Wonderful venue , Amazing show and a feast for eyes and ears
I have booked this last minute when realizing the venue is close to my resort
The venue itself is wow and wow .
The organization is professional and smooth .They accompany every guest into theatre and explain drink orders and so on.
The show is just the right time length to enjoy.Drunks are pricey for Mexico but right for such venue.
I went for the evening show and if you are in the area go for it

Order wrong tickets due to their website glitch, no refunds and one to help.
Careful when ordering form their website. It defaults to child tickets and if you purchase those by mistake, there are no refunds and no one helps. The show is mediocre.

The cost for digital...
The cost for digital photos are INSANE. Total ripoff.
$5K Mexican pesos for 3 sets of digital only photos (3 different set ups).
Operator response
Dear Chung..
We are very sorry that you felt the cost of the digital photos was high. We understand that 5,000 Mexican pesos can be a significant expense for some people.
We appreciate your feedback and will take it into account for future reference. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to let us know.

Vidanta vacation membership
The place was beautiful. However, they push you to buy into a membership. They offer you several free cruises and show you certificates for the same. Don’t, don’t buy into this it’s a total scam. The cruise certificates have a significant charge when you go to use them and it lands up costing more than the cruise itself. Do not waste your money.
Operator response
Hello. This is most likely a confusion, we do not offer memberships for any hotel. If you booked through Viator, you just get the service you booked and that is it. We recently added this activity to our catalogue and the only two reservations we have so far are for May 30th and September 18th...
