Tulum Tower

You will arrive at our lobby bar where we get ready, store your personal belongings in our lockers, register and enjoy a delicious margarita or piña colada. After a few minutes we went to sit in our revolving gondola where 16 people can fit, we fasten our seatbelts and fly! We climb 35 meters high very slowly, slowly turning 360 degrees, so that everyone can enjoy a moving and unique view. Being upstairs my clients receive very important and interesting information about the Mayan civilization and the region. Then we will take some spectacular photographs, after (30) thirty minutes we go down very slowly. Finally, we went through our souvenir and photography shop. The duration of the experience is (30) thirty minutes, and it is offered in Spanish.

First time getting on this tower; it goes 118 ft up and you spend about 10 minutes up top, taking in the view of the whole area; definitely worth the price, about 8 USD per person; the view is excellent; great service from Salvador, the tower operator; will definitely come again.

Observatorio Mazatlan 1873

Take a step into history on a funicular ride. Admire the greatness of the port from the top of the Cerro del Vigía where you will live a trip to the past inside one of the oldest buildings in the city, where at the same time you will share the pleasure of knowing traditions in the mezcal process and being part of nature participating in the conservation of rescued birds in a space of care and education. Live it up and create a unique memory.

I got to learn about the culture of Mazatlan and the production of tequila and Mezcal in Mexico. I also had a wonderful time with my family and enjoyed a cold beer with the best view in Mazatlan.

Perfect place to see Cancun from above. Wish it was higher though, but it delivers what's promised. You can either buy tickets at the entrance, or use your free trial of the tower once you've got Xcaret tickets. Usually, queues aren't too bad and, as the elevator ascends, a guided tour audio commences depicting all aspects of the city of Cancun. It a really great one, and a tour to the tour is highly recommended. The whole tour takes around 25/30 minutes, and the air con is just perfect.

We visited the Estrella de Puebla in the evening. There was a short wait of 3-5 minutes and we were directed into a gondola. The revolution took approximately 25 minutes and we were able to enjoy the view of the city lights of Puebla.

Reviewed By YN2005 - Toronto, Canada

It is located only a couple of blocks from the Malecón, going up Mina Street. There is a great little lighthouse, a little climb to the top of the spiral staircase You have a nice view of the entire Bay of Banderas, the church and surrounding areas from above the rooftops. If you are able to, you must hike to this lookout. The trip is worth it!
