    My wife and I are going to the Yucatan and need dining recommendations as well as any sightseeing tips.

    While you're in the western part of the Yucatan Peninsula, definitely have your driver take you on the Ruta Puuc, a series of 5 or 6 lesser-known (but nonetheless spectacular and archeologically significant) Mayan sites. The major highlights include Labna and Uxmal. Fewer tourists generally mean better enjoyment, especially in the Yucatan.

    Further east (in central Yucatan), of course, you'll want to see one of the 7 New World Wonders: Chichen Itza. Be prepared for a throng of tourists.

    On the Caribbean (eastern) side of the peninsula, stay in Playa del Carmen or the Riviera Maya area. in terms of properties, we liked The Tides (formerly known as Ikal del Mar). Definitely go see Tulum (again, expect hordes of tourists), which is one of the only Mayan ruins on the coast.

    Go exploring a cenote (cenotes are deep sinkholes which dot the Yucatan landscape). You can go spelunking in them. If you like organized amusement parks, Xel-Ha and Xcaret are both worth their admission prices (I recommend a full day for either one).

    Thanks from: Merton Guin

    I love Riviera Maya is a wonderful place to rest, natural contact, beaches, I been two times and every time I found new things to do. I lived the experience swim with dolphins in Riviera Maya. I can touch, kiss, hug and dance with dolphins last activity was the best “foot push” where two dolphins pushed me at my feet across the pool. What a feeling this is! The second time I went a Sian Ka'an is a natural reserve where I can saw turtles and dolphins in their natural habitat too far, row kayaks, I liked natural contact. I prefer keep my memories swim with dolphins in Riviera Maya.
    Cancun is beautiful every way. It’s great to all family
