coolers with beers, some dips, pics de gallo, fried crickets in the middle to share and on each person’s place some tortillas and what looked like pork scratchings on. It was very tasty. My husband loved the crickets and ate loads of them!
When it eventually left, we initially felt a little isolated as everyone else on the boat was Spanish and talking all together. Although I can speak a little bit of Spanish, we had difficulty keeping up with the conversation. We had also specifically pressed for an English speaking tour guide when booking, so it would have made sense to put us on the boat with the American groups that were there. Our tour guide was great and did speak fantastic English but often just spoke in Spanish - I suppose majority rules.
Floating along the waterways was cool, we even saw a little raccoon on the way! Other boats were chanting, singing, playing drinking games and chugging beers. Our tour guide had everyone introducing themselves, taking shots of tequila and drinking beers, It was a little frat boy style but we are English and love a drink, so really enjoyed it - I can imagine it would be a different experience if you don’t like drinking alcohol. We drank SO much tequila. By the end, the guide had everyone drinking it out of the bottle together, so we felt more included and people then made more of an effort to speak in English and us in the best Spanish we could.
Set up around the park are mariachi and other traditional Spanish music/ bands where you stop off for 1 song and can get up on the boat, listen to the music and dance. A lot of other boats stop at the same time so it is a great community feel and was super fun. By the end, many tequilas in, we were all dancing around the boat, in a conga line around the table and having a great time.
One of the stops was to get the mains of traditional Mexican food. It was all absolutely DELICIOUS! And nice to hear about all the food and where it comes from in Mexico and its origins. After dinner, we stopped off at this island for 15 minutes so they could clean the boat and we could all go to the bathroom. We really enjoyed this stop as there was music and people dancing and having a great time. The staff all really worked hard to clean the boat, turn it around quickly and set up for dessert. Once back on the boat, we were again guided through all of the different Mexican candies which they were cool to try, some nicer than others, as we floated back to the dock.
Unfortunately, again there was another long wait to leave and go back to the hotel as people took their sweet time coming back to the bus… god only know what they were doing and our poor guide was trying to corral people back. At this point we were desperate to go back. It’s a shame a nice experience is spoiled a bit by all the waiting.
Would recommend as a one off experience but definitely get your own transport there so that it doesn’t feel as long!!
